BIOENG 2154 - WORKSHOP IN DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURABILITY

Minimum Credits: 1
Maximum Credits: 1
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) provides a systematic methodology that can be used to analyze product design for improvements in assembly and manufacturing. Students will use DFM to redesign current products for changes in manufacture that lead to reduction in production cost and improved operability/ customer satisfaction. Students will employ modem software tools that accurately model parts for specific manufacturing operations, model part costs, simplify products, find specific avenues to reduce manufacturing and assembly costs, benchmark products, and quantify improvements. Course Objectives : Students will gain hands-on experience incorporating the DFM concepts in a project. Upon completing the course, the students should be able to describe the utility of DFM in product development and early manufacturing design, be able to quantitatively evaluate the impact of design choices on manufacturing cost, and be able to use modem quality control concepts and approaches.
