Course detail

Special Technology of Production

FSI-ESVAcad. year: 2025/2026

The course deals with machining technology - formation of chips, machineability of materials, cutting tool wear, possibilities of evaluation of cutting process, 3D printing technology, and reverse engineering. The innovation of this subject is focused on energy efficiency and sustainability of production in the context of the Green Deal. The innovated lecture and exercise provide a comprehensive overview of the issue of energy intensity of machining and carbon footprint, which allows students to comprehensively analyse the environmental impact of production processes.

The course focuses also on possibilities of metal forming (cutting, bending, deep drawing, spinning, special methods), methods of material separating, methods of solid forming (coining, extrusion, forging). All technologies include the whole technological processes and evaluation of formed materials.

Entry knowledge

Basic knowledge of manufacturing technology - production of steel and its treatment, kinds of materials. Basic information about commonly used technology of machining, forming, welding and casting.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Course-unit credit is awwarded on condition of having attended the all exercises worked out assigned projects during semester.
The exam has a written (or test) and oral part and tests the knowledge acquired injectures and exercises.

 

Attendance at all exercises is necessary. Missed lessons may be compensated for via a make-up tasks by arrangement with the teacher.

Aims

The objective of this course is to teach students how to design technological procedures for individual machining or forming operations, including assessing the suitability of the material being processed, the cutting tool material, and dealing with the issues of both chip-forming and non-chip-forming machining technologies. Additionally, it aims to familiarize students with 3D printing technology and its practical applications.

Study aids
