Toolmaker Training is a conglomerate of the most used skills, we see Metalurgy, GD&T, SOLIDWORKS, MASTERCAM, and MDI mode G-CODE. At the end you get a CERTIFICATION valid in all of the American Continent from SEP-CONOCER EC0788.


MODULE 1


Duration 8 weeks.


Mathematics for Workshop


Topics:


  • Basic Mathematics

  • Geometry

  • Trigonometry


This area of Mathematics focuses on the development of mental agility, preparing the student for the development of research skills, providing professionals for the field. The topics to be investigated, whether a product for purchase, design of fixtures or tools, recommendation of materials, resolution of problems in the area, must have the mental acuity necessary for adequate decision making and problem resolution.


Basic Metallurgy 1


Topics:


  • metal processes

  • Main properties of metals and their alloys

  • Mechanical Properties of Metals

  • Strength in Metals

  • Corrosion Resistance

  • Types of Iron (Ferrous Metals)

  • Types of Steel (Ferrous Metals)

  • Non-ferrous metals and their alloys

  • Metal Working Processes

  • Identification and testing methods for metals



MODULE 2


Duration 8 weeks.


INTRODUCTION

  • WHAT IS GD&T?

  • What is Metrology?

  • Interchangeability between parts

  • What is ASME Y14.5?


SIZING

  • Different types of Dimensions

  • Different types of Tolerances


INTERPRETATION OF REGULATIONS


MMC PERFECT SHAPE


CONTROL PANEL


GD&T RULES


EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULES


SHAPE CHARACTERISTICS

  • Righteousness

  • Flatness

  • Circularity

  • Cylindricity


PROFILE CHARACTERISTICS

  • Line Profile

  • Profile of a Surface


GUIDANCE FEATURES

  • Angularity

  • Perpendicularity

  • Parallelism


LOCATION CHARACTERISTICS

  • Position

  • Concentricity

  • Symmetry


VARIATION CHARACTERISTICS

  • Circular Variation

  • Total Variation


MODIFYING ASPECTS


Topics:


  • Metrology

  • Reading Mechanical Drawings

  • Geometric Tolerances


The direct focus of this area is workshop-oriented GD&T.


The interpretation of the language of geometric tolerances is of utmost importance. The standard on which this module is based is ASME Y14.5 and is aimed directly at its application in the workshop; to the interpretation of plans, not only from the perspective of the draftsman but how this applies physically and directly to manufacturing, this allows verifying the results in already machined parts.
