Course Description

The Practical operations of NC (Numerical Controlled) machine tool (such as, Machining Center and NC lathe machine: Turning Center) and Ultra Precision Lathe (UPL) are exercised.

Mainly topics are follows:
1. Principal of the NC machine tools, Structure and its machine elements.
2. Practical operations of the Machining Center (MC)
3. Practical operations of the NC lathe machine
4. Practical operations of the Ultra Precision Lathe (UPL)
5. Basic of the measuring manner of the machining

Course Objectives

An introduction of the operations manner of the precision machining with NC machine tools. Topics, also include the CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing), measurement systems, tooling system and cutting tools.

Grading Policy

Final grade will be calculated according to following, reports for 4 topics (about MC, NC lathe, UPL and Measuring: 100%). To pass, students must earn at least 60 points out of 100.
