Definition:
Production Technology for manufacturing

◼ The complete domain of production processes,


production equipment (machines and tools),
methods, knowledge and skills, with which the
goal - the manufacturing of parts and products
against a required quality, calculated costs and
acceptable delivery time - can be achieved.
Manufacturing Engineering
◼ Research on the background of Production
Technology :
“Thinking about what you’re going make”

Technical knowledge makes


it possible to produce, on a predictable way
products, that have desired features.
Why these lectures?

◼ There are over 2500 types of steel


 With which almost anything can be done: casting,
forming, cutting, machining, welding, etc.
◼ It’s important that you know a selection of the
production processes, so you:
 know what the possibilities and limitations are of
several production processes and methods.
 can discuss with engineers during design and
production stages
 can put the separate production processes in a
comprehensive view
Origin of this subject
◼ Rise of industry, about 200 years ago:

 Vast quantities of energy came available (through the


invention of the steam engine)

 Possibility to produce more than needed for own


usage. A surplus was available for trading.

 Transition from home-work to factory work

 Large scale transport came available


(steam railways and steam ships)

only how and why life altering inventions got off the
ground in the first place, but also how they created

Organization and communication

◼ Specialization of production processes


 From an one man workshop, to a large factory with
lots of labors, each specializing in a particular field.
Organization and communication

 Specializationof production processes makes


mass production possible
 Several departments e.g.:
 Design and development
 Drawing office
 Purchasing department
 Quality control
 Foundry shop
 Machine shop
 Assembly
 Testing department,
 Logistics
Organization en communication

◼ Communication between departments


 Between departments in a factory
 Even communication in a department

Siemens Werke 1870’s


Communication
In case of poor communication, the connection between production design / planning
and the production floor / parts manufacturing / process optimization / economic
substantiation is missing
For good communication, technical knowledge is necessary!
When all parts come together

Assembly
What goes wrong with bad communication?

Same design
