Large number of industrial parts has to undergo various machining operations for conversion into finished products. Appropriate selection and usage of machine tool, work holding devices, cutting tools and process parameters plays very crucial role in obtaining good quality product at optimum cost. This course will make student familiar with fundamentals of cutting mechanics, kinematics, constructional features and selection criterion for various basic machine tools and automates with some basic exposure to conventional work holding devices and cutting tools and tool holders used on the same machines.
The theory should be taught and practical should be carried out in such a manner that students are able to acquire different learning out comes in cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain to demonstrate following course outcomes.
i. Explain mechanics of cutting.
ii. Classify and explain working of basic machine tools with kinematics.
iii. Observe and conclude the effect of varying tool materials, cutting parameters and work piece materials.
iv. Interpret and select tool and tool holder designation system.
v. Identify the machine tool and select cutting parameters for given job.
vi. Make the job as per given manufacturing drawing.
