SECTION A: ORGANISATIONAL COMPONENT

1. Introduction

1.1 Welcome and brief description of the module The effective use of machine design is an essential tool to the solution of engineering problems.

In this module, the student is taught the skills to

Select (through “catalogue recipes” and / or calculations) and implement in a

mechanical design, appropriate bought-out items, such as (but not limited to) bolts and

nuts, power transmission elements and bearings.

Apply GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) to an existing - and a new

mechanical design

Know about and understand of the application of a broad range of manufacturing

processes

Students will also be introduced to a systematic design process to mechanical design as well as

the design approach to implement standard components as far as possible.

1.2 Using the study guide This study guide is a crucial part of the general study guide of the Department. In the study

guide of the Department , information is given on the mission and vision of the department,

general administration and regulations (professionalism and integrity, course related

information and formal communication, workshop use and safety, plagiarism, class

representative duties, sick test and sick exam guidelines, vacation work, appeal process and

adjustment of marks, university regulations, frequently asked questions), ECSA outcomes and

ECSA exit level outcomes, ECSA knowledge areas, CDIO, new curriculum and assessment of

cognitive levels. It is expected that you are very familiar with the content of the Departmental

Study Guide. It is available in English and Afrikaans on the Department's website.

1.3 Educational approach The educational approach that will be followed consists of three segments:

1 three main study themes that will be presented once per week for the duration of the

semester,

2 a weekly practicaI session that will be presented for the duration of the semester,

3 a group assignment

ClickUp announcements will be made regarding the details of the above three segments

5. Rules, requirements and guidelines General Departmental Rules & Requirements

See the general study guide of the Department in Section 1.2

In addition to the above, the following will apply for this module:

Class Rule:

You are expected to participate in discussions during lectures. As your fellow students are

dependent on the inputs you make, your participation is crucial. After all, you are also

dependent on their contribution.

Although you are expected to participate in discussions during lectures, you may not disrupt

the class in any way. This curtesy rule is to give your fellow students the opportunity to pay

attention to what is being discussed.

Group Assignment:

The group assignment will be done in groups of 6. Group members will be randomly

assigned via clickUP. See “Group Assignment” on clickUP for further details

Exam Entrance:

See the examination regulations in the Year Books of the Faculty of Engineering, Built

Environment and Information Technology (Part 1: Engineering, or Part 2: Built Environment

and Information Technology).

Pass requirement:

In order to pass the module a student must obtain a final mark of at least 50%.

SECTION B: STUDY COMPONENT

8. Purpose of the module The general objective with this module is to, in the field of machine design, emphasise

understanding rather than memorising. In Graphical Communication (MGC110) students get

exposed to mechanical engineering drawings and sketches. Different manufacturing

methodologies are also studied as part of the Graphical Communication module.

Manufacturing and Design (MOW217) builds on this basic knowledge by exposing students to

Selection (through calculation / catalogue process) of a wide range of mechanical bought-

out items. Where applicable, implementation of these bought-out items will also be

addressed.

An in-depth study of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), and

A South African perspective of selected manufacturing processes
