MAE 5260
Design for Manufacture and Assembly
Successful component and system design is dependent on the ability to specify products that balance cost, performance, and component robustness. This course will consider methods for design optimization that are driven by an attention to manufacturing and assembly processes while maintaining consideration for functional sensitivities.
Topics
- The student will be able to better understand the role of design engineers as related to industry.
- The student will be able to understand DFMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly) as it applied to design of mechanical systems.
- The student will be able to better understand the role of design engineers as related to industry.
