Aim:
The course deals with assembly from both a technical and an organisational point of view, with emphasis on technical matters in the assembly operations. The goal is to give basic knowledge of production technology related to the assembly situation as well as knowledge about different means and methods used in assembly.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Basic courses in Production Engineering, Machine Elements, Electrical Engineering and Industrial Economics and Management.

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Organisation:
The course is given in a quarter period. Lectures are given on assembly process suboperations, including methods, tools and equipment. The lectures also cover different assembly systems. Classes are used for solving one assembly planning task and a Design for Assembly (DFA) task. The laboratory exercises are performed to give hands-on experience on basic assembly operations, robot assembly, etc.

Course contents:
The importance of economy and assembly technology in manufacturing. Prerequisit of production technology and economics for automatic as well as manual assembly. Design technical issues related to assembly. Equipment and techniques used for different part operations in assembly. Production philosophy and assembly systems. Industrial robot technology related to flexible automatic assembly.
