Final terms: This course,
focussed on manufacturing processes, is given in the first year of the study industrial
design engineering.
It gives an overview of the various basic manufacturing processes (casting, forming,
separation, cutting, non-traditional machining) with their possibilities and limitations.
Attention is paid to the engineering of manufacturing processes regarding quality
assurance, dies & tools, machine-tools, process planning and cost calculation. The
course ends with aspects of design for manufacturing (DFM).
With all this knowledge over process and material parameters a design engineer should
be able to make a first, rough decision about his design approach, whether to cast, to
form or to cut out of a block. He would be aware of the influence of the material
properties, the product shape and batch size on the selection of the manufacturing
process.
Parallel to the course students have to apply the theory and manufacture a product in
groups. There is a follow up course in the third year that brings more information about
the processes and the industrial production.
As a goal can be stated that a design engineer would be able to communicate with
production engineers in order to obtain designs which can be realised without too high
manufacturing costs. Students of production engineering get more, deeper insight in
manufacturing and will be able to design the production itself.
Remarks (specific information about assesment, entry requirements, etc.):
- There are regular computer tests added to the course.
- The assesment consists of two parts: 1. computer, 2. written assesment.
- There is an additional lecture a few days before the examination where students can ask
questions.

Goals:
Knowledge of the various manufacturing processes and the corresponding terminology.
Knowledge of process planning and solution of simple process planning problems.
Insight into process and material parameters, constraints to the design. Awareness of the
influence of material properties, product shape and batch size on the selection of
manufacturing processes. Relation between design and manufacturing. |
Computer use:
The course
is supported by computer aided learning: computer tests to check the progress of students
and computer exercises to learn to solve process planning problems. |
Laboratory project(s):
See
for laboratory practice wbp516. |
Design content:
The
course provides basic manufacturing knowledge to obtain designs which can be realised
without too high manufacturing costs. |
Percentage of design: 50% |
