DESIGN PRECISION MACHINES (42 HOURS)

Design Precision Machines
This course is one of five modules stackable for the Graduate Diploma in Precision Engineering, specialising in Mechatronics.

Today’s machines, be they for semiconductor manufacturing, precision part machining or inspection, operate at faster rates along with increasing precision. This is brought about by designers having skills and knowledge of the machines and the processes. These experienced designers are much sought-after and rare people. Therefore, this highly practical, case study-based course provides participants with the fundamentals of the precision engineering principles and the state-of-the-art design concepts for achieving higher precision and accuracy in machines and products. The course covers the applications of key mechanical components, and practical approaches for machines and mechanisms design and analysis. Case studies are included to help participants to gain the knowledge for addressing the real-world industrial needs.

Why This Course

  • Highly practical and intensive
  • Latest knowledge and up-to-date technology
  • Case studies highlighting industrial applications
  • Expert trainers in the field with industrial experience

Who Should Attend

This course targets at mechatronics/mechanical/electrical/control engineers, precision machines and automation systems designers and researchers, process engineers and plant supervisors. The course is also relevant for participants from industries, such as precision engineering, electronics, machine tools, automotive, aerospace, optics, semiconductor and etc, where accuracy capability and performance is critical to the production.

    Eligible for SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC)

    SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC)

    The SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC) was first introduced during the Singapore’s Budget 2020 and then recently expanded to a larger group of employers in Budget 2022. It encourages employers to invest in enterprise transformation and capabilities of their employees. Eligible employers will receive a one-off S$10,000 credit to cover up to 90% of out-of-pocket expenses on qualifying costs for supportable initiatives, over and above the support levels of existing schemes.

    Submission of SFEC Claim

    Employers are required to submit their SFEC claims manually via its microsite if they fulfil any of the following scenarios:

    • Employers have sent their foreign employees (excluding foreign employees who hold Long-Term Visit Pass Plus) for training on a SFEC eligible course;

    Employers can only submit the claims for SFEC after their employees have completed the training course(s). Click here to download the SFEC Claim e-guide.

    NOTE: You will require a Corppass account with "EPJS_User" role assigned prior to login to your account to manage your claims.

    If you are unsure whether your company is eligible for SFEC, you may submit an enquiry to Enterprise Singapore (ESG) via here for their response.
