Abstract

Manufacturing is a key economic activity. Its know-how and its competitive advantages have shaped the history of humankind. In many Industrial Engineering (IE) programs, however, manufacturing is not taught as related to process know-how, but as systemic integration and management. It is possible to capitalize on the recent 3D printing technologies to reintroduce IE students to manufacturing principles through prototyping projects. Sparking the interest of IE students, though, can also be achieved through selecting problems of environmental awareness. This work describes a project of self-assemblies developed under the scheme of undergraduate research that makes prototyping a central endeavor with the aim to foster plastic recycling as an end goal.

通过环境针对性重新向工业工程专业学生介绍制造业

制造业是一个关键的经济活动。它的技术和竞争优势塑造了人类的历史。然而，在许多工业工程(IE)课程中，制造不是作为与工艺技术相关的知识来教授的，而是作为系统集成和管理来教授的。有可能利用最近的3D打印技术，通过原型项目重新向IE学生介绍制造原理。然而，激发IE学生的兴趣也可以通过选择环境意识问题来实现。这项工作描述了一个在本科研究计划下开发的自组装项目，该项目使原型设计成为一项核心努力，旨在促进塑料回收作为最终目标。
