1.0 TITLE: CNC Milling (Non Traditional Machining).

2.0 INTRODUCTION

A non-traditional manufacturing process is defined as a group of processes that remove

accessed material by various techniques based on different source of energy. The cutting
source may in the form of mechanical, thermal, electrical or chemical energy or
combinations of these energies without any direct contact of sharp cutting as in traditional
machining. Extremely hard and brittle materials are difficult to machine by traditional
machining processes such as turning, drilling, shaping and milling. Non-traditional
machining processes are graphed in advanced manufacturing processes. It is employed
when traditional machining processes are not feasible and due to certain satisfactory
justification to special reasons.

3.0 Objective

 To design a basic NC program for CNC Milling.

 To machine a product using the CNC Milling.

4.0 APPARATUS

NC Program, machine controller, rough stock, CNC milling machine, work holding devices and
cutting tool.

5.0 METHOD OF APPROACH

 Design the NC programming
 Uploading the NC program in CAM
 Workpiece preparation and setup the machine
 Milling process

6.0 LAB REPORT PREPARATION:

The report should include the following items:
 NC program using CATIA software
 Observation of the product quality

*Student should use the standard cover page.
