Course Objective

This course will focus on various automation technologies applied in discrete-parts manufacturing. Besides lectures, there will be problem solving sessions illustrating how these automation technologies help to improve the productivity of manufacturing systems. The topics covered in class will consist of automated flow lines, automated assembly, automated material handling, group technology and flexible manufacturing systems.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1	Learn about automation and production systems technology in modern manufacturing.
2	Distinguish between different automation strategies and economically evaluate them.
3	Analyze and design automated production flow lines, materials handling systems, and automated assembly systems.
4	Gain insight to various analytical approaches used for performance evaluation of automated manufacturing systems.
5	Apply group technology concepts for the analysis and design of flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs)
