SE 55000 - Advanced Manufacturing Systems And Processes

Planning, analysis, and design of manufacturing processes in the context of a manufacturing system that meets customer quality, cost and delivery requirements; an integrated project will cover major aspects of manufacturing systems engineering and process design. Emphasis will be placed on the design of manufacturing processes (including assembly systems) in terms of physics and design parameters to meet system cost, quality, product variety and delivery objectives. When to use lean and six-sigma techniques in the context of the manufacturing enterprise design will be evaluated analytically and through computer simulation and physical modeling.
