Course detail

Technological Aspects of Design and Retrofitting of Production Machines

FSI-GTC-KAcad. year: 2016/2017

This course completes the theoretical knowledge in the field of Production machines, systems and robots with practice. Students will be introduced gradually with the technological design of castings, forgings, castings, and machined parts, following their finishing on modern NC machines. Further furthermore, they learn to judge wear and disturbance of production machinesand operationally and economically design their repair or replacement, and all within the requirements of pan-European standards ISO 9000. Information is applied to each machine tool from the group of machines at the Institute of production machines, systems and robotics, on their mechanical, electrical parts and their control systems.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

The subject develops invention and practical erudition of students as to technical aspects of design, repairs, and up-dating of production machines and devices, and assists the students to apply the acquired theoretical knowledge at market competitive environment.

Prerequisites

Complete and thorough knowledge of design of productions (tool and forming) machines

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The course is taught through theoretical lectures and practical interpretations in a group of machine tools in the laboratory of the Institute of production machines, systems and robotics, from which listeners individually select a machine whose repair and eventual retrofitting describe the semester work. This work is the basis for the semester exam. According to the possibility of teaching can be organized lectures for students by practitioners and excursions to companies focused on activities related to the course content.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Oral examination in the range of complex topics of lectures accompanied semester work on the selected machine tool from the machine in the laboratory of the Institute of Production Machines, Systems and Robotics.
The classification takes into account the content and form of the term project

Aims

The knowledge of students will be enriched through a new view of manufacturing process, logistics, and economy of an engineering company, and they will learn how to find their way round production process, repairs, and up-dating of machines and equipment. Practically verify operation during repairs and retrofitting of concrete production machinery.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Checking of knowledge in the range of complex topics of lectures accompanied semester work on the selected machine tool from the machine in the laboratory of the Institute of Production Machines, Systems and Robotics.
