Introduction

This online resource will give you a good introduction to the world of manufacturing as part of our Protec 12 course at Lockview High School.

The Alliance for Innovative Manufacturing (AIM) has developed an introductory website for you showing how various items are made. It covers over 40 different products and manufacturing processes, and includes almost 4 hours of manufacturing video. It is targeted towards non-engineers and engineers alike. Think of it as your own private online factory tour, or a virtual factory tour.

If you've ever wondered how things are made products like candy, cars, airplanes, or bottles or if you've been interested in manufacturing processes, like forging, casting, or injection molding it can be found here.
