The course covers an overview of the entire field of product realization, with a specialization in the production phase. The course focuses on those groups of industrial manufacturing methods used to give a material a desired shape and characteristics. For each group of methods conditions, equipment, tools, characteristics and results are covered. The method groups included are plastic molding, casting, machining, assembly, powder-based, polymer-based and laser-based methods.
The course also deals with the production system design and production development, where the links between production performance and costs is crucial. Since the material is of great importance for the result of processing operations, the course starts with basic materials technology. Further more, it is explained how sustainability in production can be influenced through both consciuos choices of methods and materials.
Grading scale: TH - (U, 3, 4, 5) - (Fail, Three, Four, Five)
Assessment: Continuous examination of three assignments and activities can give a maximum of 8 examination points, that together with a written exam with maximum 52 points will give the final grade. A compulsory laboration is also requires.
The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
