Precision Learning
Precision Learning in the Classroom
PTC University uses the Precision Learning methodology to develop effective, comprehensive class
material that will improve the productivity of both individuals and organizations. PTC then teaches
using the proven instructional design principal of Tell Me, Show Me, Let Me Do:
Topics are introduced through a short presentation, highlighting the key concepts.
These key concepts are then reinforced by seeing them applied in the software application.
You then apply the concepts through structured exercises.
After the course, a Pro/FICIENCY assessment is provided to enable you to assess your
understanding of the materials. The assessment results will also identify the class topics that
require further review.
At the end of the class, you will either take a Pro/FICIENCY assessment via your PTC University
eLearning account, or your instructor will provide training on how to do this after the class.
Precision Learning After the Class

Each student that enrolls in a PTC class has a PTC University eLearning account. This account will
be automatically created if you do not already have one.
As part of the class, you receive additional content in your account:
A Pro/FICIENCY assessment from the course content that generates a Recommended Learning
Report based on your results.
A Web-based training version of the course, based on the same instructional approach of lecture,
demonstration, and exercise. The Recommended Learning Report will link directly to sections
of this training that you may want to review.
Please note that Web-based training may not be available in all languages. The Web-based training
is available in your account for one year after the live class.
Precision Learning Recommendations
PTC uses a role-based training approach. The roles and the associated training
are graphically displayed in a curriculum map. Curriculum maps are available for
numerous PTC products and versions in the training section of our Web site at
http://www.ptc.com/services/edserv/learning/paths/index.htm.
Please note that a localized map may not be available in every language and that the map above is
partial and for illustration purposes only.
Before the end of the class, your instructor will review the map corresponding to the course you
are taking. This review, along with instructor recommendations, should give you some ideas for
additional training that corresponds to your role and job functions.

Configuring Turning Operations
2012 PTC Module 3 | Page 1

Exercise 1: Configuring a Turning Operation
Objectives
After successfully completing this exercise, you will be able to:
Create manufacturing operations.
Select existing workcells when configuring machine tools.
Assemble fixtures.
Create coordinate systems when specifying machine zero positions.
Specify retract planes.
Scenario
You need to configure an operation that involves specifying a machine tool by selecting a
pre-configured Mori-Seki workcell. You also assemble a fixture that represents the Lathe spindle.
You configure the machine zero coordinate system for the operation. This involves creating a
new coordinate system in the manufacturing model. This coordinate system references model
geometry from the fixture assembly. Finally, you specify the retract plane relative to the machine
coordinate system.

Scenario
You need to assemble reference models to two different manufacturing models. You start by opening
the coupler_mm manufacturing model and assemble the coupler part using the Merge by Reference
option. This option copies all the part geometry into one merge feature in the reference model.
You then open the coupler_insert manufacturing model and assemble the coupler_insert part using
the Inherited option. The Inherited option gives you the flexibility to modify geometry and features
on the inherited reference part without changing the original coupler_insert part if required.

Select the EXTERNAL MERGE feature in the model tree.
Notice the feature highlights in the COUPLER_MM_REF.PRT model.
An external merge feature has been created in the new reference model. Note the
geometry of the merge feature cannot be edited directly; however, additional features can
be added to the new reference model as required. In addition, the merge feature can be
updated to show any changes from the original reference part.
Click Regenerate from the Operate group.
Task 2: Open the coupler_insert manufacturing model.

Create workpiece models using the Inherited Feature option.
Suppress features in workpiece models with inherited features.
Add features to workpiece models with inherited features.
Scenario
You need to create a workpiece in a manufacturing model using the Inherited Features option. The
workpiece represents a casting, so you need to suppress a number of features in the workpiece
and add material to the workpiece to ensure the workpiece accurately represents the as-cast
version of the casting.

In the References dialog box, click Close.
Click Yes in the Missing References message
window.
Select Concentric from the Circle types
drop-down menu in the dashboard.
4. Create a circle equal in radius with the top edge of the bottle.
5. Complete the extrusion.
