Curricula

Objectives

Material removal manufacturing methods are the most important manufacturing method group for mechanical construction, and knowing them more deeply is essential when operating in the production tasks of mechanical construction. You will learn to work satisfactorily in manufacturing design and development tasks related to cutting work. The development of your expertise begins with an understanding of the manufacturing processes of typical machine building parts manufactured with cutting work. After that, you will learn the tools and techniques by which you can use the manufacturing processes are being developed. You will also learn how to program NC machine tools and how to use them.

Knowledge and understanding:
After the course, you will have knowledge and understanding of the technology, equipment and tools of the cutting work and you will be able to apply this information in the machining of different materials.

Engineering practice:
You are able to choose and use development methods related to cutting work. You will acquire practical skills in the design of machine parts manufacturing.

Content

The chip removal production methods of machine workshops. Chip removal parameters. The production process of workpieces through chip removal. Attaching a component. The development of machining (the processability of components, impact of automation, development of the tool system). The basics of NC technology and NC programming.
