Tooling U Introduces Kennametal Classes & CMP Program Development
A new development in the Tooling University and Kennametal
Partnership is the new online CMP (Certified Metalcutting Professional) Program
delivered by Tooling University.
The program clearly and concisely explains the metalcutting process and
provides defined and common tool-selection criteria based on proven cause and
effect relationships among three categories of tool design and application
factors.
CMP courses are divided into three sections:
-
Engineering principles -- identifies tool design features and the application
factors that affect tool performance. This section also establishes
common terminology for all metalcutting tools and processes.
-
Turning processes -- explains how to apply the engineering principles
selection criteria to lathe and turning center applications. This section
includes six cources.
-
Machining Center Processes – explains how to apply the engineering
principles selection criteria to machining center applications. This section
includes four courses.
CMP is specifically designed for the working engineer and other metalcutting
professionals involved in tool management, tool selection, process
optimization, CNC programming, and trouble-shooting.
Professionals who receive CMP certification must also complete the Continuing
Certification Requirements program.

Tooling University representative today.
Remove .001" off
the diameter of a long shaft using an angle head die grinder. (See
example photo)
  Frequently
bearings, gears, cams etc. need to be mounted near the center of long shafts.
One easy way to remove material from a slightly oversize shaft (and save a lot
of sandpaper) is to spin the shaft in a lathe and use an angle head die grinder
mounted with a sanding disk to size the shaft.

Lowering Your Cost of Machining
Competitive pressures are forcing many
manufacturers to investigate new ways to lower their costs.
Makino presents case studies of U.S. shops that have reduced their cost of
machining by implementing horizontal machining centers and explains how you can
too.
