焊接 is the most common way of permanently joining metal. 因为它的强度, welding is used to build and repair a myriad of products, from pipelines and power plants to ships and spacecraft. Job opportunities are on the rise as the demand for highly trained welders increases with industries throughout the world. Welders plan the sequence of operations and select the equipment to be used according to the kinds of metals involved and the type of weld to be made. The 焊接 program is designed to provide skill development in currently used welding processes including brazing, 焊接, 保护金属电弧焊, 气体钨极电弧焊, 电阻点焊, gas metal arc welding and flux core arc welding. 另外, skill development also includes oxy-fuel cutting, 空气碳弧切割, 等离子切割. This program prepares students to take the certification exams reflected in industry. Students seeking this degree will need to choose between construction/pipe welding trades or an industrial maintenance equipment specialty. Welders enjoy working with their hands and enjoy the sense of accomplishment from building objects.
除了教科书, welding students are required to supply the following items: 安全眼镜 (ANSIZ87), 焊接手套, welding jacket and welding hood. These items generally cost around $65 and can be purchased at either Airweld, 橄榄街2095号, 迪凯特, IL 62526, 217-428-4653.
Students must provide their own 安全眼镜, gloves, jacket, and cap. Safety glasses must be manufactured in accordance with the ANSI Z87 standard. Students who use prescription eyewear should consult the instructor. Safety glasses must be worn at all times in the laboratory and must be worn underneath welding helmets and face shields. 焊接头盔, 听力保护装置, 呼吸防护, and face shields are provided in the lab. Those students who provide their own welding helmets must have at least a number #10 or #11 lens installed. 所有削减, 磨, and welding operations require the use of the welding jacket, 安全眼镜, appropriate face protection (either welding helmet or face shield), 和手套.
Please be advised that the 焊接技术 program utilizes the Canvas Learning Management System. Having this online component allows the 焊接技术 program to provide self-paced studies on or off campus for students enrolled in any 焊接技术 course.
