60801 - Design and testing of machines and Integrated manufacturing systems
110 - Escuela de Ingeniería y Arquitectura
Compulsory
1. General information
The objective of the subject is to learn aspects related to machines and integrated manufacturing systems involved in the production of mechanical components. That is, the design and development of mechanical systems according to design specifications and within the requirements of quality, costs and delivery times, as well as the equipment (systems) to carry out manufacturing processes according to different levels of automation. and flexibility.
The subject is mandatory and addresses the basic principles of design and testing of machines and integrated manufacturing systems. On the other hand, the degree presents several Optional Training modules that provide continuity to this subject. It has no prerequisites in the master's degree. Only for students who must take the following as homogenization subjects, these should be passed beforehand: "Manufacturing technologies" and "Machine design criteria".
2. Learning results
