Advanced Machining & Metal Forming Processes

This course provides comprehensive knowledge of advanced machining, cutting, forming, and metalworking processes used in modern manufacturing industries. Participants learn the working principles and applications of honing, drilling, tapping, reaming, grooving, milling, and turning operations. The course covers sheet metal processes such as blanking, piercing, drawing, forming, trimming, notching, and bending. It introduces pipe cutting, swaging, broaching, and thread rolling techniques used for precision manufacturing. Participants understand the fundamentals of cam lobe milling and its applications in automotive component manufacturing. The course explains machine tools, cutting tools, workholding methods, and process parameters. It covers selection of suitable machining and forming processes based on component requirements. Participants gain knowledge of dimensional accuracy, surface finish, tolerances, and quality control. Practical considerations such as tool wear, defects, productivity, and process optimization are also discussed. The course helps participants develop industry-oriented skills for efficient and precise manufacturing operations.
