The need for Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA) began shortly after the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, but it took a hundred years for it to ultimately come into focus in the 1960s, and it ...

Electronics design engineers spend substantial effort on schematics, simulation, and layout. Yet, a component’s long-term success also depends on how well its physical form aligns with downstream ...

Do you love the idea of exploring a potential product and helping plan how to build it using computer-aided design? Engineering design technologists do just that. When you enroll in WMU's program, you ...

With additive manufacturing, used to build this heat exchanger, one key is to do prototyping for the part and then see whether additive or subtractive manufacturing is the better choice of manufacture ...

Research in design and manufacturing includes machine design, traditional metal manufacturing processes (e.g., metal cutting and metal forming), additive manufacturing techniques (e.g., cold spray and ...

As complicated as the specialty manufacturing industry can be, it’s often governed by a set of relatively simple principles. One of those principles is, “the fewer moving parts involved, the better.” ...

The Design & Manufacturing (DM) emphasis in the Department of Mechanical Engineering allows students to develop abilities and skills in mechanical design and aspects of manufacturing in achieving ...
