Educational goals:
The course aims to provide basic knowledge of a wide range of unconventional material-working technologies, technologies which are becoming more and more widespread in industry as a means to solve the problems that can arise from the specific characteristics of a material (hardness, sensitivity to thermal or mechanical damage, etc.), from the geometric levels of tolerance and surface finish required.
Course contents:
1. Classification of unconventional material-working techniques. The need for developing special technologies. The natural tolerance of unconventional processes. Classification of unconventional processes. Characterisitics of utensils, ductability of materials. 2.The energy approach. Utensils as "band" of energy (thermal, mechanical, chemical, etc.). Interaction with the material being worked. Thermal and mechanical alterations and residual tensions. 3. Unconventional material-working processes: - Laser; - Plasma; - EDM/WEDM; - WJ/AWJ; - USM; - CM/ECM ; - Others (ionic/electronic band) - Micro- and nano-machining. For each of these processes, the following will be examined: - basic physical principle; - characteristics of tools and consumables: - selection of work parameters; - types of workable materials; - typical properties and performance of materials (MRR, finish, size and shape tolerance); - material-working installations and cells; - main applications in industry. There will also be practical lessons and classes involving experimentation in the laboratory. 4. Comparison of the technical and economic characteristics of each unconventioanl process. Competitiveness and economic viability of unconventional technologies. Choosing the most suitable material-working technology.
