Develops skill in gas metal arc welding. Learners use short circuit transfer and pulsed spray transfer to make fillet and groove welds in the horizontal and vertical positions on sheet metal.
Learn to setup GTAW equipment, and process fundamentals and variables. You’ll make fillets and grooves in the horizontal position on Carbon Steel. This course is the foundation for the other GTAW courses.
Use the GTAW process to create fillet welds in the 2F and 5F positions on pipe to plate. You will also explore groove welds in the 5G and 6G positions on pipe.
Introduces fundamental concepts of CNC programming as related to metal fabrication. Learners apply concepts by creating and running simple programs with a welding robot, thermal shape-cutting system, and a press brake.
Compares equipment and techniques used in the major arc welding and thermal cutting processes. Learners perform introductory level welds in the SMAW, GMAW, FCAW and GTAW processes. Learners also perform material preparation skills including shearing, grinding and thermal cutting.
Applies metal fabrication concepts in individual and small group projects. Learners design, plan, layout and fabricate functional projects. Layout tools and methods, along with fixtures, are employed to create precise, repeatable parts to industry standards.
Expands on skills developed in Layout & Welding Fabrication 1. Learners design, plan, layout, and fabricate functional capstone projects. Integration of computer aided drafting, laser cutting, metal forming and robotic welding is emphasized. Learners conduct peer evaluation of cost, design and mechanical function.
Prepares learners to perform basic nursing skills under the supervision of a nurse for job entry as a nursing assistant or a home health aide (HHA) in health care agencies. Face-to-face and hybrid classroom, campus lab and clinical instruction are offered at various nursing homes and hospitals throughout the district. Students need to submit an application and complete background check.
Applies the fundamental skills developed in Robotic Welding Applications 1 to functional parts needed for manufacturing. Learners will create and implement fixtures to optimize efficiency and repeatability. They will also utilize a programmable robotic welding positioner to replicate "real-world" production, as well as explore other systems used in our local industry. Learners will also investigate the science associated with welding as they explore techniques, variables, properties of filler metals and shielding mediums related to weld integrity.
Introduces process fundamentals, electrode selection and machine setup are discussed. Learners use Low hydrogen, "stick" electrodes to complete fillet and groove welds in all positions. Weld quality is assessed per AWS D1.1 - Structural Steel Code.
