Course detail

Simultaneous Engineering

FSI-PIN-A Acad. year: 2021/2022 Summer semester

Fundamentals of team work. Cooperation between supplier and customer(preparation of a concept of solution, casting design and its prototype, batch production). Multimedia communications. Rapid prototyping (a quick manufacture of a prototype using one of the RP methods,i.e. selective sintering,stereolitography, laminating,etc). Simulation software programs aimed at optimizing the final product (used during casting pouring,solidification and cooling).
Technological characteristics of the design (Designing castings to avoid foundry defects).

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Knowledge of a multimedia communication , rapid prototyping
using simulation programs,etc.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of a foundry technology, especially with respect to an optimal foundry casting design.Knowledge of rapid prototyping methods and basic computer simulation methods used in foundry technology.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Attendance in lectures is recommended
Credit: semestr project – obligatory

Language of instruction

English

Aims

The course familiarises students with basic principles of new philosophy
cooperation customer-supplier based on the teamwork approach
from the first idea up to the final realisation of the product.
The main aim is to provide students with knowledge
of the latest communication possibilities between a customer and supplier,
as well as with possible ways of an effective cooperation using the rapid
prototyping methods,computer-aided simulation and the like.
