Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students taking part in this course obtain knowledge about the basic assembly groups in design of CNC machines tools. They will also be able to apply a system approach to their design. They will get an overview of the possibilities of interconnecting branches in the construction of CNC machine tools.

Prerequisites

The expected knowledge is from the field of machine parts and machine mechanisms as well as from the field of basic principles for building of production machines. The student should be orientated in the field of metal cutting technology.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught in the form of consultations, which have the character of explanation of basic principles and theory of the given discipline.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Oral examination.
At the beginning of the study the student is assigned a multidisciplinary issue in the field of design of CNC machine tools to solve. Student's solution is included in the joint assessment.

Aims

The task is to show modern solutions of CNC machine tools and to point out the limit possibilities of these machines in terms of accuracy, performance and service life. Another goal is for the student to acquire a system approach in designing a CNC machine tool. The possibilities of interdisciplinary solutions in the construction of the main groups of CNC machine tools will also be shown.
