Background

In order to set the scene for this assignment it may be useful to remind you of some definitions of the phrase ‘Design for Manufacture’:

‘Design for manufacture’ = how the design of a piece-part or product is influenced/affected/constrained/limited by the manufacturing and assembly production processes or the manufacturing system used. [Griffiths]

or:

‘Design for manufacture and assembly is attempting to foresee, at the product design stage, what the manufacturing problems will be and to quantify them so that they can be corrected on the drawing board, rather than later, during manufacture.’ [Boothroyd and Dewhurst]

The three-pin power Plug

Figure 1 below shows a standard UK three-pin power plug. Considering the function, what does matter is that the three pins must assemble easily into the base. Assume that the plastic base is injection moulded and the brass pins are machined. Note that both the pins and the base will have tolerances associated with them.

Figure 2 shows a schematic section of the plug base with a slot for one of the rectangular pins. The pin is inserted from above and protrudes below the bottom face ready for mating with the socket. The angular alignment of the pin is important to ensure easy and correct location into the socket. This angular alignment will be defined by a geometrical tolerance.

direction of pin insertion

Assignment:
Part A: Write an essay that includes:
a) Explanation on DFM including: (30)

 A section explaining why at the design stage of a product, the cost expenditure may only be 20%, yet the committed cost could be as high as 80%. You should include a diagram to explain this. Relate this to the comment “throw it over the wall to be made”.

 A section explaining the general principles of DfM.

 A section explaining the importance of Design for Manufacture (DfM).

b) A review of a statistical method that helps in process control and capability. (10)

c)A discussion on ‘confidence’ in measurement. (10)

The essay must be at least 1500 words long and must include diagrams, graphs or tables. The diagrams etc can be in addition to the words.

Part B

Define three types of surface finish standard and explain where each might be used.

Part C

A pulley is designed to fit on a 90mm diameter shaft with a medium drive fit.

After a design review it is decided that a more positive drive transfer mechanism is required and a rectangular key is added.

This results in a fit between the hole in the pulley and the shaft being changed to a close running fit.

a) Explain the changes in the tolerance of both shaft and hole, and give an
indication of what this means to the manufacture of the parts. (15)

b) Redraw figure 2 sketch of the plug (using either a CAD package or by hand) and add to this drawing the following information using the relevant ISO symbols:

 A geometrical tolerance box showing that the centre of the slot must be contained within a 50um diameter cylindrical tolerance zone which is perpendicular to the bottom face. This is a perpendicularity geometrical

tolerance. (10)

 A dimension showing that the slot width is nominally 4mm with an h8 tolerance. This tolerance is to be shown not by the designation ‘h8’ but in

actual upper and lower tolerance values. (5)

 A surface finish tick mark showing that the root-mean squared roughness of the inside of the slot is to be a 5um as produced by the moulding process with

no additional machining. (5)

This coursework is designed to assess learning outcome 2:
• Analyse the design, implementation and impact of high performance work organisations
Task
With reference to the performance appraisal practical you undertook during the course, critically evaluate the appraisal as a performance management tool. Provide recommendations on how you would integrate it into a high performance work system for the Cavendish Hotel.
You must illustrate your answer with examples from your own appraisal interview and those you observed during the practical, using these observations to illustrate examples of good and poor practice.

 
Please remember the following formatting and writing elements (getting them wrong WILL reduce your mark to a greater or lesser extent depending upon the amount of formatting or writing errors):
a) Musical compositions and album titles, like book and film titles go in Italics
b) The creator’s name and year of publication/release go in brackets after the first reference to a text
c) The full stop after a quote goes AFTER the reference (like this).
d) Do not start sentences with conjunctions (and, but, because, or or with). A conjunction is a joining word
which links different parts of a sentence unless for dramatic emphasis (which is why journalists do it all
the time).
e) 1.5 or Double space your essay when submitting it.
f) Remember to put page numbers.
g) DO NOT PUT YOUR NAME ON THE DOCUMENT, WE MARK ANONYMOUSLY.
h) The list of texts you have used is called a Bibliography (for printed material like books or chapters), a
Filmography (for films), a Videography (for TV or music videos), a Discography (for music) or a
Webography (for websites and material originally from the web).
i) References are NOT the list at the end but are the individual citations throughout your essay.
j) Proofread carefully – try reading things out loud to help (you’ll be surprised how efficient it is in helping
you spot areas of punctuation, spelling or grammatical concern).
k) Save your file so that when you upload the final version you are confident it is that version. For example,
Module Number-Student Number-DRAFT but then replace DRAFT with FINAL for the copy to submit. A lot of people accidently submit wrong versions for the lack of clear file names.

Example of preferred in-text referencing for interviews

Finding funding for the Brisbane Trumpet was difficult and Smith had to use crowd funding to try to attract additional funding (Smith, personal interview, 28 September 2015) [You don’t include interviews in your reference list].
Direct quote. “I had a devil of a time attracting any funding. I felt pressure to give up,” (Smith, personal interview, 28 September 2015)

For the Review of Literature section please use below (you can polish it up a little bit)
This paper discusses “Do the cultural backgrounds of Thai and Australian journalists affect their ethical beliefs and the way they report news?”
Journalists have the public responsibility of delivering news objectively, in that news should be unbiased, ensuring nothing influences the truthfulness of information delivered to the audience. Nonetheless, various factors can affect the way journalists deliver news. One of the factors can be found in the cultural background which can affect journalist’s views and ethical beliefs therefore affect the way in which news is delivered. Scholars agree that the existence of different cultures and customs can influence a journalist’s ethics and professionalism. According to Hirano (2010), religion influences the way journalists publish information relating to different religion than theirs. Politics influences media and the way information gets relayed through the kind of regulations they put in place (Lewis, 2011). In addition, Aloian (2013) states that the traditions of the journalist also influence their work and ethics.

I’m uploading additional files which will include interviews transcripts and some ideas I would like you to include in the paper (please use if you think they’re useful)
