Learning Outcomes

Deformation of Metals

Mechanism of Plastic Deformation

Machining Processes: Single Edge Tool, Types of Chips

Lesson Summary

In this module you will learn about the basics of machining and subtractive manufacturing process. Machining is a manufacturing process of making useful product by the removal of the material. Machining processes can be traditional or conventional.

Tool Geometry: Single Point Cutting Tool Specifications

Tool Specifications, Conversion Of Tool Angles, Multi-Point Cutting Tools

Mechanics of Orthogonal Cutting and Force Relationships

In this module you will learn about tool geometry. It is basically referred to some specific angles or slope of the salient faces and edges of the tools at their cutting point.

Determination of Stress, Strain, and Strain Rate

Measurement of Shear Angle

Other Analysis for Force Relationships

In this module you will learn about Orthogonal Cutting. Along with learning about the strains and stresses in orthogonal cutting, experimental study of orthogonal cutting and other models.

Mechanics of Oblique Cutting

Measurement of Cutting Forces

In this module you will learn about oblique cutting and measurement of cutting forces. Along with learning about that measurement of chip flow direction are classified into two categories; direct and indirect measurement.

Diploma in Mechanics in Machining - First Assessment

You must score 80% or more to pass this assessment.

Thermal Aspects Of Machining: Temperatures in Orthogonal Cutting

Tool Wear and Tool Life and Tool Life Equations

Economics in Machining

In this module we will learn about thermal aspects of machining. Heat is generated when conversion of mechanical energy takes place. In tool wear and tool life, wear can be caused by adhesion, abrasion, erosion etc.

Turning And Shaping & Planning Operation

Milling and Drilling

Grinding of Metals and Mechanics of Grinding Process

In this module you will learn about the practical machining operations and how turning is used to produce axisymmetric components. Along with learning about that milling operation requires a milling machine, fixture, workpiece and a milling cutter.

Introduction to Advanced Machining Processes

In this module you will learn about machining processes. In mechanical processes, there is a physical contact between the workpiece and another material. Along with learning about electrochemical machining is the process governed by the Faraday’s law of electrochemistry.

Abrasive Machining and Finishing Operations

CNC Machines and CNC Programming

In this module you will learn about the finishing processes and CNC machine, difference between machining and finishing. Along with learning about numerical control.

Diploma in Mechanics in Machining - Second Assessment

Diploma in Mechanics in Machining - Final Assessment

This free course provides an analytical basis which relates cutting forces, tool stresses to the cutting conditions.

Diploma in Mechanics of Machining

This free online course on Diploma in Mechanics of Machining starts with explaining the physics of the cutting process. The objective of this study is to provide an analytical basis which relates cutting forces, tool stresses, and temperature, etc. Non-traditional machining processes are now being widely used to generate intricate and accurate shapes in materials, like titanium, stainless steel and other difficult-to-machine alloys.

Machining Processes: Finishing Processes and CNC Machine Course Assessment

Learn what a computer numerical controlled (CNC) machine does and how to program one for the machining process.

Machining Processes: Finishing Processes and CNC Machine

This course covers the finishing processes produced by a CNC machine. These machines are primarily used in the manufacturing industries like mills and the focus will be on the services it provides in these industries. On top of learning about the type of finishes this machine can achieve, you will also study the more fundamental part of programming the machine. This is vital for an operator to know.
