Learning Outcomes

This course unit has the following main objectives:
(A) Integrate the multidisciplinary knowledge that aim the planning process;
(B) To understand the process planning system and its definition forms;
(C) To be able to perform the correct raise of the processes of a medium complexity product;
(D) To know select and sequence the production processes considering the minimization of defects and optimizing the production cost;
(E) To know informatics tools in order to help the process planning;
(F) To specify the extensive process trough the inclusion of the control, movements and store activities;
(G) To analyse the process performance;
(H) To preview and quantify the time of the processes activities.
