Course Content

This course is designed to provide the Metal Cutting professional with necessary skills to gain optimum performance in Metal Cutting operations. This course is covers six major topics:

a) Mechanics of Metal Cutting will cover tooling from a design perspective. This section starts with a discussion on “How Tools Cut” and progress through the design elements related to turning, milling and drilling. All aspects of cutting geometry will be discussed along with its relationship to the cutting edge, work piece material and power.
b) Materials Technology will start with a discussion of common cutting tool materials and how they relate to each other. A discussion of powder metal technology will start with “How Carbide is made” and progress through modern carbide and ceramic grade technology. Coating technology will include common application methods as well as the latest advances in coating materials.
c) Selection and Application will introduce the tool path method of selecting and applying tooling. This section will be divided into three main operations of turning, milling and hole making. Selection and Application will include processing exercises to provide hands on experience.
d) Machining Economics will cover elements that effect productivity and overall cost, such as establishing operating conditions to gain maximum efficiency; the cause and effect relationship between operating conditions and tool failure; machinability, testing methods and cost justification. e) Overview of Machine Tool Elements and their significance in selection for various applications.
f) Lean Manufacturing provides a delightful experience to customers, an exceptionally high rate of return to shareholders and provides an exciting work environment and growth opportunities to employees. The session gives an overview of lean manufacturing...the why and how lean. Insights of the session are based on successful experiences of Mr. DK Somaiya.
