Mechanical manufacturing is important inmanufacturing industry. Especially in recent years, with the rapid growth ofadvanced manufacturing industry, it become harder and harder for thetraditional single manufacturing process to meet the requirement on themanufacturing accuracy and efficiency. Under this situation, hybrid manufacturingprocesses which combine two or more different manufacturing processes have beenrapidly developed towards the level elevation of manufacturing technologies.The aim of this course is to enable students to master the principles andapplications of typical hybrid manufacturing processes, and to understand thelatest developments in related technical fields. This course combines theclass-teaching with the discussion and technical tours. Students will learn therelated theories, the ability to summarize and present relevant knowledge, andthe skills to find out and solve problems. Through this course, students willhave the potentiality which is important for them to perform well as anexcellent scientist or engineer in advanced manufacturing industry.
