Manufacturing Systems
Method is commonly used when a manufacturer needs to produce medium-sized quantities of products, which are similar but not identical
What is Batch Manufacturing?
Shoes that are allowed in the shop
What are boots?
What are closed toe shoes?
The joining of two or more metal pieces by heating the surfaces to the point of melting using a blowtorch, electric are, or other means.
What is Welding?
Iron, Steel and their alloys.
What are ferrous metals?
Used to produce hollow plastic parts by inflating a heated plastic tube, known as a parison or preform, inside a mold cavity.
What is blow molding?
Production process that involves creating custom, small-batch products based on specific orders
What is Job Shop
Oily rags should be stored in
What are metal containers
Used to create objects with a fixed cross-sectional profile by pushing or drawing material through a die.
Stiffer and denser than steel & is the hardest human-made metal.
What is Tungsten Carbide?
Materials made from two or more different materials that combine to create a material with enhanced properties.
What are composites?
A production process designed to produce large quantities of a product continuously without interruption. This system is particularly effective for products where demand is consistent and high, allowing for efficiency and consistency over long periods.
What is Continuous Manufacturing?
Fires that occur with flammable liquids such as gasoline, oil, grease, paints and thinners.
What is a Class B fire?
Used to achieve high-precision surface finishes and dimensional accuracy by removing material from a workpiece using a rotating abrasive wheel.
What is a grinding wheel?
A form of steel which has a minimum chromium content of 10%
What is Stainless Steel?
Involves the use of connected devices, sensors, and systems to collect, analyze, and exchange real-time data across manufacturing processes.
Process designed for the mass production of identical or very similar products over an extended period. This method is characterized by the continuous or near-continuous production of goods.
What is Repetitive Manufacturing?
Identified by the ANSI Z87.1 logo
Process used to shape plastic materials into specific forms by heating them until they become pliable, then molding them into a desired shape using a mold, and finally cooling them to retain the shape.
What is Thermoforming?
The first two digits indicate certain alloying elements. The last two digits indicate the specific carbon content in hundredths of a percent.
What is the AISI/SAE designation system?
By leveraging vast amounts of data generated by machines, sensors, and processes, algorithms can identify patterns, predict outcomes, and optimize operations. This is most closely associated with real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance in advanced manufacturing.
What is Machine Learning?
Time is required to set up and change over equipment between batches, which can reduce overall production efficiency.
What is a challenge to Batch Manufacturing?
PPE
What is Personal Protective Equipment?
The process can produce a wide variety of shapes, including flat surfaces, slots, holes, contours, and complex 3D geometries.
What is Milling?
Never use water-based cutting fluids when machining.
What is Magnesium Machining?
Non-metallic, inorganic materials that are typically hard, brittle, and resistant to heat and wear.
What are ceramics?
