Lesson Plan

Week Subject Related Preparation
1) An introduction to the scope and significance of manufacturing worldwide, followed by an overview of the structure of technologies and highlights of key topics. Then, a framework is presented for planning manufacturing processes, and for evaluating process performance based on four key attributes. Additionally Industry 4.0 and Computer Integrated Manufacturing are presented. -
2) This module describes machining, the most common process of material removal. Chapters address the mechanics of material deformation, estimates of material removal rate and cutting forces, practical aspects of turning and milling operations, and methods of machining advanced materials and complex parts. -
3) Cutting processing: Analysis of cutting procedures, tool wear and lifetime, with an emphasis on lathing, cutting (3-axial and 5-axial), drilling and grinding. Mechanical engineering measurement techniques: Measurement gear, gauges, jigs, measurement devices and modern measurement machines. -
4) Cutting conditions, cutting materials, production of inserts, cutting fluids. Combination of different cutting parameters to achive best and economic results. -
5) Understanding the cost of manufacturing a part or product, and its relationship to the process details and production volume, is essential to effective scale-up. This module presents a methodology for estimating manufacturing cost, and examples.. -
6) This module introduces casting, whereby a metal part is made by solidification within a mold. Modules describe sand casting, die casting, and investment casting processes; rate-limiting steps and factors governing part microstructure, quality, and cost are also analyzed. -
7) Visit of Casting company== Demonstration of following casting processes: a.Expendable mold processes – uses an expendable mold which must be destroyed to remove casting Mold materials: sand, plaster, and similar materials, plus binders b.Permanent mold processes – uses a permanent mold which can be used many times to produce many castings Material sciences and mechanical specifications of materials
