Datum precedence is a fundamental principle in the design and manufacture of mechanical parts and assemblies.
It refers to the order of importance assigned to different datums, which are specific points, lines, or planes on a part, which are used as references for measurement and geometric tolerances.
In this module, we’ll explore what an affinity diagram is, discuss how it can be used to solve problems, and end with some real-world applications to show you how these can help you in any manufacturing role to bring order to chaos.
In manufacturing, controlling the production process is critical. Part of this control is knowing when to make adjustments and when to let the line run. Step onto the production line in our manufacturing plant and learn what process variation is and how it impacts your bottom line.
By playing a game of tic-tac-toe, a student can review what happens to currents and voltages throughout a series RLC circuit when the applied frequency is increased from 0 Hz towards resonance.
Do you hate doing homework? Do you think it’s a waste of your time? Are you looking for a better way?
We’ve got you. In this video, you’ll explore how using the homework strategy can improve your studying techniques, make your studying strategies more effective, and reduce the amount of time wasted by trying to memorize your textbooks. We can help!
Robotic welding is revolutionizing welder safety, efficiency, and technique. Knowing how to program a robotic welder is key in this ever-changing industry. In this module you’ll explore what Through-Arc Seam Tracking (TAST) is, discover how it works, and see it applied on the job.
Trying to write your paper but you’ve gotten stuck? Explore Mind Mapping! This creative technique helps you explore what you already know, lets you see how your ideas are tied together, and gets you writing quickly.
Brainstorming helps find new ideas to problems. Learn how you can use brainstorming to write a paper, give a speech, or work on a group project. In this video, you’ll explore what brainstorming is and how to use it.
Every speech starts with an outline. Knowing how to write one can make the difference between speech success and speech failure. In this module, we’ll explore what’s involved in creating an outline, demonstrate how to put one together, and give you examples you can use to create your own outline.
Learners read an explanation of the RL time constant and examine the formula for calculating the instantaneous current value. The current is graphed as it climbs to maximum or drops to zero. Note* In the formulas in this module, the Greek letter epsilon should be the mathematical constant 'e'.
In this learning activity you'll identify the various parts of a bar graph, read and interpret its data, and calculate the data to solve various application problems.
