Designing for Economical Production, H.E. Trucks

Course Notes

Coordinator:

Kevin M. Hubbard, Assistant Professor of Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering.

Objectives:

Students will perform team based work to bring a product from conceptual design through manufacture.  Activities will include detail design and tolerancing, material selection, cost estimation, process planning, software planning and implementation, and product fabrication.  Course deliverables will include a written report, all design data and analyses, and one or more working, physical products.

Topics and Schedule:

  1. Material Selection (7.5 hours)
    • Mechanical Properties
    • Physical Properties
    • Property Ratios (Performance Indices
    • Ashby Material Selection Charts
    • Producibility
    • Weighted Property Analyses
  2. Process Selection (6 hours)
    • General Considerations
    • Tolerance and Surface Finish Requirements
    • Material/Process Capability
    • Production Volume Requirements
    • Production Rate Calculations
  3. Process Planning and Route Sheet Generation (3 hours)
  4. Inspection and Measurement (4.5 hours)
  5. Tolerance Specification (6 hours)
    • Limits and Fits
    • Traditional Tolerance Specification Methods
    • Statistical Tolerance Specification Methods
  6. Design for Manufacture (3 hours)
  7. Design for Assembly (3 hours)
  8. Manufacturing Cost Estimation (6 hours)
    • Cost Estimation Structure
    • Heuristic Methods
    • Data Sources
    • Make or Buy Decisions
  9. Project Design Team Advising (6 hours)

Professional Component:

This course introduces product/process design to senior level students, and allows those students to integrate the subject matter covered in nearly all of their previous discipline specific courses. This course has significant engineering design content.

Relationship to Program Educational Objectives:

This course contributes to the following Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering Program Educational Objectives:

1.      To provide experiences which culminate in comprehensive engineering reports, and ensure that students command the tools and techniques with which to produce effective documents.

2.      To provide students with experiences which expose them to the skills and techniques associated with the practice of industrial engineering.

3.      To foster in our students the desire and capacity for life long learning.

4.     To provide opportunities for students to work in multi-disciplinary teams.
