SUMMARY:Introduction to Basic Metrology Using A Laser Interferometer (3-Day Paid Training Class)
DESCRIPTION:Join CCAT and Renishaw for this comprehensive 3-day in-person paid training.  This course involves open discussion on the use of the laser interferometer as a tool for evaluating the severity and cause of errors machines exhibit which work within three-dimensional rectangular coordinate systems. Emphasis is on development of basic metrology skills\, visualization\, and solutions for spatial geometric problems using laser interferometers on linear motion devices. This is an introductory course designed for individuals looking to develop and further the understanding of error events recorded with a laser interferometer. Although this course is introductory\, it meets the needs of many students with other interests as a refresher course for improving laser alignment skills\, a course for students interested in pursuing\, selling and supporting metrology measurement services or a course that simply satisfies a student’s curiosity in measurement using laser interferometers. This is an interactive lecture structured course whereby fresh topics are presented by the instructor\, theory and hardware are explained\, formulas are introduced\, scenarios are presented and basic metrology problems are worked out sequentially by the instructor and students.\n– Familiarize students with basics concepts of metrology\n– Familiarize students with errors found in rectangular coordinate systems\n– To provide students with opportunities to develop an understanding of measurement uncertainties using a laser interferometer\n– Familiarize the student with the basic measuring components of laser interferometer\n– Familiarize students with basic Laser software data capture and analysis functions\n– To provide students with basic skills to evaluate and quantify future metrology challenges\nDay 1\, Tue. June 14\, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm \nIntroduction and Safety\nClassifications of measurements\nDisplacement measurement units\nHistory of units\nMeasurement unit selection\nBasic metrology formulas\nThermal expansion\nMachine coordinate systems\n6/13/21 Degrees of freedom\nFeedback systems error\nError Correction\nAbsolute and incremental error\nDay 2\, Wed. June 15\, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm \nHardware and theory\nSystem accuracy\nLinear measurement optics\nOptical setup and laser alignment\nUsing capture and analysis software\nEnvironmental compensation\nFactors affecting accuracy\nDay 3\, Thu. June 16\, 8:00 am – 4:00 pm \nAngular measurement optics\nStraightness measurement optics\nSetting up and capturing linear\, angular and straightness measurements\nCreating compensation tables\nEvaluating measured results\nMaking changes in the machine control\nUsing capture and analysis software\nRotary axis measurement\nOff-Axis rotary measurements\nUsing rotary capture and analysis software\nTrainer:  Justin Lebel\, Renishaw\nRegistration is required and the 3-day training cost $2\,000 per person. This training will require a minimum of 5 attendees to run.\nRegister \n   \n \nLearn More:\nMoney for Manufacturing is available for eligible CT manufacturers through two different grant programs funded by the CT Department of Economic and Community Development and administered by CCAT. The IoT Integration Voucher Program can provide up to $20\,000 to assist you with the implementation of Industry 4.0 solutions.\nInterested in additional workshops and trainings? See our upcoming opportunities for manufacturers and educators.\nCCAT’s Advanced Technology Center (ATC) is located at the Raytheon Technologies Research Center which is adjacent to The Pratt & Whitney Campus at 409 Silver Lane\, East Hartford\, CT.

SUMMARY:Tour CCAT's Advanced Technology Center to Inspire ALL Students
DESCRIPTION:Show & Tell: Tour Our Advanced Technology Center\nPart of CCATs mission is to support educators in encouraging students to consider careers in STEM and advanced manufacturing. We do this by hosting tours of our Advanced Technology Center in East Hartford. If you are a teacher\, counselor\, or administrator\, learn more about the exciting advances in manufacturing technologies and how they shape jobs of the future. See for yourself what cutting-edge machinery and tools manufacturers are adding to their shop floors. Meet CCAT engineers and get an up-close look at 3D printers\, scanners\, cobots\, and lasers. Network and gain insights on the future of manufacturing and how this might align with your students’ talent\, skill\, and interest.\nLearn strategies and tools to bring back to educate and inspire your students!\nCCAT’s Advanced Technology Center (ATC) is located at the Raytheon Technologies Research Center which is adjacent to The Pratt & Whitney Campus at 409 Silver Lane\, East Hartford\, CT.\nCCAT is an export control facility and all visitors at CCAT’s Advanced Technology Center will be required to sign in and present proof of citizenship.
