The learner reads about safety considerations for operating a hydraulic metal shear. Text, graphics and a brief assessment are included.

The learner will...be able to safely use grinding equipment in the welding and metal fabrication shop.

In this interactive object, students read how to calculate the blank size for cylinders in a three-roll pinch roller. A calculator is required for the brief quiz that completes the activity.

Learners examine how metal detectors function. This object includes animation and sound.

Users calculate the tonnage required to punch holes in a specific base metal. The formula to be used is provided along with the tensile strength for various metals. A calculator is required.

In this simulation, learners follow 10 steps to program a job to saw metal. This activity includes a video clip.

In this interactive object, learners set up a shear, enter the back gauge dimension, and prepare to shear metal in a simulation of the Adira Hydraulic Shear.

Students view the formula for determining twist drill speeds in metal.

Learners view wire feed power sources ranging from 110-volt, single phase units to 460-volt, three-phase units. A description and photos of each are provided.

Learners answer questions about ferrous metals and alloys using a game show format. Immediate feedback is provided.

Learners answer questions about nonferrous metals and alloys using a game show format. Immediate feedback is provided.

Picture of Adira hydraulic shear's operator's panel with part identification and instructions on how to start and stop the shear as well as setting stroke (cutting length).

In this simulation, learners follow steps to clear out a job that had been previously created.

In this learning activity you'll practice operating the Hurco Controller in the CNC mode.

In this learning activity you'll review an explanation of how to operate the Hurco Controller in the manual mode.

Introduces two methods of determining bend allowance; one is simple and is an approximate, the other is more precise. Interactive part has learner calculate bend allowance and blank size.

In this learning object you'll become familiar with the Hurco Controller in full CNC mode.

Identifies the parts of the hydraulic press brake featuring the Adira up-acting press brake. Interactive section asks to identify parts after first learning them.

Step-by-step of setting the back gauge with an Adira Hydraulic Shear.

The student is shown and then identifies the parts of a hydraulic shear.
