This module introduces learners to conventional machine tools used in manufacturing, designed to provide foundational and practical knowledge in traditional machining. Its primary focus is the lathe, drilling machine, Shaper machine and Milling machine covering their definition, core functions, and detailed examinations of its major components, including their intricate mechanisms for speed, feed, and power transmission. The module extensively classifies various types and details essential machining operations from raw materials to finished product. They further explains critical work-holding devices, emphasizes safety protocols, and provides formulas for necessary calculations. Delves into fundamental mechanical power transmission systems like belt drives and gear trains, complete with design calculations and terminology. Overall, the module is structured to equip students or trainees with both the theoretical principles and practical insights necessary for operating and understanding conventional machine tools in a technical or vocational setting.
