Throughout this project, you will walk through the engineering design process from start to finish ending with a completed prototype and a presentation that could be given to a company to sale your design.
In the second part of this unit you will be completing the production plan for your design.
As a team you should complete the steps below in your design notebook:
Your Challenge
Tooling
Copy the following chart in your notebook and list each type of tooling needed to produce your product.
Remember that tooling can increase your speed and accuracy of your production and final product.
Create drawings and write descriptions of any jigs and fixtures you need.
Part of Product
Material Tool Needed Tooling Needed
Quality Control
Establish guidelines for quality control. At what points of production will you do
a quality control check and what will the criteria being checked be?
Flow Process Chart
Show a the step-by-step process for producing a single part. Describes the task Provides a code number
for each task Identifies the machines
used Lists tooling needed for
the task Standard symbols are used
to identify each task that were developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Process Flow Chart Symbols
Operation
Object is changed in its chemical or physical makeup; it is assembled or disassembled
Transportation
Object has moved from one place to another
Inspection
Object is checked against quality standards
DelayObject is held for the next operation
Storage
Object is placed in a protected location
Operation Process Chart
An operation process chart shows how each part is made and then show the assembly of the product.
Transportation, delay, and storage tasks are not included in the chart.
The operations process chart is used in scheduling production. It shows what parts need to be finished at what time frame. This reduces the storage needed.
JIT- “Just is time” – parts arrive just in time for assembly. This helps reduce costs.
Example: Operation Process Chart
PLASTIC CLIP
1. Cut to width
2. Cut to length
3. Drill holes
4. Round corners
5. Assemble to clip
Create an operation process chart for each piece.
Process Layout – Facility Layout Groups machines by
the processes they perform.
Most common in custom manufacturing and intermittent manufacturing
A plant can produce a number of different products and machines can be used for a variety of tasks.

Receiving
Process Layout – Facility Layout Complete a facility layout plan for your
product. Keep in mind that your facility layout can
play a large role in the efficiency of your production.
PowerPoint Presentation
Combine all of your information into a PowerPoint presentation.
All sketches should be scanned and placed in the presentation.
Rubric
You will be presenting your information to the class before proceeding to part 2 of the overall project.
Classmates may make suggestions that should be documented and considered during the presentation.
