2012 Senior Joe Cuniberti hard at work building his "King of the Hill" Vehicle
In this third year course, students take an advanced look at the engineering design profession. This is accomplished by applying professional Design concepts, engineering problem solving, and visual graphic techniques while maintaining professional ethics, and responsibility. Students will be introduced to design theory of basic machine elements through the introduction of dies, jigs and other industrial applications. Students will accomplish typical industry design practices including the preparation of complete production tool designs using the CAD system. The theory of detail design procedures will be the focus by means of the latest design methods, technical skills, industrial applications, and practices of mechanical assembly. Topical areas may include: bill of materials, subassemblies, standard parts, fasteners, dimensioning, visualization and advanced 3-dimensional CAD techniques. Students will incorporate rapid prototyping technology for model design, analysis and verification of a fully defined new part. The building of simple projects will be included in the course experience while maintaining personal safety in the fabrication lab.
This course has been approved to meet the MMC senior year math-related credit requirement.
