Course 11: Collaborative Manufacturing Systems (Syllabus)
Last Update: June 23, 2020
Course Objective:
Collaboration among partners to form a value network has become necessary as up-to-date information is so critical in a competitive market. Sharing of information among a network of physical units on the shop floor and connecting internal manufacturing processes and business processes with external business processes allow a company to offer a core competence with flexible, responsive operations meeting the expectations of customers and the value network partners. This course aims to build students’ competence in collaboration in manufacturing from the board picture of collaborative manufacturing management down to collaboration on a shop floor. The students will learn from concepts, applications, and hands-on experience.
Learning Outcomes: The students on the completion of this course would be able to:
-
- Recognize a potential collaborative manufacturing in a factory
- Identify a value network for collaborative manufacturing for a business
- Apply collaborative manufacturing management in practice
- Manipulate collaborative robots for collaborative tasks
- Manage manufacturing collaboration on a shop floor

Laboratory Sessions:
- Laboratory on plant simulation : Simulate a manufacturing process based on local industries, identify a value network for collaborative manufacturing and apply collaborative manufacturing management.
- Laboratory on collaborative machines: Manipulate collaborative machines e.g. communication between 3D-printing machine and CNC milling machine
- Laboratory on collaborative robots: Manipulate collaborative robots e.g. machine-robot communication, human-robot collaboration
- Laboratory on collaborative material handling system : Manipulate collaborative material handling system on a shop floor e.g. automatic guided vehicle (AGV) and Automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS)
Learning Resources:
Textbooks: No designated textbook, but class notes and handouts will be provided.

Teaching and Learning Methods:
Each major topic of this course is approached using a three steps process: lecture together with class discussion and in-class group assignments, including case studies and practical exercises that students will work on and present at the end of the sessions. The students are expected to involve actively in-class activities. The students will also apply knowledge learned from class in laboratory sessions, which have been designed to match the learning topics. Besides, there will be a group project for the students to practice their knowledge, critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making skills as well as team management.
Time Distribution and Study Load:
Lectures: 30 hours
Workshop: 45 hours
Self-study: 45 hours
Evaluation Scheme: The final grade will be computed according to the following weight distribution: Class discussion and participation 5%, Peer assessment in class activities 5%, Assignments 10% Practical exercises 20%, Presentation 10% and Group project 50%.
An “A” would be awarded if a student shows a deep understanding of the knowledge learned through assignments, project works, and exam results.
A “B” would be awarded if a student shows an overall understanding of all topics.
A “C” would be given if a student meets below average expectation in understanding and application of basic knowledge.
A “D” would be given if a student does not meet expectations in both understanding and application of the given knowledge.
