Manufacturing Engineering 2 (Apprenticeship)

Manufacturing Engineering 2 develops the ability of learners to practically apply manufacturing engineering methodologies through the correct identification, selection and use of manufacturing processes. In particular, it develops the CNC programming skills of learners. It gives learners a broad experience of both the theoretical and practical elements of Manufacturing for industry.

1. Explain the basic physical, mechanical properties of engineering materials and main testing techniques used in industry.

2. Describe sustainable manufacturing processes and technologies appropriate to a range of applications

3. Generate/Write a CNC Programme for 2 Axis Turning and 3 Axis Milling using a simulator/CAM software

4. Analyse and interpret CNC program for basic CNC turning and milling operations

5. Demonstrate practical application of manufacturing engineering methodologies through the correct identification, selection and use of manufacturing processes using laboratory equipment or workshop machinery.
