Mechanical Design and Manufacturing

Mechanical Design is one of the important branches of Engineering Design. To understand what exactly mechanical design is let us considering an example of gear box of a car. The gear box transmits the motion and the power of the engine to the wheels of the vehicle. The gearbox comprises group of gears which are subjected to not only motion but also the load of the vehicle. For the gears to keep running at wanted speeds and take wanted burdens it is essential that they ought to be outlined. Amid planning different estimations are performed considering wanted speeds and stacks lastly the gears of specific material and particular measurements that can take all heaps and that can be made in any event conceivable cost giving ideal execution is composed. In similar fashion all the components of the car, including engine, have to be designed so that they optimally meet all the functional requirements at lowest possible cost. This whole process of designing is called as mechanical design.
