Composite Materials and Manufacturing DVD This program explains the basics of composite materials and manufacturing by featuring segments on: composite matrix and reinforcement materials, composite manufacturing processes, and composite fabrication and joining methods. The first segment features the primary types of matrix and reinforcement materials, as well as the various forms in which they are available.
Compression Molding DVD The use of compression molding in high volume, high quality composite parts production is featured prominently in this Compression Molding program. The various sheet, thick and bulk molding compounds are detailed as well as mold types used.
Composite Tooling Design DVD Quality tooling is a fundamental requirement for the manufacture of composite parts. This is due to the fact that every step in the composite part manufacturing process must be tightly controlled to ensure superior material properties and predictable performance in the final product.This program explores the composite materials used for tooling and tooling design.
Composites Post Fabrication and Joining DVD Most composite parts and components require some type of post fabrication and or joining for finishing. This program examines the various methods used to cut, saw, rout, and drill composites effectively. The use of adhesives and mechanical fasteners to join separate composite components is also explored in detail.
Composite Materials DVD This Composite Materials program features a detailed explanation of the important mechanical properties of thermoset fiber-reinforced composites.
Computer-Aided Design DVD Computer-aided design or CAD involves the use of computers and software to digitally create engineering drawings and models to aid in tooling and product design. This program, part of the Fundamentals of Tool Design Video Series, explores the tools and techniques used within four fundamental computer-aided design categories.
Cutting Tool Design DVD Cutting tools have many shapes, each of which is described by its angles or geometry. This program, part of the Fundamentals of Tool Design Video Series, explores single-point and multi-point cutting tool geometries as well as the machining variables that affect the cutting tool design.
