freehand tab was used to jog the robot joints. The import library was used toimport a tool to attach to the robot. A table was imported for the tool to operate on. Targets wereset on the four corners of the table. A path was created between the four corners and. A path can betaught instructions by manually jogging joints. When the path between the four corners wasdefined, the robot was made to move along the path. This was simulated at different speeds of 200,400, 600, 800, and 1000 mm/s and the cycle time to go along the path was recorded. The cycle timedecreased as speed increased. This decrease was the steepest from 200 to 400 mm/s and keptgetting less and less steep.The experiment demonstrated how RobotStudio can be used to mimic the function

suitable measuring procedure given available devices and fixtures; they thenproceed with measurement basic GD&T features on provided samples (Figs. 2a-e). Each group isfree to choose combination of contact-type metrology device, tool, and fixture for their group.During this stage, the TA only helps to clarify the part requirement and usage of metrologydevice without showing the solutions. After 30-45 minutes, each team takes turn presenting to their classmates how they set upand measure a feature, showing the measured data, and concluding if the part is accepted orrejected. The TA then comments on the approach, selection of tooling and fixture, and maysuggests alternative ways to constrain datum(s). Common mistakes are observed when
(Automotive, aerospace, apparel, electronics, etc.), products and businesses. Students will beinvestigating and identifying what new business ideas these challenges will be (or currently) generating.Students were asked to identify sustainable practices and processes during their VSM mapping. At theend of the term, there was a team competition based on the deliverables of the project. In the competition,students presented their cartoon(s) and VSMs that helps to illustrate some of the challenges SC designersand users face. Student teams will also suggest up to three possible captions in to accompany eachcartoon. Sample student submitted VSM charts and Cartoons can be find in Appendix B.Project DescriptionA process map documents how work either is, or

planning and product design.Based on this review, we developed our survey as follows: • The existing surveys primarily targeted CXOs. Our survey targeted plant technical managers. As the focus of our project is on Industry 4.0 tools and technologies, we anticipate that we can learn more about what is happening on the plant floor if we gather data where “the rubber meets the road.” • In surveying managers about the technologies they are using, we followed Frank et al’s conceptual framework, which provides a useful taxonomy of Industry 4.0 technologies. However, Frank et al.’s sample consisted of Brazilian companies in construction and machinery which may be more traditional and less high-tech than U.S
to an activity’s specific requirements). ● Updating the learning journal(s) (In many cases a simple proof of completion is enough. However, the instructor may grade some specific entries more closely, especially those explicitly requested by the instructor) ● Showing improvements in demonstrating and using certain skills. ● Teachers may also create and use additional tools as they see fit.Outcomes Assessment: Teachers need to evaluate the soft skills modules they use and assess theoutcomes achieved by introducing the modules in their classrooms. Some criteria to considerinclude: ● Success of delivery ● Students’ engagement ● Students’ grades (average scores, min, max, etc.) ● Solicited students’ feedback (polls

Ships are the largest, most expensive and arguably most complex of the three types ofmilitary vehicles. Shipbuilders include both public (government owned) and private shipyards.The U. S. private shipbuilding and repairing industry is comprised of establishments that areprimarily engaged in operating shipyards, which are fixed facilities with drydocks and fabricationequipment. Activities in the shipyards include ship construction, repair, and
relating the material to real-world use. Also, I would like to highlight TA (because I don't see a specific spot for him) because he has been an incredibly valuable resource for the lab portion of this class. He has been the most attentive and helpful TA I have ever had. He will always help you understand the material and has done a great job supporting the students.In addition, Students suggested to improve the course. The suggestion request sentence was“Make a suggestion(s) for improving the course.” All the responses were as follows. o The lab sessions can be extended. I really liked the content and the material during lab sessions. The only improvement could be having more time to practice with more lab sessions
