Preview Questions Tool and Die Maker | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: How can a CNC programmer optimize cycle time when machining a part with multiple holes?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By choosing a less expensive material

By using canned cycles and appropriate tool offsets

By selecting a faster tool and reducing cutting depth

By increasing the feed rate and spindle speed

Question 2: What is the significance of using a die insert in tool fabrication?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It adds decorative features to the stamped parts

It allows for easy replacement of worn-out die components without replacing the entire die

It provides support for the press during high-impact operations

It ensures that the die remains lightweight for easier handling

Question 3: How does "programming for tolerance" ensure part precision in CNC machining?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It speeds up programming by ignoring tolerance considerations and focusing only on general dimensions

It ensures that the program accounts for allowed deviations, keeping parts within specified tolerance limits

It reduces the need for tolerance programming by assuming that parts will fit within general specifications

It tracks only final outcomes, ignoring the critical role of tolerance programming in ensuring part precision

Question 4: How does "tool life prediction" improve the scheduling of maintenance and repair in manufacturing?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It reduces the need for prediction by assuming tools will last for a fixed period without considering wear rates

It speeds up maintenance by ignoring tool life prediction and focusing solely on immediate repairs

It tracks only part production, ignoring the role of predictive maintenance in improving tool care

It allows for data-driven decisions on when to replace or repair tools, minimizing downtime and improving efficiency

Question 5: What does a solid black line on a blueprint typically represent?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

An invisible feature or cut

A centerline

A dimension or tolerance

A visible edge or outline of a part

Question 6: How does "preventive maintenance" improve the reliability of tools in manufacturing?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It tracks only tool failures, ignoring the importance of proactive maintenance in preventing breakdowns

It reduces the need for preventive maintenance by assuming tools will work efficiently without intervention

It schedules regular check-ups to maintain tools and prevent unexpected failures

It speeds up production by ignoring maintenance schedules and focusing only on tool usage
