 Why do you need to
take this course?
A knowledge of the basic
manufacturing processes is
essential for a successful
engineer in today’s global
marketplace.
 What do engineers do?
Research

Design Products

Manufacture Products

Manage Departments
and Companies
 Course Objectives
Students should understand of the
principles of the major manufacturing
processes
Students should be able to recognize
the standard processes used to
produce products

Students should be able to select the

optimal process to produce a product
What is a manufacturing process?

Manufacturing processes
alter a material’s properties
in a controlled manner
to produce components
of products.
 Types of Processes

1. Material removal

2. Deform or shape material

through heat or pressure

3. Join two or more materials

 Remove Material

1. Sawing
2. Drilling
3. Milling
4. Turning (Lathe)
5. Abrasive finishing
 Deform/Shape Material

1. Casting
2. Rolling/Forging
3. Extrusion/Drawing
4. Sheet metal forming
5. Powder metal processes
 Join Two or More Materials

1. Welding
2. Brazing
3. Soldering
4. Adhesive bonding
5. Fastening
 Math/Manufacturing
In calculus there is usually only one
correct answer to a problem.

In manufacturing there are usually

many ways to make a part, some
ways are better than others

A company must produce products in
an optimal way to compete in
today’s global marketplace.

On all tests and quiz questions

you are expected to give an
optimal answer to a question, not
just an answer that will work.

packaged with a crossword puzzle
Syllabus
 Grading Policy
Make-up work will be allowed only when
arrangements are made prior to
absence.

No two homeworks should be identical*

*Identical homework – one will be graded and
points will be divided by the number of students
involved
Manufacturing Processes
Laboratory Experience
Manufacturing Processes
Laboratory Experience
Provide students with hands on
experience in a manufacturing
laboratory

Students should have the

ability to operate a drill
press, mill, saw, and lathe
Manufacturing Processes
Laboratory Experience

C - Clamp
 Manufacturing Lab
- 9 people have been assigned to each lab

- Equipment used:
Saw
Mill
Drill
Lathe
Hand Tools

- You are expected to attend the lab in which you are

enrolled

- You will be permitted to attend another lab only at the

request of another faculty member or coop staff
 Lab Rules
1. Safety Glasses MUST be worn at all times
2. Good shoes with leather soles - no sandals
3. Do not wear loose fitting clothes in the lab
4. No horseplay
5. Professional conduct including language
6. Report any unsafe conditions to your TA
7. Do not approach someone who is working on a machine from
his or her blind side
8. Identify dangers associated with a machine before you run it.
9. If you break something report it to the TA immediately
10. Clean up before you leave.
11. You will be issued material for one project. If you make a
mistake on a part you can get additional material and machine
another part after you have completed all other components of the
project
12. Have a great experience
