Course description and aims

Students acquire fundamental properties of various materials that constitute machines and learn the basic processes, principles, theories on manufacturing technologies that produce shaped parts from the materials.
Students learn the fundamental properties of various materials that constitute machines and the basic processes, principles, theories on manufacturing technologies that produce shaped parts from the materials.
This course covers various manufacturing processes for industrial products such as machines. The knowledge on manufacturing processes are crucial for design. Since manufacturing processes are based on the laws of mathematics, physics and chemistry, students will acquire the fundamentals to understand phenomena of the processes from the scientific viewpoint. In particular, mechanisms of manufacturing processes are organized in terms of the structure and properties of materials.

Student learning outcomes

At the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Explain various manufacturing processes by categorizing them as removal process, joining process and forming process.
2) Design products with consideration of manufacturing processes
3) Explain the relationship between processing mechanism and fundamental materials properties.

Keywords

production, processing, material, machine, forging, casting, powder metallurgy, injection molding, cutting, grinding, polishing, welding, joining, electrical discharge machining, electrochemical machining, chemical machining, laser processing, electron beam processing, ion processing, surface treatment, micromachining

Competencies that will be developed

✔ Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Each class has a specific topic, and the fundamentals concerning properties of materials, forming processes, removal processes, joining processes and modern processes are outlined in turn. Review questions are given for each unit of topics.
