ARM222 — Manufacturing Process Design
This course covers process management and design in the field of manufacturing and mechatronics. The primary emphasis is process design, with an emphasis on manufacturing constraints. Topics include cycle time, production time, barrier identification, first pass yield, quality, benchmarking, cost analysis, continuous improvement and training in working effectively in team environment. A critical component of this class is one or more realistic factory simulations where students are assigned a role in a design project team and are given a timeline, a budget, a ?customer? and other manufacturing parameters. After completing the project, students present their results and learning outcomes.
Prerequisites: ARM-176, ARM183, ARM-193, ARM-198, MTH-115
