The CNC Tabletop Lathe inthe Automation Lab was a sophisticated machine tool when it was first purchased. However, it wasrendered inoperable in 1992, when the X and Z axes failed. Since then, the lathe has been set aside andvirtually overlooked in order to make room for newer, more advanced machines. Later, it was dismantled,and parts were scattered throughout different labs in the engineering building. Little attempt to repair

This required some level of familiarity withthe topic. The class was composed of both engineering technology graduate students andgraduate students from the College of Business. While both groups knew that concrete iscomposed of cement, sand, gravel, and water, they all had to research factors which affect itsstrength. The design of a concrete mix depends upon many factors including; type andproportion of ingredients, additives to improve water-tightness or curing time, slump orworkability requirements, humidity and temperature, and geometry of the form.

careers as engineers in industry, it is important to immerse them in such an environ-ment early in their education. Design is a perfect setting to do so in that design is inherentlycollaborative; good designs are seldom achieved by an individual working alone. The collabora-tive nature of teamwork naturally enhances the students’ experience. They learn a great deal bysharing ideas and interacting with each other. Each member brings past knowledge and experi-ence to the project. They learn to divide responsibilities and capitalize on individual talents.Through the experience of working with others, students also improve their communicationskills. They quickly find that these skills are necessary for survival in a cooperative setting.At the

Two such exercises in the area ofmanufacturing education are the gearbox produced at Lafayette College [2], and another Stirling EngineProject at MIT [5]. Although similar to our own project, these institutions present manufacturingprocesses in slightly different ways. The most notable differences occur due to quarter vs. semestersystems.
