Advanced Tool Making Theory

Students are provided advanced training in the design and manufacture of precision metal cutting and forming tools and moulds. Topics covered include plastic shrinkage, venting as well as bend allowance during forming, stock material utilization and strip layout. Students are introduced to basic data analytics such as machine efficiencies, costing and quoting based on data, and workflow through the shop floor.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
