The STEAM Project

Steam logoThe STEAM project identified skills that were being lost to the manufacturing and engineering sectors due to their ageing workforce, and captured the skills on an interactive DVD-ROM to be used as a training tool for younger workers.

DVD-Roms have been developed in the following areas –

Glass bending - Neon light manufacturing
In association with www.butterfieldsigns.co.uk

Metrology - Accurate measuring of engineered parts with a bore gauge
In association with www.bowers.co.uk

Pattern Making - How to draft patterns for cloth manufacture
In association with www.complantechnology.co.uk

From Fleece to Finished Blanket - The complete manufacturing process
In association with www.hainsworth.co.uk

Fabric Finishing - An in-depth look at the finishing process
In association with www.hainsworth.co.uk

The DVD-Roms are available to buy.
