FF PIPE WELDING I: SMAW

Focuses on welding and fabrication skills used in building welded metal projects. Students will create a working drawing and bill of materials, factor in total costs and weight of their project, cut and tack-weld all components together, and make final welds to complete the job. Welding safety using various welding processes (GTAW, GMAW and SMAW) and safe shop practices will be discussed and demonstrated.

MACHINING

FF FUNDAMENTALS OF FABRICATION

This class is designed to introduce a student to machine tools and machining. Students will learn about precision measuring tools and how to use them, including: how to obtain precise measurements, how to read and understand mechanical drawings, what tolerances are and how a machinist makes parts within the specific dimensions.

FF MACHINE TOOL I

Fundamentals for manual machine tool practices for the lathe, mill, and drill press will be explained and demonstrated during this class. Topics include: machine tool safety, proper drilling speeds, and different types of drill bits and their coatings related to drill press operations. You will work side-by-side with your instructor to complete NIMS machining projects on new ProtoTrak machines

FF MACHINE TOOL III: MILLING

This class provides an introduction to the manual milling machine. The student will learn about each part and function of the machine, machine tool safety, the different cutting tools and materials, as well as different milling operations and set up. Students will make milling projects from drawings using the machining skills learned during the class.
