| Introduction to Manufacturing Technology |
|
Safety in Manufacturing Industry
The learner will be able to understand the importance of personal and work-site safety in the manufacturing industry and know how to maintain a safe working environment for themselves and others.
|
|
Careers in Manufacturing Technology
The learner will be able to understand materials and processes (e.g., raw and industrial materials, tooling, packaging), computer-aided manufacturing, and production management (e.g., quality control, accident prevention, inventory control) in relation to manufacturing acitivites. They will work individually or cooperatively (student teams) to demonstrate a pragmatic understanding of these manufacturing concepts through the producation of products.
|
|
Automated Manufacturing Systems
The learner will be able to understand and explain various automated manufacturing systems (such as "just in time"), tool design, design for manufacturing, flexible manufacturing systems, and materials resource planning. They will use computers to design and produce products, control robots, and machines and to write numerical?control programs.
|
|
New and Emerging Technology Systems
The learner will be able to understand the ongoing development of emerging manufacturing technology systems. They will explain the ways in which emerging systems can be integrated into current manufacturing processes.
|
|
Quality Control
The learner will be able to understand the purposes and processes of inspection and quality control in the manufacturing process. They will perform continuous on?line inspections to ensure that parts and products meet design specifications.
|
| Welding Processes |
|
Product Development and Documentation
The learner will be able to understand the basic elements of proper product or project development and documentation (including estimating, codes and specifications, sketching, material and process selection, and print reading) used in welding design. They will read and interpret prints which use standard American Welding Society welding symbols to plan, lay out, and produce welded parts and products.
|
|
Industrial Forming for Welding Fabricati
The learner will be able to understand the safe and efficient use of shears, saws, drilling machines, punches, benders, and presses used in welding fabrication. They will use appropriate industrial forming tools to prepare parts and to ensure proper fit and finish.
|
|
Oxyfuel Gas Processes
The learner will be able to understand the safe and efficient use of oxyfuel processes and equipment to form, separate, and combine metals. They will use the oxyfuel processes of forging, flame cutting, brazing, soldering, and welding to produce parts and products.
|
|
Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)
The learner will be able to understand the functions of shielded metal arc welding machines and consumables and how the equipment used in those functions is properly assembled and set up for various applications. The students will produce weldments, using appropriate machine setup and electrode types as indicated by material type and size, weld position, joint alignment and type, deposition rate, and bead finish.
|
|
Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW)
The learner will be able to have a basic understanding of the machines and consumables used in gas metal arc welding and similar processes. They will produce weldments, using the appropriate shielding gas, wire type and size, type of metal transfer, and machine setup as indicated by type and thickness of metal, weld position, penetration, and type of weld bead.
|
|
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW)
The learner will be able to have a basic understanding of the machines and supplies used in the gas tungsten arc welding process. They will produce weldments, using appropriate joint preparation; machine setup; filler material; electrode size, type, and shape; and shielding gas type and flow as indicated by type and thickness of metal, weld position, type of joint, and the welding environment.
|
|
Resistance Welding
The learner will be able to understand the principles of electric resistance and the methods used in resistance welding. They will select the appropriate electrode type, electrode force, squeeze time, and current settings to complete joints of a product, using resistance or "spot" welding.
|
|
Special Processes
The learner will be able to have a basic understanding of special processes for welding or cutting unusual materials, extremely thick materials, or very thin metals; increasing productivity; and operating in unusual conditions or locations. They will identify special welding or cutting processes (SMAW underwater, plastics welding, friction welding, FRW electron beam, EBW industrial robots, plasma-arc cutting[PAC], and so forth); describe circumstances in which those processes are used; and explain the advantages and disadvantages of each.
|
| Machine Tool Processes |
|
Tolerance and Dimensioning
The learner will be able to understand concepts of dimensioning. They will follow industry-approved dimensioning standards, using geometric tolerance and drawing interpretation skills when machining parts or products.
|
|
Holding Devices
The learner will be able to understand how to use machine-tooling holding devices. Using safe practices, students will use fixtures, vices, rotary devices, chucks, and hold?down clamps to secure the work in a machine-tool operation.
|
|
Conventional Lathe
The learner will be able to understand the safe and proper operation of the conventional lathe. They will use industry-approved tooling, setups, feeds, cutting speeds, and manufacturing techniques to manufacture parts or products on the lathe.
|
|
Conventional Milling Machine
The learner will be able to understand the safe and proper operation of the conventional milling machine. They will use industry-approved applications or tooling, setups, feeds, cutting speeds, and machining techniques to manufacture parts or products on the milling machine.
|
|
Grinders and Grinding Wheels
The learner will be able to understand the safe and proper operation of grinders. Using safe practices, students will select and test grinding wheels for specific machines and applications, using industryapproved standards. They will use pedestal grinders and surface grinders to manufacture and finish grind parts or products.
|
|
