Advanced Machining Processes

NPTEL is offering online course for undergraduate/ postgraduate students in Advanced Machining Processes.

About the course:

• There is a need for machine tools and processes which can accurately and easily machine the most difficult-to-machine materials and work pieces with intricate and accurate shapes.
• In order to meet these challenges, a number of newer material removal processes have now been developed to the level of commercial utilization.
• These newer methods are also called unconventional in the sense that conventional tools are not employed for metal cutting.
• Instead, energy in its direct form is used to remove the material from the work piece.
• This course aims at bringing the students up-to-date with the latest technological developments and research trends in the field of unconventional / nontraditional / modern machining processes.
