Course

Production and Manufacturing Technology (MSK260)

The use of circular economy principles and sustainable development goals in combined additive and subtractive manufacturing applications, as well as in manufacturing logistics and supply chains. This includes engineering measurements, statistical process control, the need for risk-based thinking in quality management systems for ISO 9001 certification, and statistical quality control methods. The course also covers lean manufacturing and Six Sigma concepts, manufacturing assembly systems and lines, and robotics applications in manufacturing and fabrication systems.

Emneevaluering

There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital course evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
