Part2 Machine Design Unit 1Machine Designed Reading Target 1．Understand that what is the machine design and production design. 2．Know that the selection of materials in engineering design. Text The complete design of a machine is a complex process. The designer must have a good background in such fields as static, kinematics, dynamics, and strength of materials, and in addition, be familiar with the fabricating materials and processes [1]. The designer must be able to assemble all the relevant facts, and make calculations, sketches, and drawing to convey manufacturing information to the shop. One of the first steps in the design of any product is to select the material from which each part is to be made. Numerous materials are available to todays designers. The function of the product, its appearance, the cost of the material, and the cost of fabrication are important in making a selection, a careful evaluation of the properties of a material must be made prior to any calculations. Careful calculations are necessary to ensure the validity of a design. Calculations never appear on drawings, but are filed away for several reasons. In case of any part failures, it is desirable to know what was done in originally designing the defective components. Also, an experience file can result from having calculations from past projects. When a similar design is needed, past records are of great help. The checking of calculations (and drawing dimensions) is of utmost importance. The misplacement of one decimal point can ruin an otherwise acceptable project. For example, if one were to design a bracket to support 100 1b when it should have been figured for 1000 1b, failure would surely be forthcoming [2]. All aspects of design work should be checked and rechecked. The computer is a tool helpful to mechanical designers to lighten tedious calculations and provide extended analysis of available data. Interactive systems, based on computer capabilities, have made possible the concep
