Name of NGM Educator: John Hoyle, Machine Drafting Teacher, Howell Cheney Technical High School |
Name of Host Company: MTU Aero Engines |
Grade Level: 9th and 10th grade high school drafting |
Student Work Types:
|
Task Abstract: After being given a particular product, students will develop a series of Operations sheets necessary to create the part in a given manufaturing environment. Students will determine an efficient procedure in the fabrication of an item, the necessary fixturing and mounting systems needed, and the approximate times of each operation. they will create CAD-based operations sheets for all stages of part production. |
Task Objectives:
|
Esssential Understandings/Questions:
Skill in all of these areas will be demonstrated by actual creation of functional operations sheets, testing on relevant terminology, and correct determination of perational times, and correct machine selection. |
Task Description:
|
Resources Required: Cadkey, Pro-D software, measuring tools (micrometers, vernier calipers, machinist scales, Machinist Data Handbook) |
Prior Learning Required: Students will have skill in layout, design, modeling and all annotation functions using Cadkey and basic assembly techniques using Pro-D. Students will have efamiliiarity with using the Machinist Data Handbook for reference information. Students will have knowledge of drafting practices including alphabet of lines, dimensioning, orthographic projections, section views, auxiliary views.

Educator Comments: By creating Operations Sheets, students are exposed to a large gamut of shop procedures and practices. The Operations Sheet is a culmination of drafting skills, knowledge of proceses, tool design, and mounting methods. The product and process will necessarily be a basic and simple part with a basic and simple operation. Tours and industry intererations will play a great role in improving the students understanding of the critical nature of Operations Sheets in industrial manufacturing settings. |
