In consideration of the reference table AA of the program "Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering", this course contributes to the development, to the acquisition and to the evaluation of the following experiences of learning:
|
Content
- Manufacturing process selection : selection strategy, project of process selection.
- Complements on machining and computer assisted processing: cutting forces, automatisation, Mastercam programming project and realization on machine.
- Additive manufacturing: processes, process selection criteria, metallurgical quality of the workpieces, project on free workpiece in polymer produced by FDM (Fused deposition modelling)
- Non-conventional machining processes: electro-erosion, laser cutting, water cutting.
- Virtual manufacturing: Hypothesis of finite elements calculations, practical applications case study.
Teaching methods
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the information in this section is particularly likely to change.
- Magistral courses
- Three projects (process selection, computer assisted manufacturing, additive manufacturing FDM)
- Plant visits
Evaluation methods
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the information in this section is particularly likely to change.
- Projects are part of the evaluation
- Oral exam during the exam session
Other information
Bases of manufacturing are usefull for the understanding of the course but will be recalled in lecture 1
