Student goals and capabilities

*EMPLOYERS MUST BE ONTARIO-BASED FOR ELIGIBILITY*

This program is supported by the Career Ready Fund which is intended to support the automotive sector. Eligible employers will be provided with $3,000 per student/recent alumni hired. In this course, students will engage in an applied project of your choosing to design and fabricate prototypes by using digital manufacturing technology (lasers, 3D printer, multi-axis CNC machine tools) over the course of 15 weeks.

The program will integrate precision machining methods with advanced computer-controlled machine technology (CNC) in state-of-the-art Precision Machining, CAD/CAM, CNC, Research, and Welding Labs and the students will come prepared to tackle the challenge provided.

Project Examples

Requirements

In teams of 1 to 5, students will be required to design and fabricate prototypes by using digital manufacturing technology. They will first work on a design followed by creating drawings. Once those are created and approved, the group will start to manufacture the parts. Followed by the final assembly and testing which will provide your organization with a final product.

Examples that students can design and manufacture include but are not limited to:

  • Tools
  • Jigs
  • Fixtures
  • Precision Fabrication Assemblies
  • Prototypes

Past project examples have included:
