Industrial
Training
Introduction to Programmable
Logic Controllers (PLC)
We cover the PLC components, how to create a basic program to use
information collected from several sensers to make decisions and issue
commands to several different actuators. Simple programming and using
an HMI are included. Participants assemble a system and learn how PLCs
function rather than spending time playing with menus and virtual
environments.
Design for Defect-Free
Manufacturing
Eliminate 80% of the defects and waste in the manufacturing process by
including product design features that make manufacturing and assembly
mistakes nearly impossible. Indexing, color, shape, tagging, all the
things to consider adding to the product design to eliminate mistakes
in the factory. This process is critical for customer happiness and
eliminating defects escaping your factory.
Mistake-Proofing Operations and
Production
Specifically designed as a
tactic to eliminate production defects on
legacy products that have not been designed for defect-free
manufacturing, and as a method of stopping defect escapes between
product design changes. This course explores fixturing and
mistake-proffing in the work cell. These techniques can be deployed
across the factory, even in non-manufacturing environments.
Math Lab for Manufacturing
Not another boring math class.
The math for manufacturing lab brings
together measuring, understanding tolerances, collecting manufacturing
data, and how to use math you already know as it applies to the
manufacturing process.
Troubleshooting, Critical
Thinking, and Problem Solving Lab
This is a hands-on lab, not a
lecture. Individuals work in a small team
to attack problems, learn the process of dissecting information,
organizing ideas, and formulating plans to test and correct
malfunctions with a programmable logic control circuit.
Valuestream mapping and process
improvement modeling
A hands-on lab. Individuals work in small teams to streamline a
manufacturing process and find their own novel approaches to decrease
processing waste.
LEAN 5s
Even Toyota recongnizes that LEAN will never transform your culture
into a low-waste, highly productive environment without first mastering
the processes of sorting, setting in order, cleanliness, standardized
process, and sustaining controls. This is a short intriductory course
to show each student how to implement 5s in their own work cell.
Introduction to Electronics
A class explaining electical theory with a virtual LAB. We cover all
the basics of elementary electronics including voltage, resistance,
capacitance, inductance, power consumption, and the primary components
expected in discreet electronic circuits.
Small Business Training
Courses
Starting a Business
We discover the value and use for a business plan, how to write your
own custom business plan and how to keep your business on track by
executing your business plan.
Happy Customers Buy Often
Determine your exact steps to identify your ideal customers, develop
products and services they find higly desirable, and sell what your
ideal customers want to buy.
Introduction to 3D CAD Design & 3D Printing
Discover how to install and use 3D CAD software, design simple parts, and send them to 3D
printers. This LAB includes 3D sketching, extrusion, dimensioning, and editing parts. You
learn how to think about design problems related to part dimensioning and fit.
