MECH 340 - Manufacturing Processes Credit Hours: 3
This is an introductory course that examines the interactions between design and manufacturing from the designer’s point of view. The first portion of the class is devoted to safe, hands- on experience with manufacturing machines and equipment. Students will have an opportunity to work on civil and mechanical manufacturing machines that are common in machine, woodworking, and sheet metal shops such as a mill, lathe, grinder, belt sander, drill press, and band saw. Common manufacturing processes will be introduced and design guidelines will be developed for each process. The successful student will leave this class with an appreciation that a designer must consider the method of manufacture during the design process to ensure that a product is functional, economically viable, and safe. Basic principles of metal processing; applied mechanics of metal cutting and forming; cost analysis of manufacturing operations.
