Course detail
FSI-HUP-KAcad. year: 2025/2026
The primary objective of this course is to introduce students to the fundamentals of designing and functioning of cutting tools and fixtures in machining, including the selection and utilization of tool materials. Various imaging systems are described for constructing cutting and forming devices and procedures for designing operational fixtures that comply with proposed technology. Concurrently, individual tool materials and their applications within construction of machinery are evaluated. To familiarize oneself with the design, students engage in an individual project to create a basic fixture and tool for machining using modern CAD applications.
