Automated Manufacturing I
This course offers students an introduction to the design and operation of a metals production system (machining, welding, and fabrication). Students will learn how to properly read and create layout drawings. Different aspects of quality control, production planning and procedures, and different types of production manufacturing will be emphasized. This is a hands-on, project-based class where students are able to design and develop various projects. Students use modern equipment such as CNC plasma table, CNC machine tools, and a variety of electric welding equipment. Students develop hard and soft employability skills and explore several occupations in the manufacturing sector. The differentiated instructional approach used in this class provides interesting and challenging activities of all abilities.
