Metal Cutting Technology Course

WHAT TO EXPECT

The right tooling strategy has a huge impact on machining time and profitability. To develop the best strategy requires proper training in basic metal cutting principles for turning, milling, drilling, parting and grooving, boring and tool holding.

This three-day metal cutting technology course presented in partnership with Sandvik Coromant will give participants a solid foundation in basic metal cutting theory. It will then show how to apply that foundation properly to overcome critical process challenges and develop more efficient and profitable operations. Topics include:

• Insert Manufacturing: Understanding how they are made to understand how they work
• Tool wear patterns and how to use them to correct actions
• Tool maintenance: Productivity and cost savings
• Turning theory: How to apply tools and techniques to achieve best results
• CoroKey: Tool codes and tool selections process
• Milling Theory: How to apply tools and techniques to achieve best results
• Drilling Theory: How to apply tools and techniques to achieve best results
• Parting and Grooving: How to apply tools and techniques to achieve best results
• Boring: How to solve problems that commonly occur with minimal clearance and long overhang
• Threading: Thread types and techniques
• Tapping: Solutions overview and best practices
• Tool Holding: Tool holding solutions & tips for optimal rigidity and modularity
• Machining Economics: Correct application choices and Green Light Machining
• Digital Apps: Tool selectors, machining calculators and cost saving
