Course objectives:

Introduction, examination and application of procedures and models for integrated design and optimisation of manufacturing systems with the product life cycle.

Student responsibilities:

Grading and evaluation of student work over the course of instruction and at a final exam:

Performed on the basis of: - three periodic written examinations, 50 %; - the project, 40 %; - monitoring the presence and commitment of students, 10 %. In the event that a student does not pass all periodic written examinations, but neatly fulfills other obligations, the student may access written and oral exam.

Methods of monitoring quality that ensure acquisition of exit competences:

Coverage of quality: - immediately in the classroom, in direct communication with the students (student questions and discussion); - periodically, according to the processed education content, by grading of written examinations and project; - exposition/discussing of results (scores) - instructing students how to achieve better results.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to (learning outcomes):

After a successful completion of the course, for a production programme, a student will be able to: - recommend the structure of the production system; - determine the required number of machines and other equipment, departments and the number of labour force; - determine the required area for the production system; - predict the arrangement of system elements (machinery and working places); - determine the macro and microlocation of the system - design detailed layout within the selected microlocation; - calculate the cost-effectiveness of the designed production system; - design the production system model in CAD.
