Learning outcome

Knowledge - Most common production methods and the products made by these Methods - Some highly specialized production Methods - Economic aspects of choosing production Methods - Environmental aspects of choosing production Methods Skills - Understanding of industrial Production - Usage of industrial machines - Calculate and choose production parameters - Choose of tooling - Choose of optimal production Methods General knowledge - Students should be able to see the choice of production method in a holistic perspective. This means in particular ecological, environmental conditions. - Students should have sufficient knowledge of different production processes to understand how choice of Method affects a product development process.

Learning methods and activities

The course can be given as a guided self-study if less than 6 students are registered.

Lectures (Lectures can be completely or partially replaced by a series of films that cover the content of lectures) - Compulsory assignments- Laboratory work (Excursions) Completion of excursions may fall out some years

A points system is used where different scores can be given for different tasks The final grade is based on a 4-hour written school exam which is carried out in Inspera. Postponed written exam in August. Approved compulsory work and laboratory exercises are valid two years back if repeated.
