About

You will be able to

  • Draw fully constrained 2D sketches in a parametric CAD package
  • Create 3D part models using extrude, revolve, sweep, loft, fillet and pattern features
  • Assemble parts with mates, make exploded views and produce 2D drawings with BOM
  • Generate roughing and finishing toolpaths, simulate them and post-process G-code
  • Machine a simple part on a CNC trainer from the CAM program

Who it is for

  • Diploma Mechanical Engineering students of Semester 6 (BTEUP)
  • Diploma Production students and beginners in CAD / CAM

What you need

  • Engineering drawing basics
  • Theory of Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing

Questions

Which software is used?

A parametric CAD/CAM package available at the centre, such as SolidWorks with a CAM module or Fusion 360; the method is the same in all.

Will I machine a part?

Yes. One CAM program is run on the CNC trainer under supervision.

Is this course based on the BTEUP syllabus?

Yes. The units follow the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) diploma syllabus. If your polytechnic follows a different board or a revised scheme, the centre teaches your own syllabus.
