Creating an assembling machine

Examines the benefits of following an implementation plan when designing and building an assembly machine in‐house, to control the progress of a project. Uses the example of a real life project undertaken at Brunel University [to design and build a chain assembling machine]describing the various steps followed during the design and building process through to testing and control systems. Concludes that although an implementation plan often requires some thought and effort at the beginning of a project it proves worthwhile by the end.
