BTS - EuroPlastics and Composites - Option CO: Tool design

The holder of this BTS is a technician and operational manager with solid plastics engineering knowledge. The technician's field of activity for this CO option covers the design of tooling for the various plastic transformation or organic composite manufacturing processes

At the end of their training, graduates will be able to:

• Do the preliminary and detailed design of the tooling
• Elaborate the tooling definition file
• Define and improve the tooling maintenance plan
• Participate in the company's exchanges and constitute a potential interlocutor with tooling production companies, capable of taking charge of and satisfying their demand.

The programme is structured around several skill blocks (BC):

BC01 : Responding to a case - Preliminary design  

- Interpreting a preliminary design file

- Identifying and specifying technologies and means of production

BC02 :  Industrial project for detailed design of tooling and industrialisation 

- Keeping a technology watch and searching for information in technical documentation, locally or remotely;

- Formulating and transmitting information, communicating in written and oral form including in English ;

- Draw up and/or take part in drawing up functional specifications for parts or tooling;

- Design and define, using CAD software and associated simulation tools, all or part of a part, assembly or tooling ;

- Define production processes;

- Define and implement tests or simulations to validate a solution;

- Define and organise working environments;

- Define a monitoring plan for the production of a plastic or composite part or subassembly or for the maintenance of tooling ;

- Propose technical, economic and environmental improvements;

- Plan a production run;

- Qualify production resources in production mode;

- Develop and qualify all or part of a tool.

 BC03 - Collaborative project to optimise a product or tooling

- Get involved in a project group and argue for technical choices

- Take part in a collaborative process to design or produce plastic (polymer) or composite parts

 BC04 - Company production management 

- Integrate into a professional environment and capitalise on experience;

 - Launch and monitor a project;

- Coordinate a work group;

- Apply a quality plan, a safety plan, an environmental plan.

This BTS has two options: option CO Tooling Design, which is further upstream of the industrialisation phase, and option POP Production Steering and Optimisation, which is further downstream. GRETA CFA offers a choice of these 2 options, which cover the widest possible spectrum, providing the skills needed to meet the requirements of various plastics processing companies.
