Undergraduate Laboratory Improvement in Computer Integrated Manufacturing

这个实验室改进计划涉及工程学生，通过专门的实验实验室设施，从CAD到CAM阶段的计算机集成制造的全谱。计划中的设施将实现两个目标：引进关键的先进制造技术，研究基本的工程和科学概念并将其应用于实际的工程系统。实验室设施以全仪器计算机数控（CNC）加工中心为中心，支持四个相互交织的领域的实验，即(1)基本物理量的测量和分析，(2)制造过程、方法和设备，(3)制造系统中使用的伺服系统的分析和综合，以及(4)数控原理。计算机数控、计量学。预计该设施提供的能力将深刻影响新引进的制造业四门核心课程的教育质量。

This laboratory improvement program involves engineering students in the full spectrum of computer integrated manufacturing from the CAD to the CAM phase through a dedicated experimental laboratory facility. The planned facility would fulfill two objectives: introduction of key advanced manufacturing technologies, and investigation of fundamental engineering and scientific concepts and their application to a real engineering system. The laboratory facility centers around a fully-instrumented computer numerical control (CNC) machining center that supports experiments in four interwoven areas, namely, (1) measurement and analysis of basic physical quantities, (2) manufacturing processes, methods and equipment, (3) analysis and synthesis of servosystems used in manufacturing systems, and (4) principles of numerical control, computer numerical control, and metrology. It is anticipated that the capabilities offered by this facility would profoundly impact the quality of education in four core courses in the newly-introduced option in manufacturing.
