Design of Machine Components

Summary

Do you want to understand how key machine components and mechanisms work? This course will enable you to develop and apply knowledge of mechanics and manufacturing technologies in the design and dimensioning of machine elements. You will learn to size various types of fastening components (bolts, rivets, welds, adhesive joints, etc.) and design power transmission components such as gears, belt and chain drives, and rolling bearings. We will focus on the practical application of theory, ensuring that you can design safe and reliable constructions in the real world.
