Introduction

The use of circular economy principles and sustainable development goals in combined additive and subtractive manufacturing applications, as well as in manufacturing logistics and supply chains. This includes engineering measurements, statistical process control, the need for risk-based thinking in quality management systems for ISO 9001 certification, and statistical quality control methods. The course also covers lean manufacturing and Six Sigma concepts, manufacturing assembly systems and lines, and robotics applications in manufacturing and fabrication systems.

Content

NB! This is an elective course and may be cancelled if fewer than 10 students are enrolled by August 20th for the autumn semester.

Introduction to the Use of Circular Economy Principles and Sustainable Development Goals in Combined Subtractive and Additive Manufacturing Applications, subtractive manufacturing [Metal cutting Principles, Cutting Tools and Operations, Machining Economics, computer aided manufacturing (CAM) and Computer Numerical Control (CNC): ISO programming and conversational programming (OKUMA and MAZATROL)], additive layer manufacturing, Metrology [theoretical and practical aspects of Engineering measurement using coordinate measuring machines (CMM)], Statistical Process Control (SPC) and statistical quality control (SQC) methods, lean manufacturing and Six Sigma, Manufacturing lines and line balancing, robotics in manufacturing and fabrication systems.

Course assessment

The faculty decides whether early dialogue will be held in all courses or in selected groups of courses. The aim is to collect student feedback for improvements during the semester. In addition, a digital course evaluation must be conducted at least every three years to gather students’ experiences.
