Study Notes
Non-Mechanical Properties Influencing Manufacturing
- Material selection depends on properties that influence manufacturing, not just reaction to applied force
- Important non-mechanical properties include:
- Malleability: ability of a material to be shaped by compressive force without breaking
- Machinability: ease of cutting a material
- Sustainability: ability to use a material without depleting non-renewable resources
- Cost: direct and indirect expenses affecting manufacturing
Sustainability Considerations
- Can the material be made using renewable materials?
- How much energy is required to manufacture the product?
- Can product parts be reused?
- Can the material be recycled?
Cost Factors
- Direct elements of cost:
- Cost of materials used to make the product (including scrap/waste)
- Manufacturing cost:
- Labor cost (worker wages)
- Equipment cost (including shared costs among products)
- Malleability, machinability, and sustainability affect costs
