Training students to design manufacturable products, simulate and optimize plastic forming processes and related tools, as well as perform their control. Training students to plan and optimize manufacturing and assembly process planning for plastic forming tools, as well as model and simulate manufacturing and production processes in plastic processing industry.

After successfully completing this course, a student is able to: Describe and define basic tasks of logistics and simulation in manufacturing of plastic products and related tools; Analyze, evaluate and improve manufacturability of plastic product design and related tools; Simulate and optimize plastic forming processes and related tools using CAx systems as well as their control; Generate manufacturing process plans for plastic forming tools and identify basic elements for developing knowledge base for their automation; Define basic elements of a production system (production program, production resources, types of manufacturing flows, production resources and their norms), perform resource allocation and design manufacturing plant.

Objectives, relevance and content of course. Basic tasks of logistics and simulation in plastic processing technologies. Models of technological preparation and integrated concepts of design and manufacturing of plastic products. Design for manufacturing and assembly – DfMA. Methods and software systems for applying DfMA methodology. Selection of raw materials and manufacturing technology. Manufacturing cost estimation. Tools as products of high accuracy. Tool standardization and tipization. Simulation and optimization of plastic forming processes and related tools. Manufacturability analysis for plastic forming processes. Development of CAD/CAE systems for designing tools for plastic forming. Control of plastic products and related tools. Manufacturing and assembly process planning for plastic forming tools. Development of integrated CAPP systems for plastic product and tool manufacturing. Development of the data and knowledge base for selecting elements of manufacturing processes and resources. Individual and group approach in design of manufacturing flows. Production planning and control. Modeling and simulation of production process and design of optimal spatial structure of production systems. Modern trends in development of logistics and simulation techniques in the field of plastic product and tool manufacturing.

Classes are held in the forms of lectures, laboratory and computer exercises. Theoretical part of the course with typical examples from practice is represented on the lectures. Laboratory exercises are intended for applying the acquired knowledge through specific examples and work on the available equipment. Students are trained to apply information and communication technologies from the course material on computer exercises. For the purpose of extending practical knowledge, company visits are organized. Consultations are held regularly in order to bring course material closer to the development and fulfillment of required tasks and papers.
