Full course description
This course contains the following modules:
Layout
Shows proficiency in understanding ordermaster and box layout.
Principles of Advanced Manufacturing
Principles of advanced manufacturing introduces advanced manufacturing through study of the technologies, processes, performance objectives, and personnel employed in modern manufacturing. Includes examination of computer technologies, such as CNC, PLC, automation, and software. The learner learns how to calculate critical performance objectives, as well as common physical plant layouts and the typical organization of manufacturing personnel and their responsibilities.
Strike Box
Successfully perform strike box test
Maintenance Operations
This course group covers: adhering to safety, health, and environmental rules and regulations; operating and monitoring a machine; interpreting machine operation and maintenance documentation and technical drawings; performing machine maintenance procedures, preventative maintenance, and predictive maintenance; selecting and safely using of proper hand tool for a task; moving, handling, and storing materials and equipment; and selecting systems troubleshooting methods.
Lean Overview and Workplace Organization
This course covers lean manufacturing, the Toyota Production System (TPS), workplace organization, and the 5S Program. Learners will study in-depth topics like similarities and differences of traditional and lean manufacturing methods, visual management tools used in the workplace, and the 5S Program (sort, straighten, shine, standardize, and sustain).
Lean Process Flow
Lean Manufacturing teaches learners ways to identify and eliminate waste in order to improve quality, reduce production time, and decrease cost: distilling down manufacturing processes to what is value added. Lean Process Flow covers key concepts including elements of lean production, comparing push-and-pull production systems, the Kanban System and its benefits, the Replenishment Interval and its importance, production scheduling, production balancing, and flow production and its benefits.
