## GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY ## Program Name: Diploma Engineering Level: Diploma Branch: Mechanical Engineering / Mechanical Engineering(CAD/CAM) / Mechatronics Engineering Subject Code: DI05000301 Subject Name: Advance Manufacturing System w.e.f. Academic Year: 2026-27 Semester: 5 th Category of the Course: PEC-03 ## Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of manufacturing processes and material behaviour from subjects like Manufacturing Engineering-I and II. Fundamental understanding of computer operations and usage of graphical software environments. Exposure to basic mechanical design concepts and machine elements. Rationale: Manufacturing processes converts raw material to finished product for customer usage. Now a day's customer is the king in the market and needs and desires of customer has increased the varieties and features in products. This has increased the complexities at almost all the stages of manufacturing. In modern manufacturing system it is very important to listen voice of customer and deploy his needs in entire manufacturing system. In modern era of the liberalized economy, we are facing world class competition in our own country. Global industries in the form of advanced manufacturing systems, is compelling Indian industries to reorganize their manufacturing strategies for competing on the dimensions of cost, quality, flexibility and deliverability. Hence it is important for us to understand the various modernmanufacturing systems available today. Recent advance manufacturing system / techniques / electronics devices provide precision machine control compare to conventional machines. With higher accuracy quality and productivity. Objective of leaning this subject is to make aware the students about the advance manufacturing practices/systems being implemented at leading industries across the globe, which ultimately leads to more customer satisfaction in terms of low cost and high quality. ## After Completion of the Course, Student will able to: | No | Course Outcomes | |------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | 01 | Identify role of computers and information technology in manufacturing systems with concept of technological life cycle and product life cycles. | | 02 | Develop an FMS (Flexible Manufacturing System) layout for given simple part family, using group technology concepts to and make proper grouping as per their attributes. | | 03 | Recognize use of Automation and control technology in industries. | | 04 | Discuss use of robotics Industrial automation, programmable logic controllers in modern manufacturing system and Industry 4.0. | | 05 | Apprehend and describe application of recent trends in modern manufacturing system. | ## GUJARAT TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY Program Name: Diploma Engineering Level: Diploma Branch: Mechanical Engineering / Mechanical Engineering(CAD/CAM) / Mechatronics Engineering Subject Code: DI05000301 Subject Name: Advance Manufacturing System ## Teaching and Examination Scheme: | Teaching Scheme (in Hours) | Teaching Scheme (in Hours) | Teaching Scheme (in Hours) | Total Credits L+T+ (PR/2) | Total Credits L+T+ (PR/2) | Assessment Pattern and Marks | Assessment Pattern and Marks | Assessment Pattern and Marks | | |-------------------------------|-------------------------------|-------------------------------|------------------------------|------------------------------|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|--------------------------------|-------| | L | T | PR | C | Theory | Theory | Tutorial / Practical | Tutorial / Practical | Total | | | | | | ESE (E) | PA(M) | PA(I) | ESE (V) | Marks | | 3 | 0 | 2 | 4 | 70 | 30 | 20 | 30 | 150 | ## Course Content: | Unit No. | Content | No. of Hours | % of Weightage | |-------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|-------------------| | 1 | Introduction to Advance Manufacturing System. 1.1 Manufacturing system definition & Features of Manufacturing system. 1.2 Components and types of manufacturing system. 1.3 Role of computers and information technology in manufacturing and manufacturing systems. 1.4 Product life cycle its importance &Technology life cycle. 1.5 Scope, trends and challenges in Indian and global market. | 03 | 08 | | 2 | Group Technology (GT) & Cellular Layout. 2.1 GT - concept, definition, need, scope, & benefits. 2.2 Production layout-types, features and applications. 2.3 GT Layout -concept, need, benefits, comparison with conventional layout with examples. 2.4 GT- codification systems- types, method of coding and examples. 2.5 Part features- concept, types and examples. 2.6 Part family- concept, method to form and approach to form cell using part families. 2.7 Types and comparison of cell: manual and automatic cell, assembly cell. 2.8 Cell layout. | 07 | 17 | | 3 | Flexible Manufacturing Cell and System. 3.1 Flexible Manufacturing Cell (FMC) System (FMS) a -concept, definition and comparison with other manufacturing systems. 3.2 Major elements of FMC/FMS and their functioning: i.
