| DESCRIPTION: | Continuation of integration of manufacturing and engineering design. Introduction to the engineering design process through the development of industry related engineering projects. In depth instruction on manufacturing processes with major focus on joining. | ||
| TAUGHT: | Fall, Winter, Summer | ||
| CONTENT AND TOPICS: | Materials: - Mechanical/Physical Properties - Metals/Nonmetals Ferrous Nonferrous Alloys Ploymer composite Manufacturing Processes: - Mass Reducing - Milling and Lathe - Thermal Reducing - Mechanical Reducing - Mass Conserving - Joining Processes The Design Process |
||
| GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: | The student will: 1. Understand common material properties and applications. 2. Understand manufacturing processes as they relate to the manufacturing and fabrication of consumer products. - Mass reducing processes - Mechanical reducing (shearing and chip reducing) - Thermal reducing (torch, electrical discharge machine, and high-energy rate machining) - Mass conserving (Molding/Laminating) - Mass conserving deformation (forging, extruding, drawing, rolling, and bending) - Joining processes (Mechanical, Thermal, and Chemical) 3. Gain an ability to function on a multi-disciplinary team, and develop the understanding of how a design and manufacturing environment involves a total team effort. 4. Gain an ability to communicate effectively. 5. Develop the creative aspects of engineering design and the design process in the design and manufacturing of a group project. |
