Design and manufacturing

A new course offered in Spring-Summer Semester 2019, featuring the following elements:
new multiple component
• Subtractive technologies – CNC machining:
product using CNC
• Computer-Aided Manufacturing, ESPRIT software machining and 3D Printing
• Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing technologies) technologies
• Industrial robotics (including mobile robots and Industrial manipulators)
• Industry 4.0: How do we need to change our manufacturing processes? Best Project Award
• Hands-on experience with a design and manufacturing project
Questions:
• What is the best strategy to manufacture a new part?
• How to design and manufacturing system for the factories of future (Industry 4.0)?
• How to optimize the production strategy and processes?

Featured projects from Summer 2018
