Course Overview and Objectives: Engineers Edge Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Assembly (DFA): Concurrent engineering practices and integration. Design & manufacturing processes review, analysis and cost reduction. Component manufacturing process selection (MPS). ...
The vehicle manufacturing industry is a useful example of this practice. Vehicle manufacturers aim for 95% recycling in new vehicles, and of course there is a healthy reuse market for vehicle components supplied by vehicle dismantlers. The incorporation into the design process of the whole-life mod...
CorradoPoli, inDesign for Manufacturing, 2001 1.5ENGINEERING DESIGN Engineering design generally follows but overlaps industrial design, as illustrated inFigure 1.1. Engineering design consists of four roughly sequential but also overlapping stages orsubprocesses, each corresponding to a design problem type...
Draw up design criteria involving concepts, themes, performance, and manufacturing; Propose initial design ideas based on a company or client’s requirements and budgets; Make presentations to clients or senior design managers, even when presenting design proposals or tendering for contracts; Formulate ...
Note that these two objectives are inconsistent, i.e., improvement in one exacerbates the other and vice versa. In addition, due to the mechanism’s in-field application and also manufacturing process, the design method must fulfill the third item. It is obtained by imposing bounds to the ...
believe that sustainability-oriented innovation should have a system scope to explain multidimensional objectives [46], while system design thinking is to implement design concepts into the design process and manufacturing process in a user-centered approach [47]. Therefore, we integrate the three ...
In the example above, manufacturing analytics are presented in a neat production dashboard, where a ‘dark’ theme is chosen after careful consideration of a few colors. Our final suggestion concerning colors is to be mindful when using “traffic light” colors. For most people, red means “st...
The objectives of the course included: design, graphics, analysis methods, teamwork, computer applications and computer programming. Design, the main emphasis of the course, was covered using a project approach. The project involved a swing set that was designed, produced and assembled during the ...
- A good understanding of multiple materials and fabrication methods and /or the construction and manufacturing delivery process is required. - An ability to offer constructive advice and direction to your team to help navigate through a project’s aesthetic and pragmatic requirements.- You will be...
Manufacturing is often carried out by OEM in Mainland China. For this reason, the curriculum at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has already significantly shifted from process design to product design. New product design courses have been developed for freshmen, seniors, ...
