B. MANUFACTURINGTECHNOLOGY SKILLS
OVERALL EXPECTATIONS
By the end of this course, students will:
B1. use technical drawing skills and a design process to create engineering drawings that provide solutions to project development challenges;
B2. select and use the proper materials when manufacturing a product to meet specifications;
B3. apply advanced metrology skills to measure, lay out, and inspect a product;
B4. demonstrate the safe and proper use of tools and equipment when producing various projects to meet specifications.
SPECIFIC EXPECTATIONS
By the end of this course, students will:
B1.1 demonstrate a working knowledge of how the design process is used to develop an effec- tive solution to a manufacturing problem or challenge (e.g., describe and analyse a situation and define the specific problem or need; research criteria, constraints, and availability of materials; generate a number of possible solutions, using techniques such as brainstorming; select the opti- mal solution; test and evaluate the product; repeat steps as necessary);
B1.2 demonstrate the ability to accurately interpret detailed engineering drawings and assembly drawings (e.g., with respect to welding symbols, legends, dimensions, tolerances) related to the development of a project;
B1.3 interpret and/or create sketches or drawings (both manual and computer-aided) that include the measurements and symbols required to complete a project;
B1.4 select appropriate resources and reference materials (e.g., charts, tables, material- and product-related specifications, schematics) when planning a project.
B2. SelectionandUseofMaterials
By the end of this course, students will:
B2.1 select, organize, and prepare appropriate materials for the manufacture of a product
based on material properties (e.g., physical, mechanical, thermal) and design criteria (e.g., hot or cold rolled steel, size and grade of steel drill rod, carbon content, ferrous or non-ferrous metals, type of welding electrode and/or gas);
B2.2 select appropriate materials for a project based on identified criteria such as functionality, cost effectiveness, customer expectations, viability, availability, and sustainability;
B2.3 demonstrate a working knowledge of metallurgy (e.g., hardening, tempering, anneal- ing, quenching) and the mechanical properties of materials (e.g., tensile strength, hardness, ductility, malleability, elasticity).
B3. MetrologySkills
By the end of this course, students will:
B3.1 use the proper measuring tools (e.g., vernier caliper, inside/outside/depth micrometers, dial indicators, height gauges, gauge blocks, sine bars) to precisely measure objects to a specified toler- ance, and calibrate measuring tools using acceptable national standards;
B3.2 apply advanced layout processes when preparing a component or project for production;
B3.3 apply an inspection technique (e.g., statistical process control) to evaluate projects and ensure quality.
