Learning outcomes

After a successfully completed course the student should be able to:

  • read and interpret drawings according to swedish standard,
  • create complete detail- and assembly drawings according to swedish standard,
  • plan dimensioning for function requirements and manufacturing requirements of a product,
  • set tolerances on drawings according to swedish standard,
  • use a methodology that results in stable and easy-to-edit models to create 3D-solids and assemblies,
  • create assemblies with moving parts,
  • combine knowledge in drafting and CAD to create a complete basis for manufacturing of a simple product, containing parts, assemblies and detail- and assembly drawings.
