L 1.1 Metal Cutting

Metal Cutting and Tool Design (MCTD) subject is the combination of two subjects,  first is Metal Cutting and second is Tool Design.

First, we start with Metal cutting.

  • Metal cutting is a material removal process in which a sharp cutting tool is used to mechanically cut away material so that the desired part geometry remains.
  • Most common application: to shape metal parts.
  • Machining is the most versatile and accurate of all manufacturing processes in its capability to produce a diversity of part geometries and geometric features’
  • Machining Processes – Turning, Boring, Milling, Drilling, Shaping, Planing, Broaching, etc.
  • Casting can also produce a variety of shapes, but it lacks the precision and accuracy of machining
