Program Description

Learners explore casting principles, types, forgeability of materials, and casting defects. Next, the course covers forging, shaping metals through compression for strong, durable components. Participants study closed and open die forging, material forgeability, and typical operations, developing skills through practical application. Finally, the course delves into welding, a crucial metal-joining process. Learners understand weld joint types, welding symbols, procedures, welder qualifications, and consumable selection. Through case studies, they learn to identify and mitigate welding defects, adhering to industry standards. Throughout the course, instructional tasks, practical exercises, and real-world applications help to reinforce learning. Graduates will excel at developing, building, and maintaining heavy manufacturing components, preparing to contribute to industrial efficiency and innovation.
