Request Info

Print reading skills are essential for anyone directly involved in developing and manufacturing products. Engineers and designers communicate all the technical information required to make a product via prints. Manufacturing personnel must correctly interpret the prints to create the product. Technicians use prints to understand how to repair and troubleshoot machinery. Beginning with the basics, Amatrol’s 96-PR1 Print Reading 1 Learning System leads students to a thorough understanding of print reading techniques and skills.

The 96-PR1 is set up to accommodate either self-directed or traditional classroom formats. This learning system can be used by itself and is also a core system in Amatrol’s project-based learning program. The Print Reading 1 Learning System uses interactive computer- based instruction with both theory and hands-on tutorials consisting of text, digital video, voice, online self-review tests, interactive simulations, color diagrams and color photos. Student curriculum covers industry related skills in print reading, including use of different reference coordinates, creating and editing drawings, using technical drawing views and dimensions, multi-view drawings, and developing schematic diagrams.

Multiview Drawings

Learners begin with an introduction to print reading, including multiview drawings and basic dimensioning. Individual lessons focus on topics like dimensions, line precedence, and angular and circular features. Learners will also practice skills, such as interpreting print drawings when shown an object, selecting the front view of an object, and interpreting angular dimension features on a print.

Sectional Drawings and Fasteners

Learners will study the basic principles of sectional drawings and fasteners, including advanced dimensioning and assembly drawings. Individual lessons focus on topics like drawing scales, title blocks, and types of fasteners. Learners will also practice skills, such as determining a dimension of an object given an undimensioned scaled drawing, identifying the size and type of fastener given an example, and interpreting an assembly drawing.

Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing

Learners using Amatrol’s print reading eLearning course will study basic principles of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, including assembly tolerances and feature control frames. Individual lessons focus on topics like types of conventional tolerances, baseline dimensions, types of geometric features, and the parts of a feature control frame. Learners will also practice skills, such as determining if a part dimension is within tolerance using conventional tolerancing, identifying the correct datum to use as a reference point, and selecting a feature control frame for a part drawing.

Multimedia Curriculum

Amatrol’s unmatched multimedia utilizes text, audio, and stunning 3D animations that engage learners in both theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills. This thorough, exceptionally detailed curriculum is built to begin with the basics and steadily advance to more complex concepts and skills. Through partnerships with key industry leaders and leading edge educators, Amatrol developed the right balance of knowledge and applied skills needed to train learners to work in their chosen field.

Free Learning Management System (LMS)

Amatrol eLearning is easy-to-use for both students and instructors. Its web-based interface is simple to navigate and available on any WebGL-compatible Internet browser. Instructors love Amatrol eLearning for its simple, yet sophisticated Learning Management System (LMS). The LMS allows instructors to create custom courses, monitor student participation, track course progress, assess knowledge levels prior to a course, and test knowledge levels after completion. Learners appreciate the fact that they can start and stop as needed, moving through each Amatrol course at their own pace. If a self-review reveals that they didn’t understand a particular topic as well as they thought they did, they can revisit it before moving on.
