Design for Manufacture ENG314

Hobart

Introduction

In this unit you will build upon your background skills in design that will be developed to a professional engineering standard through a series of design projects dealing with different aspects of mechanical and mechatronic design with a specific focus on manufacture. An introduction will be provided to Finite Element Analysis (FEA) that will be used as a basis for calculating the induced stresses in designed components to determine the structural strength of the proposed design solutions.

Learning Outcomes

  • Identify a series of design requirements in relation to a design brief.
  • Apply and synthesise mechanical and mechatronic engineering theory in a manufacturing related design process.
  • Validate the functional base of a design proposal including the use of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to enable the future identification of peak stresses according to predicted loads.
  • Prepare a precise specification of a design with fully dimensioned and detailed engineering drawings using CAD software.
  • Work as part of a professional engineering team to develop a professional engineering design report.
