Full-time cooperative education assignment for manufacturing engineering technology students who alternate periods of full-time school with periods of full-time academic or career-related work in industry. Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory.

Differentiation and integration of algebraic functions; applications to technology.

Study of particle and rigid body motion using principles of force-mass-acceleration, work-energy, and momentum.

Stresses, strains, shearing, bending moments, design of beams for strength and deflection. Combined stresses and strains, torsion, columns, and axial loaded members.

Introduction to Computer Aided Manufacturing & Automation including: single- and three-phase power systems and transformers, programmable logic controllers, sensors and transducers, DC and AC Motors and control. Overview of industrial robots, systems, concepts, end effectors, computer control, specifications, justifications, and programming. Lecture and Lab.

Precision measurement and its relationship to Geometric dimensioning and tolerances (GD&T) and calibrations. Conduct Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA) for appropriate process measures. Statistical process control and quality assurance using automated gauges. Use of machine vision, Coordinate Measurement Machine, Robotic measurement arm, non-contact measuring systems.

Analysis, design, and layout of manufacturing tooling, including jigs and fixtures, gauging devices, and dies. Analysis of tooling for varying production volume, lead time, process capability, and cost. Laboratory in tooling and layout simulation.

Application of engineering technology principles to solve a real-world problem. Student works as a member of team assigned to a problem in a manufacturing or processing organization. Requires a professional written and oral report. Cross-listed with IME 499
