- 1tell me about making and using templates?they are easy to make and simple to use
- 2who can you use templates?use them to reproduce any number of identical shapes from one original pattern (template) the template is used to draw, scribe or cut round
- 3what do templates need to be, why?strong and hard wearing, so they can be used repetitively without getting damaged or worn
- 4after the product is made what can be done with the template?the components can be checked against the templates for accuracy
- 5what does a jig do?guide the tools that are working on a component
- 6tell me about the type os jigs you can get [not names asethetics]?they can come in my different shapes and sizes and can be specifically made for a particular job
- 7what are jigs designed for?to speed up production and simplify the making process
- 8what does a drilling jig help with?gets rid of the need for complex marking out
it can also help cut down errors and make sure every component is identical - 9give an example showing jigs and complex cutting jobs?jigs can help with complex cutting jobs too
e.g. a dovetail jig enables complex joints to be machined with a router very quickly and easily, and with minimal measuring and marking out - 10when are moulds most commonly used, such as?in plastic manufacturing, in processes such as vacuum forming, compression moulding and blow moulding
- 11what happens after a mould has been made?once an accurate mould has been made, detailed plastic shapes can be formed with it over and over again
- 12tell me about industrial moulds, and cost?they an be expensive to produce (especially id f made out of metal) so a manufacturer need to be certain of the design
it's only cost effective to make a mould if large numbers of a product are needed - 13what did you need to get in mass production? (5)NEW TECHNOLOGY
STAFF
TRANSPORT
STOCK AND PREMISES
ORGANISATION - 14why do you need new technology?to make things quickly and efficiently
you'll need to buy and maintain new machinery - 15why do you need staff?you need employees to make the product or to maintain the new machinery
any they need to be paid - 16why do you need transport?if you are selling your product far away, you need vehicles to transport it
you have to pay for a lot of fuel too - 17why do you need stock and premises?you'll need to spend money on bigger buildings to put the extra materials and machines in
- 18why do you need organisation?with a big operation you need to plan things carefully, or you will risk wasting time and materials
so you need managers (who also need to be paid) - 19which is cheaper mass production or small-scale?MASS PRODUCTION
- 20why is mass production cheaper than small-scale? (3)1.) you can make each product more quickly > this saves on wages
2.) bigger machines are usually more efficient > so cheaper to run
3.) you can get discounts from you suppliers if you buy materials in bulk - 21why is mass production a bigger risk then small-scale?as it'll cost a lot to set up, and this money will be wasted if you don't sell enough products
