Process Engineering IE550 -- Manufacturing Systems Fall 2008 Dr. R. A. Wysk Chapter 6. PROCESS ENGINEERING ? Process planning is also called: manufacturing planning, process planning, material processing, process engineering, and machine routing. ? Which machining processes and parameters are to be used (as well as those machines capable of performing these processes) to convert (machine) a piece part from its initial form to a final form predetermined (usually by a design engineer) from an engineering drawing. ? The act of preparing detailed work instructions to produce a part. ? How to realize a given product design. PRODUCT REALIZATION PROCESS PLANNING PROBLEMS FACING MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY Fact: Only 11% of the machine tools in the U.S. are programmable. More than 53% of the metal-working plants in the U.S. do not have even one computer-controlled machine. Some problems: Cannot justify the cost Lack of expertise in using such machines Too small a batch size to offset the planning and programming costs Source: Kelley, M.R. and Brooks, H., The State of Computerized Automation in US Manufacturing, J.F.

Mass production Objective: Cost Approaches: process design, optimization, materials selection, facilities design How do we process engineer? How can we make it? How much does it cost? How long will it take us to complete it? How reliable will it be? How can we recycle it How can we make it? Is this like something else that we’ve done? Yes; What methods were used? No; Design a new process What methods were used? Machining methods Pressworking Welding/fabrication Casting Powder materials Layered deposition Others Welding/fabrication:Additive techniques Machining Methods:Subtractiv
