In this learning activity you'll examine how computers operate in a peer-to-peer network operating system.

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.

In this learning activity you'll observe how computers operate in a client-server network operating system and consider the advantages and disadvantages of such a system.

Students review the functions of the keys on the Starrett HB400 Optical Comparator controller.

Using the principle of Pascal's Law, the learner will interpret the gauge readings in a hydraulic system to determine when the system is operating properly under various load conditions and when there is a defect.

Students complete 10 practice problems. These deal with the determination of series current, zener current, and load current, and if the zener diode is operating in the breakdown region.

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

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