Prerequisites for registration: none

Learning Outcome: The students have a detailed knowledge of the manufacturing processes that can be used for making mechatronic components. They are able to select suitable processes for specific tasks and to plan the manufacturing process for industrial production as well as to estimate the manufacturing cost. Students have practical skills in the field of mechatronics and are able to deal with and solve interdisciplinary tasks target-oriented by considering the sub-disciplines and their interactions. They are able to independently study the lab documents and to independently approach the tutorial with professional guidance. Students have an advanced knowledge of the structure of materials and of their mechanical characteristics. With regards to metallic materials, they are familiar with the micro-structures that are the result of alloys and warmth treatments and with their characteristics. Thanks to their deep understanding of the metallographic mechanisms regarding the mechanical characteristics like strength, deformability, creepage or fatigue, students are able to assess an individual load situation appropriately and to develop strategies for solving the problems. They also have an advanced knowledge of the different materials, from simple steel for construction or machine engineering, tool steel to synthetic materials and complex compound materials.
