Precision Machining & Manufacturing

Perry Technical Institute ETPL

Perry Technical Institute's Precision Machining & Manufacturing program teaches students the machine trade through the integration of machining theory and practical application in the machine shop. The objective of the Precision Machining & Manufacturing (PRMA) program is to provide students with a broad base of knowledge and skills for employment in the machining and manufacturing industry. Students are taught through the integration of machining theory and practical application in the machine shop. Students use the skills they learn to plan and carry out the operations needed to make machined products that meet precise specifications. The working properties of metals, applied mathematics, blueprint reading, computer numerical control (CNC) programming, and computer- aided manufacturing (CAM) using Mastercam are some of the areas of study. Students train using CNC and additive manufacturing (3-D printing) technology. This training program concludes with an externship off campus or with the completion of a capstone project on campus.

 

Graduates find career opportunities in industries such as manufacturing, prototyping, job shops, power generation, aerospace, food processing, medical equipment, and other specialty machining industries.

 

The PRMA program is 12 months in length (four quarters). The student will earn 75 credit hours which are 1,344 clock hours.

 

The student to instructor ratio for the PRMA program is no greater than 16:1.

Data is unavailable for one of several reasons: In some cases, the institution has not provided the Workforce Board with data to independently evaluate program performance. We encourage all schools to provide this data on an annual basis. In other cases, the program joined Career Bridge recently and student data has not been reported yet. In other cases, the program is too small or too new to provide reliable results.
