    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
