Unit 22 P6
Look at this unit Pass 6 in relation to the work we are doing with the Greenpower car . Consider the methods of construction and the jointing methods we will be using . Comment on this and how if we were to make if from aluminium the construction would differ

P1 task
Task 1 P1 Identify the health and safety legislation,
regulations and safe working practices
applicable
in a fabrication workshop, with learners being
asked to produce a written report. Evidence presented for P1 must be specific
to fabrication processes. There is a huge amount of generic material which
learners will have access to. Care should be taken to ensure that what you
present is referenced properly and not directly copied from the internet or any
other source.

P8
P8 identify the appropriate heat treatment processes, secondary, finishing and assembly techniques needed to manufacture four given components.
Given components are
Upright for the front suspension on the Green power racer. Anodise it .
A garden gate, hot galvanised
Waterpump shaft
Use this for the Water pump Grind the main shaft as the finishing technique
Lathe and surface hardening should come into play!

None traditional machining techniques
Know how a range of non-traditional techniques are used
Electro discharge: machines eg spark erosion, wire erosion; features of the
workpiece eg holes, faces (such as flat, square, parallel, angular), forms
(such as concave, convex, profile, square/rectangular), other features (such as
threads, engraving, cavities, radii/arcs, slots)
Broaching: machines eg horizontal, vertical; features of the workpiece eg
keyways, holes (such as flat sided, square, hexagonal, octagonal), splines,
serrations, other special forms
Honing and lapping: machines eg honing (such as horizontal, vertical), lapping
(such as rotary disc, reciprocating); features of the workpiece eg holes (such
as through, blind, tapered), faces (such as flat, parallel, angular)

Spec for homework to help you
1 Understand how a range of
secondary machining techniques are used
Turning: machine eg centre lathe, turret; features of the workpiece eg
flat faces, diameters (such as parallel, stepped, tapered), holes (such as
drilled, bored, reamed), profile forms, threads (such as internal, external),
eccentric features, parting off, chamfers, knurls or special finishes, grooves,
undercuts
Milling: machine eg horizontal, vertical, universal, planer/gantry;
up-cut; down-cut; features of the workpiece eg faces (such as flat, square,
parallel, angular), steps/shoulders, slots (such as open ended,
enclosed/recesses, tee), holes (such as drilled, bored), profile forms (such as
vee, concave, convex, gear), serrations, indexed or rotated forms, special
forms
Boring: machine eg horizontal,
vertical; features of the workpiece eg bored holes (such as through workpiece,
to a depth, tapered), holes (such as drilled to depth, drilled through
workpiece, reamed, threaded), external diameters, grooves/recesses,
chamfers/radii, faces (such as flat, square, parallel, angular, milled), slots,
forms (such as indexed, rotated), external tapers
Grinding: machine eg surface (such as horizontal, vertical), cylindrical
(such as external, internal), centreless, universal, thread, profile; features
of the workpiece eg faces (such as flat, vertical, parallel, square to each
other, shoulders and faces), slots, diameters (such as parallel, tapered),
bores (such as counterbores, tapered, parallel), profiles forms, thread forms
(such as vee, right hand, single start, multi-start, internal, external),
angular faces
Presswork: machines eg single action, multiple action; features of the
workpiece eg blanking, notching, piercing, joggling, cropping/shearing,
bending/forming, coiling/rolling, planishing/flattening, first draw, second
draw, compound operations, cupping, embossing, coining
Health and safety: appropriate legislation and regulations eg Health and Safety
at Work Act 1974, Fire Precautions Act 1971, manual handling, Reporting of
Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR) 1995,
Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998, Health and Safety
(First Aid) Regulations 1981; use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
Materials: eg ferrous, non-ferrous, non-metallic, stainless, special
alloys, deep drawing steels
Kinematics: machine tool design;
generation and forming of shapes; six degrees of freedom
Gomework to be handed in by 1st Tueasday back from 1/2 term
P1 explain how five
different secondary machining techniques are used safely on a range of
materials

P2 explain kinematics in
secondary machining techniques

Monocoque Design
Looking at the lesson you need to research monocoque race car design. Look at the work of Colin Chapman from the 1960's as he was the father of the design revolution which overtook formula 1 design.
