What are Non-Ferrous Metals?

Although non-ferrous metal is everywhere in the workplace, most employees do not know much about it. After all, knowing the properties of non-ferrous metal may not be necessary for assembling a workpiece or driving a forklift, but non-ferrous metal is vital in the manufacturing world, and its importance is only growing.

As vehicles get more sophisticated, the amount of non-ferrous metal used in their construction is increasing. Metal is a material that exhibits properties such as heat or electrical conductivity and hardness. A manufactured metal’s ingredients are mostly mined from ore within the earth. Metallurgy is the study of the properties, behavior, and structure of metals. Basically, it is the study of how to get the best use out of this material.

A non-ferrous metal is a metal in which the main element is not iron. Ferrous metals, on the other hand, consist primarily of iron. The non-ferrous metals that dominate the world of industry are aluminum and copper.

Highly-Interactive Multimedia Format Appeals to All Learning Styles

Amatrol's non-ferrous metals eLearning course features interactive eLearning curriculum that integrates various types of learning methods to create an engaging, effective learning experience. Amatrol’s multimedia eLearning curriculum includes text with voiceovers, videos, 3D animations, pictures, and interactive activities, quizzes, and self-reviews.

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.
