This is a follow-up course of the two product design courses (IND 3610, Product Design I, and IND 4710, Product Design II). It provides graduating students a hand-on opportunity to practice concurrent engineering design. It requires students to pull all the knowledge and skills they acquired in early courses and apply them towards the design and implementation of a product thus giving the students an opportunity to experience team-based design under conditions that closely resemble current industry practice. Students will also develop and sharpen skills in team organization, time management, self-discipline, and technical writing, in order to be successful in this course.

This course teaches techniques, equipment, and measurement procedures used by mechanical engineers. Students will perform test, collect data from data acquisition systems, and apply statistic analysis to experimental data. Common sensors such as temperature sensor, sonar sensor, IR sensor, strain gauge/load cell will be used.

Nakamura (Office: V532) Course Desription: Applications of CAD software in industrial plant design. Creation of 2D floor layouts with consideration given to production quantities; material flow; inventory control; personnel requirements; environmental conditions and restraints; heating and lighting; equipment specifications. Alternate equipment placement configurations are developed to meet changing production needs. The student utilizes CAD software to develop the concepts and completes the term project with a 2D plant layout and a 3D rendering of the required facility.
