Objectives
Discription:
This course is designed to provide an engineering processes overview in the product development, from the functional requirements to their manufacturing processes and their inspection.
Knowledge:
- To identify the functional requirements expressed in the product drawings.
- Basic concepts about manufacturing technologies.
- Basic concepts about metrological inspection, and about equipment used in the industry;
- Basic concepts to understand the influence of economical and commercial information in the manufacturing systems.
Do:
- To interpret surface finish and dimensional and geometric tolerances in the technical drwings.
- To select manufacturing technologies to a given product.
- To select equipment to the quality control.
- To select manufacturing systems.
Soft skills:
Teamwork, technology and global development.
