Automated and Semi-Automated Manufacturing ProcessesAbstractDuring the period of 1950-1990 productivity in United States industries increased 50 percent dueto technological innovation. High-value-added products were a consequence of more efficientmanufacturing processes and data processing equipment. It is predicted that in the next decadesproductivity increases will be largely due to the ability to add flexibility and improveinfrastructure through the collection and management of product data. By achieving the goalsset forth in this project, a valuable tool for educating future students will be added to ourprogram and we will also continue to improve our laboratory facilities for applied research,education and industrial partnerships.Microsoft

Ourgroup focuses on a class of millimeter-size mechanisms larger than micro-electro-mechanicalsystems (MEMS) but much smaller than ordinary mechanisms seen in our daily life. Seeing thetechnological trend of electro-mechanical products getting more and more minitualized, webelieve this class size of mechanisms has a wide range of future applications in manufacturing,bioengineering, the military, and many other areas. One of the difficult challenges to buildingthis class size of mechanism is a lack of actuator technologies for miniaturization. Today'scommonly used actuators for industrial automation, such as

Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA) suggest that many of the most serious machine related injuries could have beenprevented by proper guarding. Studies have found that degreed engineers, many of whom haveresponsibility for machine safety, are either uneducated or poorly educated on the subject ofmachine guarding and safety standards.A significant challenge to exploring machine guarding in the classroom is the inability to allowstudents to safely explore guarding problems in an independent and hands-on environment.First, Students are not necessarily qualified to operate such machines. Second, it is not advisableto create a laboratory environment in which students are allowed to operate and test machinesthat have been made deliberately
