Coordinator: Assoc. Prof. E. J. A. Armarego
Prerequisite: 436-241 Introduction to Manufacturing Processes or equivalent
Contact: 26 hours of lectures and 13 hours of tutorial and laboratory work
Timetable: Second semester
Objectives:
On completion students should:
- have a basic understanding of the generation process, cutting action and engineering science phonomena involved in conventional material removal processes
- be able to develop cutting analyses for 'classical' and practical turning and drilling operations for tool design and performance prediction purposes
Content:
Machining as a means of shaping components, chip formation and mechanics of cutting; turning and drilling operations, single point lathe tools and twist drills, prediction of force, torque power, chip flow and surface finish, computerised predictive models for machining processes; cutting fluid action and application. Non-traditional material removal processes.
Assessment:
A two-hour examination paper at the end of semester, a tutorial problem sheet, laboratory reports of up to 15 pages each.
