Manufacturing – DefiniYon
Process of conver\ng or processing raw materials into usable products. From the La\n: manufactus manus = hands factus = made “A series of interrelated ac@vi@es and opera@ons involving design, materials selec@on, planning, produc@on, quality assurance, management, and marke@ng of discrete consumer and durable goods” (CAM-‐I) Manufacturing is one way by which na\ons create material wealth.

In 2012, manufacturers contributed to 11.9 percent of GDP. For every $1.00 spent in manufacturing, another $1.48 is added to the economy, the highest mul\plier effect of any economic sector. Manufacturing supports an es\mated 17.2 million jobs in the U.S.—about one in six private-‐sector jobs. Manufacturers in the U.S. perform two-‐thirds of all private-‐sector R&D in the na\on, driving more innova\on than any other sector. Taken from the Na\onal Associa\on of Manufacturers

Product Variety (P) It refers to the produc\on of different models or product type P is less exact than Q because it depends on how much the design changes. Small changes in design (Sou Product Variety) or large differences in design ( Hard Product Variety).
Manufacturing Work Flow -‐ Custom: Limited number of products built to customer specifica\ons. -‐ Intermi^ent/Batch: from 10 to 1000 units, uses general purpose machinery. -‐ Con\nuous: Same product made repeatedly by dedicated machinery (custom built machine – NOT CUSTOM built product). Automa\on becomes more cost-‐effec\ve
Primary and Secondary Manufacturing Primary processes convert minerals or raw materials into standard stock
• bauxite ore à aluminum • petroleum à polyester resin • wood à lumber
Secondary processes convert standard stock into usable parts • aluminum rod à fuel valve • polyester resin à medical tubing • lumber à furniture
Secondary Manufacturing Processes
• Cas\ng and Molding: processes hold liquid or semi-‐liquid materials in a mold cavity un\l the material hardens
• Forming: use a shaping device and pressure to cause a material to take on a new shape and size
• Separa\ng / Material Removal: processes remove material to produce a desired shape and surface finish
• Condi\oning: it uses heat, chemical reac\ons, or mechanical means to change the proper\es of a material
• Assembling / Joining: join two or more parts or assemblies through mechanical, thermal, or chemical means
• Finishing: modify the surface of a material to improve appearance or performance

Example of Primary Manufacturing: Steel
To make steel, you start with iron ore, a rock that contains a high concentra\on of iron. Common iron ores include:
HemaYte -‐ Fe2O3 -‐ 70 % iron MagneYte -‐ Fe3O4 -‐ 72 % iron Limonite -‐ Fe2O3 + H2O -‐ 50 to 66 % iron Siderite -‐ FeCO3 -‐ 48 % iron
Iron is plen\ful -‐-‐ 5 percent of the Earth's crust is iron, and in some areas it concentrates in ores that contain as much as 70 % iron.
A blast furnace is charged (from the top) with iron ore, coke (charcoal made from coal) and limestone (CaCO3).
Huge quan\\es of air blast in at the bo^om of the furnace.
The calcium in the limestone combines with the silicates to form slag.
At the bo^om of the blast furnace, liquid iron (pig iron) collects along with a layer of slag on top.
To create 1 ton of pig iron, you start with 2 tons of ore, 1 ton of coke and half-‐ton of limestone. The fire consumes 5 tons of air. The temperature reaches almost 3000 degrees F (about 1600 degrees C) at the core of the blast furnace!
COKE: Metallurgical grade coal is converted to coke by a coking process that drives off impuri\es to leave almost pure carbon. The coking process consists of hea\ng coking coal (1000-‐1100ºC) in the absence of oxygen to drive off the vola\le compounds (pyrolysis). This process results in a hard porous material -‐ coke. The coking process is \me consuming, between 12-‐36 hours in the coke ovens.
The most commonly applied process for conver\ng pig iron into steel is the Basic Oxygen Furnace. In the BOF, the liquid pig iron + steel scrap (less than 30%) and flux are combined and a lance is introduced in the vessel that blows 99% pure oxygen, that causes the temperature to rise to 1700°C. The scrap melts, impuri\es are oxidized, and the carbon content is reduced by 90%, resul\ng in liquid steel. Other processes can follow – secondary steel-‐making processes – where the proper\es of steel are determined by the addi\on of other elements, such as boron, chromium and molybdenum, amongst others, ensuring the exact specifica\on can be met. BOFs produce about 70% of the world’s steel. A further 29% of steel is produced in Electric Arc Furnaces.

The world of materials
Metals: Materials that are inorganic substances which are composed normally of combina\ons of "metallic elements“ and may also contain some non metallic elements (alloys). Examples of metallic elements are iron, copper, aluminum, nickel, \tanium. Non metallic elements such as carbon, nitrogen and oxygen may also be contained in metallic materials. These elements, when combined, usually have electrons that are non localized and as a consequence have generic types of proper\es. Metals usually are good conductors of heat and electricity. Metals have a crystalline structure in which the atoms are arranged in an orderly manner. Also, they are quite strong but malleable and tend to have a lustrous look when polished. Metals and alloys are commonly divided into two classes: ferrous metals and alloys and non ferrous metals and alloys that do not contain iron or only a rela\vely small amount of iron.
9000 - 3500BC Use of native (pure) copper (Copper Age)
3500 - 1500BC Tin added to copper forms bronze, a stronger alloy (Bronze Age)
1500BC - 100AD Iron smelting in Egypt, begins the Iron Age.
500 - 1600AD High quality iron and steel processing, (Feudal Era)
1750 – 1850 Commercial production of high quality steels.
1850 – 1900 Hall’s ore reducing process produces cheap aluminum in large quantities.
1900 - 1935 Aircraft moves from fabric to high strength aluminum alloy.
1935 - 1955 Specialty alloys produce turbines for more efficient power production.
1955 – 1970 Human body parts.
1970 – 1995 Superalloys developed for jet-engines
Metals Historical Timeline
Ceramics: Ceramics are generally compounds between metallic and nonmetallic elements chemically bonded together and include such compounds as oxides, nitrides, and carbides. Ceramic materials can be crystalline, non-‐crystalline, or mixtures of both. Typically they have high hardness and high-‐temperature strength but they tend to have mechanical bri^leness. They are usually insula\ng and resistant to high temperatures and harsh environments. Ceramics can be divided into two classes: tradi\onal and advanced. Tradi\onal ceramics include clay products, silicate glass and cement; while advanced ceramics consist of carbides (SiC), pure oxides (Al2O3), nitrides (Si3N4), non-‐silicate glasses and many others.

PlasYcs: Plas\cs or polymers are substances containing a large number of structural units joined by the same type of linkage. These substances ouen form into a chain-‐like structure and are made of organic compounds based upon carbon and hydrogen. Usually they are low density and are not stable at high temperatures. Polymers in the natural world have been around since the beginning of \me. Starch, cellulose, and rubber all possess polymeric proper\es. Man-‐made polymers have been studied since 1832. Today, the polymer industry has grown to be larger than the aluminum, copper and steel industries combined. Polymers already have a range of applica\ons that far exceeds that of any other class of material available to man. Current applica\ons extend from adhesives, coa\ngs, foams, and packaging materials to tex\le and industrial fibers, composites, electronic devices, biomedical devices, op\cal devices, and precursors for many newly developed high-‐tech ceramics.

Semiconductors (Electronic Materials): Semiconductors are materials which have a conduc\vity between conductors (generally metals) and nonconductors or insulators (such as most ceramics). Semiconductors can be pure elements, such as silicon or germanium, or compounds such as gallium arsenide or cadmium selenide. In a process called doping, small amounts of impuri\es are added to pure semiconductors causing large changes in the conduc\vity of the material. Due to their role in the fabrica\on of electronic devices, semiconductors are an important part of our lives. Imagine life without electronic devices. The developments in semiconductor technology during the past 50 years have made electronic devices smaller, faster, and more reliable.

Composites: Composites consist of a mixture of two or more materials. Most composite materials consist of a selected filler or reinforcing material and a compa\ble resin binder to obtain the specific characteris\cs and proper\es desired. Usually, the components do not dissolve in each other and can be physically iden\fied by an interface between the components. Fiberglass, a combina\on of glass and a polymer, is an example. Concrete and plywood are other familiar composites. Many new combina\ons include ceramic fibers in metal or polymer matrix.
Biomaterials Biomaterials are used in components implanted into the human body for replacement of diseased or damaged body parts. For Example: Hip replacement designs.
