Aims

The course overall aim is to illustrate point of contact between design and manufacturing.

Throughout the course the student shall acquire:

  • deeper knowledge of using computer software for preproduction - manufacturing in modern production

  • skills in special CAM-software and NC-controlled tooling machines

  • knowledge of tool design

      • Content

      Computer aided preproduction with Pro Engineer (turning and milling). NC-technology on full scale tooling machines and usage of CAM software for controlling them. Tooling design.

      Instruction

      Lectures, practical exercises, project and laboratory work.

      Assessment

      Documented understanding and skills through approved practical assignments and project. Practical control tasks are given using a computer as a test.
