This course introduces applied machine shop mathematics, blueprints, and written documents commonly found in machine shop environments. Students will be able to calculate additional information needed to manufacture the product as it is described on a machined product blueprint. Extensive use of trigonometry, geometry, conversion between decimal and fractions, and numbers using SAE (inch) and metric (SI) will be utilized. Students will apply biblical and ethical principles related to theories of applied measurements where applicable. Prerequisite: AMP-110

This course will increase the student's abilities in math skills and concepts that are required to be successful in shop activities. Topics include advanced applications of applied shop mathematics that are used to effectively machine the part, proper use of applied geometric and trigonometric functions, and their applications as they relate to blueprint reading and manufacturing of a part. Solving complex manufacturing problems that is related to the use of sine bars, and gage blocks for set up and inspecting angles to be machined. Students will apply biblical and ethical principles related to numerical applications and problems. Prerequisite: AMP-110, AMP-200

This course is an advanced study of the relationship of materials, fixtures, and special tooling/machining operations as they relate to applications of machine shop production of precise parts, dies, and mold components. Theories on the use of coolants and specialty inserts will be presented. Students will gain foundational knowledge of castings, weldments, tool coatings, and manufacturing methods that are becoming part of emerging technology. This course includes a study of the principles of blanking and/or piercing dies; die life; punches; die block construction; strippers and stock guides; stock material utilization; strip layouts; and die sets. Foundations of mold construction will be covered. Students will apply biblical and ethical principles to product production systems where applicable.
