About the course
Aim
The course is designed to build on a customer-centered perspective, understanding and skills to meet future industrial situation. By working on an industrial project the students will be trained to identify and analyze problems based on given conditions in an actual industrial context. After the course the student should:
- be able to describe and motivate how manufacturing equipment, handling equipment and control technology are utilized for the design and operation of flexible manufacturing systems, also, taking into account the interaction between man and machine.
- be able to argue for how different production systems can be designed to meet various industrial needs.
- be able to use concepts and models for analysis of production systems with consideration to production strategy.
- In the context of a small project engineering team discuss and argue for the identified improvement areas for a production system design.
Content
The course covers various types of production systems and for which such industrial applications as they are most prevalent. We will examine how the different processing methods, production equipment, handling equipment and control technology work together with respect to product, machine and man. The theoretical part includes, for example:
- The main types of production systems in the form of multi-purpose workshops, product workshops and general production workshops
- Automated lines, functional design, NC shops, FMS, etc
- Methods to achieve flexibility.
- Production philosophies applied to the machines in the production system like Lean, mass-customization, individualized production
- Circular manufacturing and the impact on the production system.
