Intro to Automated Manufacturing
1 – CRHS – 9/10/11/12
E
9th graders recommended to have a C or better in Math
This is an abbreviated, one semester Automated Manufacturing I. Participants will get hands-on use in creating physical, virtual and electronic products that can be used in the world around them. Items that will be explored are 1. Safety and Tool Usage, 2. Measuring and Product Designs (CAD), 3. Manufacturing Processes, 4. Electronics and Instrumentation Principles, 5. Machining and Additive Manufacturing. Continuing in this course of study can lead to an automated manufacturing related industry certification. Students can continue to Automated Manufacturing II after taking this class.
Automated Manufacturing I
2 – CRHS – 9/10/11/12
C
9th graders recommended to have a C or better in Math
This is a year-long introductory course, in the Automation of Manufacturing and Machining. Participants will get hands-on use in creating physical, virtual and electronic products that can be used in the world around them. Item that will be explored are 1. Safety and Tool Usage, 2. Measuring and Product Designs (CAD), 3. Power System Principals, 4. Manufacturing Processes, 5. Electronics and Instrumentation Principles, 6. Machining and Additive Manufacturing, 7. Robotics and Material Handling. Continuing in this course of study can lead to automated manufacturing related industry certifications.
Automated Manufacturing II
2 – CRHS – 10/11/12
C – DC (CSI: MANT 105)
Auto MFG I with a C or higher & Instructor Permission
This is year two of three in Automated Manufacturing. Participants will get hands-on use in creating physical, virtual and electronics projects that can be used in the world around them. We will continue to explore the items from AutoMfg I and expand focus on 1. Product Designs (CAD), 2. Power System Principals, 3. Manufacturing Processes, 4. Electronics and Instrumentation Principles, 5. Machining and Additive Manufacturing. Continuing in this course of study can lead to an automated manufacturing related industry certification. Certifications include Solidworks CSWA and NIMS Machining Level 1.
Automated Manufacturing III
2 – CRHS – 11/12
C – DC (CSI: MANT 105)
Auto MFG l and ll with a C or higher & Instructor Approval. Students should be concurrently enrolled in Auto MFG III Lab
This is the third course in a three course program. A focus on CNC Machining and Programmable Logic Controllers will be taught the first semester. Second semester, a senior project that combines all automated manufacturing processes learned to-date will be undertaken. Certifications include Solidworks CSWA and NIMS Machining Level 1.
Automated Manufacturing III Lab
2 – CRHS – 11/12
E – DC (CSI: MANT 105)
Concurrent enrollment in Auto MFG III
This lab is for students to create their own project based upon the skills learned in the previoius classes.
Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM)
2 – CRHS – 10/11/12
E – TCC (CSI)
Passed PLTW IED with a C or higher
This class is a full year class similar to Automated Manufacturing I. More emphasis will be placed on the Robotics, drafting and technical aspects of the course that will prepare students for engineering and programming related curriculum. This class is designed to better prepare students for future careers in Engineering, Manufacturing, Robotics, and Machining related fields.
Occupational and Career Experience
1 – CRHS/TFHS – 11/12
E
C or higher in Precision Machining I/II & Instructor Approval
A school district, community, or industry (preferred) based work experience/internship activity organized and planned to develop advanced skills necessary to gain and maintain employment. This course may encompass a broad range of paid/unpaid work experiences related to the career objective of the student. The experience must be supervised and monitored by the teacher.
