COURSE DESCRIPTION:
MFG-229 Materials Processing and Fabrication will include both an overview of materials and processes used
in the manufacture of precision products and a practical exploration of fabrication techniques used in industry.
A comparative study of casting, welding, heat treating, molding, laminating, EDM, CNC machining, grinding,
etc. will be undertaken, as well as forming processes such as rolling, shearing, stamping, cutting, and joining
methods for metallic and non-metallic materials.
2 lecture, 4 lab, 4 credits
Prerequisite: MFG-122 Machine Tool Principles I, MFG-124 Quality & Measurement,
DFT-107 Drafting I
STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
As a result of meeting the requirements in
this course, students will be able to:
Student performance on these objectives will be
measured by:
1. Select the most appropriate machining
process for various parts based on their
design material, geometric configuration,
dimensional tolerances and service
specifications.
Graded Exercises and Exams.
2. Demonstrate the ability to select the
appropriate materials and method of
fabrication for non-machined structures (e.g.
steel, aluminum, welded, bolted, etc.).
Graded hands-on lab work and Exams.
3. Demonstrate the ability to machine precisian
components to be incorporated into a larger
fabricated structure, using conventional
lathes, mills, grinders and precisian
measuring equipment.
Graded hands-on lab work.
4. Demonstrate the ability to construct non-
precisian structures to satisfactory level of
quality which meet design criteria.
Graded hands-on lab work.
