Design and manufacturing II

This MIT OpenCourseWare offers assignments (with solutions), exams (without solutions), lab notes and tools taken from the Design and manufacturing II undergraduate course given as part of MIT’s Mechanical Engineering programme in Spring 2003.

This course introduces you to modern manufacturing with four areas of emphasis: manufacturing processes, equipment/control, systems, and design for manufacturing. The course exposes you to integration of design, engineering, and management disciplines and practices for analysis and design of manufacturing enterprises. Emphasis is on the physics and stochastic nature of manufacturing processes and systems, and their effects on quality, rate, cost, and flexibility.

Topics include process physics and control, equipment design and automation/control, quality, design for manufacturing, industrial management, and systems design and operation. The group project requires design and fabrication of parts using mass-production and assembly methods to produce a product in quantity.
