GE 1004 - Computer IntegratedManufacturing 2

Institution:

Milwaukee School of Engineering

Subject:

Description:

This course teaches the fundamentals of computerizedmanufacturing technology. It builds on the solid-modeling skills developed in the Introduction to Engineering Design course. Students use 3-D computer software to solve design problems. They assess their solutions throughmass propriety analysis (the relationship of design, function andmaterials),modify their designs, and use prototyping equipment to produce 3-Dmodels. The course includes these integrated concepts: ComputerModeling: Students use 3-D software formass property analysis; Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Equipment: Students develop an understanding of the operating procedures and programming capabilities ofmachine tools; Computer-aidedManufacturing (CAM): Students convert computer-generated geometry into a programto direct the operation of CNCmachine tools; Robotics: Students programrobots to handlematerials in assembly-line operations. FlexibleManufacturing Systems: Teams of students designmanufacturing work cells and tabletop factories to solve complex problems that arise in integratedmultiple pieces of computer-controlled equipment.
