Rating
0.0 stars

This lesson plan is for a cross-curricular project that helps students investigate their electricity use and devise a plan for how they could maintain their normal activities for two days without using power (such as during a power outage). The idea came from the need many companies have for a back-up plan when they lose power during a storm but still need to maintain their operations.

Reverse Engineering a Manufactured Component
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

The scenario is that the student is working in the engineering department of a manufacturing plant. The plant has access to a wide variety of machining tools, so it is customary for them to make or repair their own parts as things wear out. Many of the parts are unique to the equipment at the facility, so it is impossible to simply order one from some outside supplier. Even if a part was available, it is cost prohibitive to buy new.

Students will be provided with a small piece of machinery that they must reverse engineer the dimensions. For middle school level students, the geometry will be kept rather simple and the measurements straightforward. For high school students, the geometry can become more complex, requiring some drafting skill, caliper use, and higher level CAD design.

Once the students take all the necessary measurements, then using CAD (Tinkercad for the lower grades), they will build up a virtual mock-up of the part. From there, the option would be to teach additive or reductive design. The part could be recreated using either a CNC or 3D printer.

Woodworking can be a safe and enjoyable trade if you follow some very basic woodworking safety rules. All of the rules are common-sense ideas, but failure to follow these rules will greatly increase the chance of injury. The wood shop is not the place to be in a hurry or have an "it won't happen to me" attitude. Follow the 10 rules and your woodworking experiences will be safer and enjoyable.

0.0 stars

This unit will guide students from basic sheet metal layout and forming through applications and utilization of CNC plasma cutting to develop a better understanding of how this technology is used in industry.  Prior to this unit, students would have an understanding of measurement and the use of the CNC plasma software, interface, and operation through a previous sign making activity.  Students would already have been taught welding (SMAW & GMAW) safety and this unit runs concurrently with welding activities to allow larger classes more access to the welding booths.
