Manufacturing Methods

The course deals with the most common workshop engineering processing methods from a production engineering perspective: that is to say, the production chain that refines a semi-finished product into an almost finished product. Examples of manufacturing techniques that are studied are forming processing, cutting processing, chip cutting processing, methods for processing complex geometries and methods for creating fine and functional surfaces. For the chip-cutting machining methods, which form a substantial part of the course, the interaction between working materials and tools and the mechanical stresses on the cutting edge that arise in the cutting zone are treated. Finally, the course addresses potential sustainability gains for the manufacturing techniques that the course covers.
