7. Materials Textbook: NOT REQUIRED, but RECOMMENDED
Groover, M. P. (2015). Automation, Production Systems, and Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (4th ed.). Upper Saddle River NJ: Prentice-Hall. 816pp. ISBN
Engineering Notebook: REQUIRED
9-3/4" x 7-1/2", 5x5 quad-ruled, pp. (approx.).
Engineering Problems Paper: REQUIRED
8-1/2" x 11", three hole drilled, ruled five squares/division, 50 pp. (approx.).

8. Engineering Notebook
Anything you can copy, cut, staple, paste, glue, or otherwise persuade to live permanently within the covers of your engineering notebook may be used on the exams …
… EXCEPT old exams and other’s notebook pages.
Can have one notebook for class & exams and
another notebook for lab & project, if desired

9. Recommended Materials
Engineering/Scientific calculator
Mechanical Pencil
0.5 mm, HB or B lead with comfortable grip
Plastic-based Eraser
clickable pen-style suggested

10. Expectations Grading Scale: Weighting: A 90% B 80% C 70% Homework 20%
Project 30%
Exams 50%
Total Possible %

11. Expectations Assignments & Project Components: Exams:
Each question / project component is graded on a 10 point basis. Each assignment is equally weighted.
Exams:
Exams are open Engineering notebook; and closed textbook and old exams. (Homework … maybe not a good idea…)
Necessary tables are identified / provided – store in your engineering notebook.
Do NOT use pen on an exam – significant point reduction for sloppy work.

12. Expectations Due Dates / Late Work:
Assignments and project work are due at the start of class on the due date (see Schedule page).
Unapproved late assignments turned in more than 24 hours after the due date will not be graded and will not receive any credit. Unapproved late assignments turned in during the 24 hour period will be held until the end of the term …
If the student’s grade is borderline, then the held assignment will be graded and assessed 50% of the earned credit.
Borderline is defined as within 1.5% of the next highest grade without considering the late assignment

13. Expectations Make-up Work:
Make-Up work is the student’s responsibility, and is arranged at the lecturer’s discretion, for SDSM&T approved reasons.
Policies:
Foreseeable Circumstances - contact the lecturer as far in advance as possible ( ).
Unforeseeable Circumstances - contact the lecturer as soon as practical (leave phone message).

14. Expectations Academic Honesty:
OK to work together on HW and Labs for this class:
as long as what appears on your sheet is your work, your words, and your writing
OK to copy my materials for this class:
download and print slides to your engineering notebook for this class
download and use my spreadsheet templates for your assignments and practice in this course
Exams are always individual work

17. Lab Schedule
Friday: Lab team/time assigned, Labs will start Tues, Jan 15.
Review slides (Schedule Page) & print assignment (Materials Page)
Meet in Mfg Engineering Lab (need to start/stop labs on time)
Take notes during lab in Engineering Notebook (everyone)
Lab assignments (1 per team) – usually due next lab
brief summary and documentation of design/exercise
short answer to questions (if any)
Copies of Eng Notebooks / EP pages from everyone

18. Manufacturing Operations
What competitive trends exist?
Where are products being made?
What kind of products are being made at these locations?
How are products being made at these locations?
What is the basis for manufacturing competitiveness?
Competitive Advantage(s):

19. Levels of Automation
Manual Production – using single station manned cells operating independently
Automated Production – using single station automated cells operating independently
Automated, Integrated Production – using multi-station automated systems with automated material handling
The appropriate level of automation is situational –
there is no universal best answer!

20. Manufacturing Operations
Mfg Plant Limitations & Capabilities:
Technological Processing Capabilities
Physical Production Capabilities
Production Capacity Limits
Conditions for Appropriate Automation:
Predictable, stable / expanding market
Need to satisfy business objectives of firm
Technology must be available at the right:
Performance
Cost
Maturity

21. Reasons for Automating
IENG 475: Computer-Controlled Manufacturing Systems
Reasons for Automating
To increase labor productivity
To reduce labor cost
To mitigate the effects of labor shortages
To reduce or eliminate routine manual tasks
To improve worker safety
To accomplish processes that cannot be done manually
To improve product quality
To reduce manufacturing lead time
To avoid the high cost of not automating
… when you could have!
(c) 2006, D.H. Jensen

22. Reasons NOT to Automate
Task is too technologically difficult to automate
Product life cycle is too short
Product is too customized
Product demand is too variable
To reduce the risk ($) of product failure
To deal with these aspects, use the USA Principle:
Understand
Simplify
Automate
