Description
This module is designed to develop a student’s practical workshop skills while also giving in-depth knowledge of advanced manufacturing techniques as well as engineering technologies commonly used in industry. After this module a student should have acquired the practical manual machining skills to produce relatively complex components, requiring several different set-ups, while working to tight tolerances.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
1.
Demonstrate knowledge of workshop safety, personal protection equipment (PPE) and general health and safety regulations.
2.
Apply a good skill set in manual processes, including drilling, milling, turning, grinding and fabrication processes, and to competently operate such machinery and to be able to produce complex engineering components.
3.
Manufacture components to geometrical specifications in an engineering workshop.
4.
Use metrology equipment and demonstrate an understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing.
5.
Describe manufacturing and machining processes commonly used in industry to produce complex components including, CNC machining centres & turning centres, advanced grinding operations, advanced welding and cutting technologies.
Teaching and Learning Strategies
The module includes 4 hours per week in the workshop to facilitate learning by doing and 1 hour per week theory lecture.
Module Assessment Strategies
Practical Evaluation of Assignments and Theoretical Continuous Assessment
Repeat Assessments
Repeat Attend practical component. Repeat assessment of theory.

This text is an unbound, binder-ready edition. Fundamentals of Modern Manufacturing: Materials, Processes, and Systems, 5th Edition, is designed for a first course or two-course sequence in Manufacturing at the junior level in Mechanical, Industrial, and Manufacturing Engineering curricula. Given its coverage of engineering materials, it is also be suitable for Materials Science and Engineering courses that emphasize Materials Processing. In addition, it may be appropriate for technology programs related to the preceding engineering disciplines. Most of the books content focuses on Manufacturing Processes (about 65% of the text), but it also covers Engineering Materials and Production Systems.
