Main themes Methodology in the mechanical workshop and for quality assurance. Basic principles and machine-tools for machining by cutting, erosion and electrical discharge. Basic principles for manufacturing by forming, casting, sintering and welding.
Aims To give a good understanding of the issues and challenges in mechanical production: - How is manufactured a given part ? Through which process and with what type of machine-tool ? - What are the basic principles of machining by cutting, by erosion, and by the so-called "non conventional" methods ? - What are the basics principles of manufacturing by forming, casting, sintering and welding ?
Content The importance of the industry of mechanical production. The challenges in manufacturing. Machining principles and machine-tool classification. - Machining by cutting : planning and turning, boring and drilling, milling, broaching and tapping. - Machining by erosion. Rectification. - Machining with the non-conventional processes. Electrical discharge machining. Forming. - Classification of the forming processes according the deformation temperature, the stresses in the matter and the deformation modes. - Forming of the flat products. Stretching, drawing and forming limit diagram. Deep drawing. - Computation of the forces required for forming. Rolling, drawing and extrusion. - Lubrication. - Presses characteristics. Casting : principles, casting sequences, mold design, main casting processes. Sintering : powder production, compaction, sintering, finishing. Welding and adhesive bonding : definition, welded and adhesive bonded joints, main welding processes. Cutting : classification of the processes.
Other information - Prerequisite : MECA 2821 "Design and Machines". - Exercises are laboratories and practices on the main machine-tools by groups of 2 or 3 students. - A part of the examination deals with a discussion of the parts manufactured on the machine-tools by the students during the labs.
