Last Wednesday, students from Year 11 and 12 Furnishings and Industrial Technology Skills visited two industry workplaces. Their first stop was Caloundra Framing Factory where they were shown commercial picture framing practices. Students were able to make strong connections between the framing processes and equipment to those used in our own college workshop.

     

The second stop was to a local large-scale, automated cabinet making factory. During the visit, students were given a tour of their CAD modelling room, streamlined production processes and assembly line. Students were amazed by the many CNC routing machines, conveyor belts and several robotic arms which help store and transport projects around the factory.
