NHTI Concord's Community College Manufacturing Processes I (MP 101)

This course covers fundamentals of machining processes using traditional machine tools: lathe, milling machine, surface grinder, and cutoff saw. An in-depth coverage of shop safety is presented. The use of standard precision measuring tools including micrometers, dial calipers, vernier scales, etc. is presented. Basic machine setup practices and common cutting tool materials are introduced. Machining operations: turning, milling, grinding, drilling, boring, reaming, and tapping are covered. The lab portion of the course allows students to apply classroom theory to actual machine tools using precision measuring tools.
