ENGT 151 - Cutting & Workholding

Description:ENGT 151 introduces the theory and operation of metal cutting tools used manual and CNC machining. Tools covered include drills and reamers, end mills, mill cutters, tool bits, single-point turning tools, indexable tooling, and thread tap and dies. Topics also include tool selection, machinability of different materials, calculation of speeds and feeds, and spindle horsepower requirements. Elementary heat treatment of metals and case hardening are covered as to how they effect tool selection. Work holding topics include the operation, selection and proper use of chucks, vises, clamps, and custom fixturing. Students will also perform simple operations such as basic grinding, face, turn, bore, knurl, chamfer, center drill, tap, groove, cut tapers, adjust feeds and speeds, mill flat, square surfaces, and make slots. Offered in Spring.
