  • 3.00 Credits

    This course will study laws and regulations affecting mining, including the Mining Act, CFR 30 with a focus on parts 56, 57, 75 & 77, Program Policy Manual, Mine Plans, and Environmental Law related to mining. It will also cover the role of MSHA, State agencies, and other regulatory agencies as related to mining operations. The focus of this class will be on the identification and knowledge of how the regulations and laws are structured. 3 lecture hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course studies health issues facing mining, such as respirable dust, toxic products, radiation and hazard communication. Also included are accident prevention methods, hazard recognition, respiratory devices, self contained self rescuers, fire fighting methods, emergency escape procedures and communication systems. 3 lecture hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course covers mine related atmosphere and the methods used to control the environment miners work in. This would include mine ventilation principles, mine fans, mine gases, instruments used to monitor and measure mine air, exhaust control, respirable dust control, rock dusting, and control of explosive gas and dust. Formulas specific to the mining industry which will increase airflow, pressure and volumetric studies will be covered. 3 lecture hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course studies belt systems, crushing systems, prep plant processes, cleaning and handling products, transportation, support processes, and parts. Also studied are water systems, including pumping water, transportation systems and the economics of processing. 3 lecture hours.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: A grade of C or better in MTTD 100. This course is designed to present basic concepts in mold construction. Using conventional machine tool equipment, each student will be required to build a simple injection mold and mold base, set it up in an injection molding machine, and produce plastic piece parts that meet blueprint specifications. 4 lecture hours, 16 laboratory hours (eight-week course).
  • 6.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: A grade of C or better in MTTD 155 and MTIM 165. This course is a continuation of MTIM 165 with an emphasis on building a more complex injection mold. Students are required to construct a complex mold that requires the construction and precise locating of many complicated mold inserts and core pins. Experience is provided in CNC mill and wire EDM machining, programming in 2-D and 3-D, and machining of complicated angles, radii and contours. Additional experience is gained in polishing, computation of shrinkage, and related math needed for machining or construction. 3 lecture hours, 17 laboratory hours.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Prerequisites: Successful completion of READ 011, or recentered SAT Verbal score of (R)420 or greater, or appropriate placement test scores, and a grade of C or better in MTIM 210. This course is a continuation of MTIM 210 with moldmaking advanced to a higher level. Students are required to construct a complex mold that requires side action. Complex mold sections are constructed such as angle pins, cam blocks, slides, wear plates, and a cooling system. Experience is provided in CNC Machining, programming, machining of complicated angles, radii and contours. Additional experience is gained in computation of cam blocks, angle pins and shrinkage. 3 lecture hours, 17 laboratory hours.
  • 9.00 Credits

    Corequisite: MTTD/MTTL 135. Students become familiar with the power saw, drill press, lathe, milling machine, and surface grinders by performing conventional operations on each machine. Layout, bench and inspection techniques will be incorporated as required. 3 lecture hours, 19 laboratory hours.
  • 2.00 Credits

    This course has two major areas of content. First, a study of basic metallurgical elements and structure will be undertaken. Topics to be discussed deal with properties, classification, heat-treatment, application and troubleshooting as it will concern the toolmaker. The second part of this course is designed to develop students’ ability to interpret needed information contained on industrial blueprints. An overview of reading the blueprint as well as its views, dimensions, tolerances and finishing marks will be stressed. Assembly and detailed drawings will be examined on an advanced level. Geometric dimensions, tolerances, and symbols will also be covered. 2 lecture hours.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: A grade of C or better in MTTD 100 or 140. Corequisite: MTTL 115. This course will provide students with extensive programming and operation of CNC machine tools. Students will use various techniques to input information, edit set-up, and operate CNC machine tools. The end result will be a piece part machined to blueprint specifications. Emphasis will be placed on programming efficiency, cutter selection, speeds, feeds, accuracy, and troubleshooting. 2 lecture hours.
