Learners examine an animated motion-controlled robotic arm and observe the operation of a PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control that makes movements quickly without overshooting or having a steady-state error. This activity has audio content.
In this interactive object, learners examine sectional views used in engineering drawings. The sections shown are full, half, offset, aligned, revolved, and broken-out. Learners match drawings of sectional views with the names of the views.
In this interactive object, learners practice their 3D visualization skills by identifying the correct isometric view of an object. Front, side, and top orthographic views are shown.
Interpreting Engineering Drawings: Common Abbreviations
In this interactive object, learners read the common abbreviations used in engineering drawings and then test their knowledge in three short exercises.
2D and 3D views used to help convey information from a drafter or designer to the welder are provided. This activity will focus on a holder. A short quiz to test your ability to correctly read this information follows.
The learner will understand how to view an object for interpretation in the standard orthographic format and then accurately sketch three orthographic views using 3rd angle projection.
