Elaboration de pièces techniques

This course aims to study the interactions between materials, shapes and processes in the design and industrialization of technical objects. Based on real cases studies, this teaching will address the following points:

• Knowledge of manufacturing processes for plastics and metallic materials,
• Choice of a material (functional criteria and implementation),
• Choice of a process (economic and technical criteria),
• Definition of a shape (functional criteria, process and material). We will focus more particularly on processes involving:
• material transformations of polymer materials: injection, extrusion, thermoforming ...
• plastic deformations of metal materials: stamping, stamping ...
• addition of material in 3D: additive manufacturing of metallic and polymer materials

I. Injection of plastics - Design and sizing, - Definition and choice of tools, - Simulation, implementation and configuration of the injection process.

II. Metal working process - Design of objects manufactured by stamping, - Definition and choice of tools, - Simulation, implementation and configuration of the stamping processes.
