Syllabus

Course Objectives

The course aims to provide students with an in-depth knowledge of the design issues of production systems. In particular, the course aims to provide students with main knowledge concerning - the technical organisation of industrial plant systems, - the performance indicators characterising them, - the technical-economic feasibility study, - the principles of detailed design and dimensioning, - the digital technologies supporting the design and management of production systems.


Course Prerequisites

The course does not provide special prerequisites, except those of normal understanding of basic scientific and engineering subjects

Teaching Methods

The course of Design of Production Systems is structured into theoretical lectures (for a total of 24 hours) and an industrial case study solution (for a total of 24 hours). Students will have the opportunity to apply directly on the case study all the method and the theoretical tools they acquire in the theoretical part.

Organized guided tours to local manufacturing companies and invited speeches from industrial practitioners are also planned.


Assessment Methods

The examination consists of a written exam. The written test is structured in theoretical questions and practical exercises concerning the entire program in order to verify the acquisition by the students of the concepts imparted within the teaching.

Optionally, students can discuss in an oral exam the hometake assignment on the industrial case developed during the course. The oral exam allows to increase the grade obtained in the written test by a maximum of 3 points.


Contents

The main topics that constitute the course are as follows:

-Historical evolution of production systems management criteria and evolution of the industrial systems design process

-Review of the performance of production systems

-Feasibility study, choice of location of an industrial plant and demand forecasting

-Typologies of process production systems: plant and management characteristics and detailed design

-Typologies of manufacturing production systems (manufacturing and assembly): plant characteristics and management

-Design of manufacturing systems (job-shops, cells, lines)

-Design of manual assembly systems (fixed-place assembly, manual assembly lines, assembly shops)

-Discrete event simulation (logic and computer models using Flexsim software)
