Description of the title
Specialization studies in Industrial Production based on the three basic pillars: Design, Finite Element Analysis and Manufacturing (including Additive Manufacturing). All this through computer applications and in a virtual environment where information can be shared between software resources and real machines in an efficient way.
Objectives of the degree

To train the student in the use of the main digital tools that assist the engineer during the performance of his work, without forgetting the technical knowledge that underlies them.

Develop their critical sense to make designs functional and economically manufacturable, through the use of recognized CAD applications.

Optimize the design and manufacture of components using CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) techniques, drawing conclusions and acting on the design/manufacture of the product after evaluation of the results obtained in the Finite Element based analysis.

Program in a graphical environment the Numerical Control Machine Tools used in production, learning to establish the correct configuration and link between the virtual and the real system.

To provide theoretical and practical knowledge about the different industrial processes of additive manufacturing and reverse engineering (using different 3D scanning techniques), studying their application in prototyping and digital manufacturing.

Analyze, design and calculate complex industrial facilities, mainly in the automotive field, focusing on solving problems related to automated transport and storage of products in multidisciplinary manufacturing environments.

To know the concepts and problems of robotics, its programming and application in industrial environments, reviewing advanced aspects such as visual control, mixed reality and machining using robots.

Design and implement sequential controllers, based on programmable logic controllers, for the execution of operations and control of the production system, contemplating important software tools such as Scada systems and Digital Twins.

To provide the student with the skills to combine engineering knowledge with integrated applications for product lifecycle management, allowing also to manage distributed projects, workflows, roles, tasks and shared repositories.

To analyze the systems, methodologies and strategies related to the “Industrialization and Improvement of the Productive Process”. All this with a practical and real approach, applied to industrial product manufacturing companies.

To learn to interpret and specify the dimensional and geometric tolerances required for a product, its formalization in drawings, the applicable regulations and procedures, as well as its verification through specific metrological equipment and Coordinate Measuring Machines programmed from virtual graphic environments.
