CONCURRENT ENGINEERING

M.Tech I Year II Semester (R22)

Prerequisites

Computer-Aided Design

Course objective: To provide a systematic approach to the integrated, concurrent design of products and their related processes, including manufacture and support.

Course Outcomes

At the end of the course, the student will be able to

  • Understand the need of concurrent engineering and strategic approaches for product design.
  • Apply concurrent design principles to product design.
  • Analyze the manufacturing concepts in qualitative and physical approach.
  • Design assembly workstation using concepts of simultaneous engineering.
  • Understand the concurrent mechanical design and new product development.
