| Recommended semester: 6th or 7th semester |
| Scope and form: Lectures and excercises. |
| Evaluation: Approval of coursework/reports
|
| Examination: 13-scale |
| Previous course: 94340 |
| Prerequisites: Look under remarks. |
| No credit points with: 94340 |
| Participant limitation: Max. 26 |
Aim: The aim of the course is to enable the students to:
1) understand the possibility of using CAD in the different phases of the design process
2) understand the structure and the utility of different levels of CAD / CAM and CAE in the design environment (Concurrent Engineering)
4) analyse specific problems in CAD / CAM and CAD / CAM applications
5) obtain the basic knowledge of the use of at least one advanced CAD / CAM-system. |
Contents: Theory: CAD versus the classic design theory. Structure and utility of CAD / CAM-systems. Modeling, remedies for design, design variants, development of applications. Interface to FEM, CAM and numerical control, fields of development in CAD / CAM, Costumising 3D CAD-systems, Concurrent Engineering.
As a part of the course the students have to use advanced CAD / CAM-system (Pro / Engineer) in connection with weekly exercises, and a bigger individual task, which has to be presented to the class in a lecture. |
Remarks: 1) 41632/94306/94315 (Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering Design) and 94902/94410 (Production Technology 2),
2) 41657/94325 (Mechanical Engineering Design) or "Basic training in Pro/Engineer" or the possibility to make an intensive Pro/Engineer self training study of approximately 40 hours during the first two weeks. |
