3 different types of craft/ trimming knives? and what each used for
-surgical scalpels(very sharp, precision cutting) -metal cased knife(good for tougher materials e.g. thick board) -plastic trimming knife(have retractable blades or blade covers for safety when not in use, like the metal cased knife)
2 of 129
give 2 cutters and explain
-circle cutters (cut arcs, circles in card, paper. vary the diameter of arc or circle to be cut) -perforation cutters (roundish blade that rotates as you push it along, making a line of small cuts, make tear strips-- on forms to detach and send back)

explain when colours have different hues and tones?
-hue means actual colour -tone of colour (how dark, light) can be changed by adding black or white to it -if add white to change colour-- called tint -if add black its a shade -object create different tones when light hits them e.g. on a shirt
9 of 129
how can shading make a shape look 3D (accentuate)
shading a drawing to show depth,light and shade, texture is called rendering, different pencil create different tones (darker, lighter) soft pencil creates wide range of tones -(areas furthest from the light are the darkest)

explain perspective drawing and one-point perspective and two point perspective
Perspective Drawing uses vanishing points- in the distance on horizon line. They are good-producing 3D drawings of products&packaging. One point perspective only uses one vanishing point but two point perspective shows objects edge on
51 of 129
explain isometric drawings
can be used to show an object in 3D and it doesn’t show it in perspective(things dont get smaller in distance) but the dimensions are easier to add. These drawings show only three sides of the object.
52 of 129
explain what nets are
A net is the 2D plan for making a 3D object (surface developments) use solid lines to show the edges you cut and dashed lines for the edges you fold. They show the size and shape of your object and how it fits together.
53 of 129
what are nets useful for
They’re good for modelling ideas and in industry they would be designed with CAD and cut out with CAM then folded and glued. Flat packed packaging is made from nets and it is useful because it doesn’t take up much room so is easy to store& transport

63 of 129
how does CAM work and aid?
Computer Aided Manufacture is the process of manufacturing products with the help of computers. CAD software use numbers to represent each point on the drawing. The x coordinate is left and right, y is forwards and backwards and z is up and down. Th
64 of 129
how does CAD/CAM increase quality and quantity?
CAM-produce high quality products consistently, because machines can be programmed to make lots of same thing accurately less mistakes made this way than hand-means less wasted time&materials Machines- more efficient because they can do things.......
65 of 129
Why are CAD/CAM useful for making models?
Virtual models (3D) can be made. can design something using CAD/CAM and then using a rapid prototyping machine (or a 3D printer) to make it into a 3D model Stereo lithography and laser sintering are slower and more expensive but they can be used too
66 of 129
what is one-off production
eg. school-use laser cutter or a 3D printer-- modelling/printing off part of product In industries manufacturers may use rapid prototyping to make one-off model to check if- improvements/changes the client wants-made before starting mass production
67 of 129
what is batch production
when you draw you design once in CAD and then your machine can make a batch of the product. Rapid manufacture is when you use rapid prototyping processes to manufacture a batch of products or parts of a product.
68 of 129
what is mass production
Mass production done by CAD and cam systems are expensive but in the long run they save money since you can make lots of products quick and accurate

Mechanisms are used to make products stand out and appeal to customers in point of sale displays and packaging. They are used to make products like books and cards more interesting and for persuading customers to buy it.
79 of 129
explain what are levers and disks
Levers create movement and they use a pivot. As one end is pushed down, the other end will move up. Disks create rotary movement; you can make things sin by attacking discs that move around pivots
80 of 129
explain levers forms
Levers- be connected so-form linkages: Split pins are used to link two levers together at a pivot or let a lever rotate. Floating pivots join levers together&they aren’t attached to card Fixed pivots are attached to the card &the levers rotate aroun

give 6 properties a material could have
strength hardness toughness impact resistance flexibility strength to weight ratio
82 of 129
explain the strength of a material
This is the ability to withstand forces. Things may need to resist pulling forces, squashing forces and forces trying to bend them
83 of 129
explain the hardness
ability to withstand scratching, rubbing or denting. Many high-quality graphic products need to be hard to avoid this.
84 of 129
explain the toughness
is the opposite of brittle and if a material is tough it can absorb impacts without breaking or snapping
85 of 129
explain the impact resistance
is the ability to withstand a sudden force without cracking. Copper has a good impact resistance and it can be hit with a hammer and it will not shatter.
86 of 129
explain the flexibility
Flexible materials can bend without breaking. Electrical wires must be flexible so that they can curve around things and rulers are flexible so they bend quite a bit before breaking.
87 of 129
explain the strength to weight ratio
Materials that are strong but don’t weigh much have a good (high) strength to weight ratio. This is important for things like spacecraft and racing cars which need to be strong but also light enough for speed.
88 of 129
explain aesthetic properties a material could have
the way a material looks can be important when deciding what material to use. Colour, texture, pattern and how thing reflect light can be important too. Opaque: means light cant travel through it (its not see through e.g. a brick) Translucent: means
89 of 129
consider the physical properties
What demands will be made on the material? - for example it might have to hold heavy loads or be able to bend or protect things from impact Will it be used outdoors or indoors? - for example if it’s going to be outdoors you need to consider whether
90 of 129
consider the production method
Some materials are easier to join than others – for example wood can be glued, nailed and screwed easily The materials has to be suitable for the intended production method and/or the method to the material – For example you can’t use injection mould
91 of 129
consider the aesthetics (factor affecting selection of material)
If the material is going to be seen, it needs to look good – for example if it needs to fit in with a certain environment it has to look e.g. modern The finish that you apply will change the appearance of the material – for example painting wood can
