Course title, code: Modern Manufacturing Technologies, GAGEBAN-MODGTECH-1
The aim is to familiarise students with the computer systems used in industrial technologies, their economic characteristics, and conventional additive processes and their accompanying phenomena.
Within the course, students will attend lectures on enterprise activity systems, CAx techniques, accuracy of additive technologies, manufacturing and technological processes, how to calculate printing times, the print process, costing and various conventional and modern additive technologies. In practical lessons, you will learn the methodology of tool edge geometry and in the laboratories you will see demonstrations of the technological variations, machines and accompanying phenomena of FFF, FDM, DLP, SLS, SLM, MJ processes.
Course content - labs:
Knowledge:
- He/She will be able to recognise and apply the processes studied in the previous subjects (Mechanics, Materials, Mechanical Engineering) and apply them (stiffness calculations, sizing, material processes, etc.) to additive technologies.
- Ability to describe technological processes (including economic characteristics) using conventional technologies, to select cutting tools and to apply them in industry.
- Comprehensive knowledge of the basic facts, directions and limits of the subject area of engineering.
- Knowledge of the general and specific mathematical, natural and social science principles, rules, contexts and procedures relevant to the field of engineering.
- Knowledge of the terminology, the main contexts and theories relevant to the field of engineering.
- Comprehensive knowledge of the methods of knowledge acquisition and problem solving in the main theories of the field of engineering.
- Ability to analyse at a basic level the disciplines that make up the knowledge base of the technical discipline, to formulate relationships synthetically and to carry out appropriate evaluative activities.
- Ability to identify routine technical problems, to identify, formulate and solve (by practical application of standard operations) the theoretical and practical background necessary for their solution.
- Ability to construct basic models of technical systems and processes.
- He/She is open to learning about, adopting and authentically communicating professional, technological development and innovation in the field of engineering.
- He/She strives to make self-learning a means to achieve its professional goals.
- Strives to solve problems, preferably in cooperation with others.
- He/she shall strive to make his/her self-learning in mechanical engineering continuous and consistent with his/her professional goals.
- He/she strives to solve problems and make management decisions by listening to the opinions of his/her colleagues, preferably in cooperation.
- Have the stamina and tolerance of monotony required to carry out practical activities.
- In unexpected decision situations, he/she independently thinks through and develops comprehensive, substantiating professional questions on the basis of given sources.
- Responsibly upholds and represents the values of the engineering profession and is open to professionally informed critical comment.
- In the performance of his/her professional duties, he/she will cooperate with qualified professionals from other disciplines (primarily technical, economic and legal).
- Identify shortcomings in the technologies used, process risks and take the initiative to mitigate them.
- He/she is responsible for the consequences of his/her technical analyses, the proposals he/she makes and the decisions he/she takes.
- He/She will be able to recognise and apply the processes studied in the previous subjects (Mechanics, Materials, Mechanical Engineering) and apply them (stiffness calculations, sizing, material processes, etc.) to additive technologies.
- Ability to describe technological processes (including economic characteristics) using conventional technologies, to select cutting tools and to apply them in industry.
