Term Work:

Preparation of power-point slides, which include videos, animations, pictures, graphics for better
understanding theory and practical work – The faculty will allocate chapters/ parts of chapters to groups of
students so that the entire syllabus to be covered. The power-point slides should be put up on the web-site
of the College/ Institute, along with the names of the students of the group, the name of the faculty,
Department and College on the first slide. The best three works should submit to GTU.

List of Experiments:

1. Study of Machine Tools (Lathe, Shaper, Slotter, Planner) – study the types of cutting tools available
and relative motions between cutting tool and work piece on each machine tool. Also derive
capacity and capability of respective machine tools from machine specifications and number of
available attachments to perform variety of operations.
2. Study of Machine Tools (Grinding, Milling, Drilling) – study the types of cutting tools available
and relative motions between cutting tool and work piece on each machine tool. Also derive
capacity and capability of respective machine tools from machine specifications and number of
available attachments to perform variety of operations.
3. Job making on lathe machine
4. Job making on shaper / slotter machine
5. Job making on milling machine
