Machine Tools Training
Amatrol's Machine Tools 1 Learning System (96-MP1) is a comprehensive resource that explores the uses and functionality of two essential manufacturing tools: the band saw and the drill press. Through this system, learners engage in safe practices for cutting raw materials precisely and creating various hole types, such as countersink, counterbore, reamed, and tapped, crucial for manufacturing applications. Understanding the applications and safe operation of the drill press and band saw is vital for anyone entering the workforce in manufacturing.
This learning system encompasses multimedia curriculum materials, an instructor's guide, installation guide, and a student reference guide. Schools have the option to use their own equipment or acquire Amatrol's Manual Machine Tool Package, which includes essential tools like a band saw, drill press, bench vise, and belt sander. These components, combined with the multimedia curriculum, cover essential topics like stock selection, band saw components, drill press tooling, and tapping and chamfering techniques. Developed as part of Amatrol's Project Based Learning initiative, this system not only imparts technical knowledge but also fosters problem-solving, teamwork, and STEM skills. It serves as a strong foundation for careers in engineering, manufacturing, and related fields or can function as a standalone educational tool.
