Aims:
iQSim develops and disseminates a new generation of training methodologies that
are applicable to European wide mechanical industry sectors (fabrication
industries, VET schools and SME¿s). Innovative online simulator services that
are interconnected to state-of-the art Computer Algebra Services provide easy
to use graphical interfaces that optimize cost- and time effective transfer of
industrial production process and technology know-how to VET students. The
combination of new pedagogical methodologies and simulator services, extend
existing training methods by offering Quality Assurance of production process
training when it starts, during a training session, and when it has been
completed.
Partnership:
The consortium has a strong industrial presence with strong ties to research
within utilization of new pedagogical methodologies (HiST), development of
effective simulator tools that utilise CAS tools (HCR and UTH), and
connections towards mechanical industry (HiST, CFL, KU and MHtE) leading to
identification of inadequacies in existing training systems and international
standards for effective train the trainer delivery. HiST offers expertise in
distance learning methodologies, blended learning, and visual communication
and collaboration services. The partnership has complementary expertise and
the tasks
Results:
Simulator tools that include the most frequently used welding forms: i) square
butt welding, ii) v-bevel welding, iii) fillet welding, iv) x-bevel welding,
and v) calculation of production costs for the four welding forms above.
The simulations handle the following main critical parameters in an industrial
production process environment:
I) The volume that must be welded depends of the angle and
the thickness of the plate
II) The added material depend on the number of beads and the
number of layers
III) The number of staff hours and the total production costs
is affected by I and II
IV) The maximum hardness in the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) and
the extent of this zone
The web-based simulator services will provide quality assurance design by
including risk analysis into the training environment
New pedagogical methodologies offer Quality Assurance to industrial production
process training in VET schools by utilizing interactive simulator tools, in
combination with for instance Activity Based Training (ABT). ABT follows the
industrial production processes, by utilizing work orders and work packages.
The final result of the training is a complete product. The training method
may be utilized in a blended learning framework consisting of face-to-face
on-site training, e-learning solutions, high quality video streaming, and
video conferencing. ABT may be utilized in Skills Upgrading Processes where
theory and practice are closely connected.
The iQSim training delivery validates the new simulator tools in industrial
training production process
Instructional video material (streaming or DVD) for demonstration of skills,
training methods, and simulator tools.
Dissemination of the new learning environment to VET schools and companies that
certify welders in Hungary, Sweden, Lithuania and Norway.
Awareness rising and delivery of instructor training to welder trainers.
Delivery of training courses to welder.
Seminars, conferences and exhibitions for transfer of knowledge to stakeholders
in Europe.'
