2.50 Credits
Class hours: 2.0 Lecture/2.0 Laboratory This is a specialty course for the advanced plastics student or individuals employed in the plastics industry that wish to further their skills and knowledge of plastics. Laboratory experience will continue to stress major areas of specialization selected by the student, including: materials, process applications, and equipment.
-
1.50 Credits
Class hours: 1.5 Lecture/0.5 Laboratory This survey course introduces students to the fundamentals of the plastic extrusion process. Selection of equipment and materials are covered as well as current industry terminology. Material handling, safe machine operation and manufacturing processes are emphasized.
-
3.00 Credits
Class hours: One (1) hour control class each week plus 15 hours of employment per week for Plastics work experience 73 or 20 hours of employment per week for Plastics work experience 74. The employment must be in a job related to the student's educational goal. Corequisite: (1) Enrollment in the Plastics vocational program with 7 or more units including occupational work experience. Work experience/career internship provides the opportunity for Plastics Manufacturing Technology students to apply skills and knowledge learned in the classroom to related experiences on the job/training site. The aim of the course is to assist students in expanding specific job skills. In the process of doing so, it creates greater communication with increased understanding between the student/workers, the college, and the employer/trainers. Students also pursue a program of self-evaluation to determine individual job weaknesses and strengths. Semester projects that relate to the major and job skills must be completed on the job/training site. These courses may be taken a maximum of 4 times.

2.50 Credits
Class hours: 2.0 Lecture/2.0 Laboratory Recommendation: PMT 70 or equivalent with a grade of Pass or "C" or higher, or appropriate work experience.This course will provide students with theory and "hands-on" exposure to fabrication methods with "high-tech" materials. Areas of concentration will include composite structures, material choices, design of composite structures, surface bonding, fastener installation, inspection processes and approved repair methods. Fabrication, safety procedures, and material handling are also covered
-
3.00 Credits
Class hours: 3.0 Lecture/1.0 Laboratory This course is designed to further extend both the students' skills in plastic injection moldmaking and knowledge of the latest technologies used for mold designing and mold fabrication, including the use of computer programs. Definitions of complex types of plastic injection molds, mathematical solutions of plastic part requirements, computer-generated Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) electrodes and computer-generated template designs, and surface polishing will be covered.
