MANU-3010Composite Manufacturing Process Development
Companies that manufacture products using traditional methods and materials are finding opportunities to use composite materials in their product design and development process. In this post-graduate course, students will survey products suitable and unsuitable for composites. Students will explore the advantages and disadvantages of various composite materials, processes, and technologies and review regulatory requirements, specifications, and qualifications for composite products. After identifying feasible uses for composites in their workplace, students will design, prepare tooling, and lay up a prototype composite part. Recounting this hands-on experience, students will examine composite manufacturing process flow in order to reduce waste, save time, and optimize productivity.
