Objective of the course
The course aims at establishing understanding of the basic knowledge about principles of computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) systems. The course offers an introduction at intermediate level as well as practical abilities in the application of components and interdisciplinary relations that emerge when modern information and communication technologies (ICT) are utilised for the further industrialisation supported by computer-aided engineering tools particularly towards manufacturing of products in goods industries.
Knowledge and understanding:
- Acquire fundamental understanding of the principles of CAD/CAM, including engineering drawing, geometric and surface modelling and feature based design
- Use engineering mathematics related to geometry to understand CAD/CAM concepts.
- Apply computer aided manufacturing principles to perform computer aided numerical control programming
- Apply CAD/CAM concepts to product design and manufacturing
- Use CAD/CAM software to realize product design.
Skills:
- Distinguish the product specification methods
- Draw engineering design and orthographic projections
- Construct 2D and 3D part CAD models
- Distinguish different computer aided design modelling methods
- Construct process plans for 3D geometric parts
- Recall the need of design and manufacturing integration.
Competence:
- Passing the course will provide students with basic competence for computer aided design and manufacturing.

Assessment
Coursework / Course requirements
An assignment exercise regarding design of a small-scale geometric model. The mandatory exercises have to be handed in and approved by the teacher.
Examination and assessment
3 hour written exam account for 100% of the grade in the course.
The course is evaluated through ECTC system (A-F), where F is a fail.
For students failed in the written exam, a re-sit written exam will be arranged for this course.
