This course studies manufacturing system configuration, process flow design and their evaluation. The student will learn the basic concepts and methods of simulation techniques to design and evaluate manufacturing systems in which all workcells, including robots, material handling systems and other auxiliary equipment are functioning to maximum efficiency and productivity.
This course aims to help undergraduate students to understand the contemporary issues on additive manufacturing technology and its industrial applications. The students will survey related literatures, discuss the pros and cons of the technology and identify future possibilities of the 3D printing technology. Having successfully completed this course, the student will be able to understand the basic technologies of 3D printing and their applications, and perform digital design of conceptual parts, direct manufacturing of it using 3D printing, and surface finishing for better quality.
This course introduces the contemporary research topics and applications of additive manufacturing (AM) technologies. The systematic AM process from design to manufacturing is examined comprehensively. Students will also learn the concept of ‘Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM)’ with practice using the various / up-to-date AM resources (HW/SW) in the UNIST 3D printing research center.
Mechanical Engineering @ UNIST
Department of Mechanical Engineering (ME) at UNIST is actively thrusting the development of science and engineering through basic research and convergence with various disciplines: energy solutions, novel transportation, automation, control, and robotics for human convenience, micro/nanotechnology, complex multi-physical analysis, and bio-mechanical systems. Through this effort, we are contributing to maintaining the leadership of the automotive, shipbuilding, and heavy industries in Ulsan, the industrial capital of Korea, and providing significant momentum for the development of new industries, such as manufacturing technology innovations, bio and hydrogen economy.
