ETM 3510 - Production Tooling

• Students will be able to explain fundamental principles including locating and clamping principles to be followed while designing jigs and fixtures.
• Students will be able to design jigs and fixtures to reduce part variations for a variety of simple parts through problem solving and decision-making activities and applying the fundamentals of production tooling.
• Students will be able to calculate tooling tolerances in order to meet given part tolerances.
• Students will be able to create solid models of jigs and fixtures and will demonstrate the ability to create tooling.
• Students will be able to apply geometrical dimensioning and tolerance to a tooling drawing to better communicate from a tool designer’s perspective.
• Students will be able to resolve simple production problems by demonstrating the skill to build actual tooling prototypes.
• Students will be able to demonstrate the ability to develop tooling instructions for setup and production runs.
• Students will be able to demonstrate the ability to work in a team environment for problem solving.
