Fundamental concepts underlying the engineering systems used to produce products will be an integral part of this course. Emphasis will be placed on practical application of theory from lectures. COURSE OBJECTIVES:Upon completing the course, the student will be able to:1. Describe CAD/CAM. 2. List the stages of part design and manufacturing. 3. Identify the types of three dimensional modeling schemes and appropriately select the type for designing a part.4. Describe the documentation resulting from the CAD process. 5. Describe CAD design and engineering analysis activities. 6. Produce a solid model drawing and transfer geometry to another software7. Translate geometry into programming code suitable for machining.8. Produce a CNC machined part from a solid model drawing.9. Describe manual part programming methods. 10.Describe the CAD/CAM part programming process. 11.Describe post processing. 12.Select and electronically transfer any of four file types appropriate for software interaction.WEC 1/06 MET 423 CAD/CAMSPECIAL EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES:Electronic recording media: Flash drive, floppy etc.GRADING PROCEDURE:1. All assignments will be turned in on the day designated during class time for the course. No grade will be given for late work.2. No make-up assignments or examinations will be allowed unless provisions for circumstances are made in advance of the date in question.3. All written work will be evaluated on the following criteria:a. neatnessb. spellingc. content qualityd. completeness4. Please ask questions if assignments are unclear. The final responsibility for misunderstandings and late work rests with the student.5. Points will be assigned for each student’s work. The total points obtained throughout the course will then be evaluated according to the following chart:A 100-92% A- 90-92%B+ 88-90% B 82-88% B- 80-82%C+ 78-80% C 72-78% C- 70-72%D+ 68-70% D 62-68% D- 60-62%6. Missing class is not “OK”. Discussion questions, safety instruction, and instruction on equipment and instruments are all valuable and should not be missed. Absences cause expensive wear and tear on equipment, supplies and facility. Demonstrations on equipment and technique will not be given over.7. Students are expected to perform ongoing cleaning and minor maintenance on equipment in the laboratory if used in this course. Work areas should be straightened up and clean before leaving the lab area.8. All written work will be typed or word-processed double-spaced, with 1” margins. Papers will be stapled in the upper left-hand corner.9. Appointments can be directly made with the instructor or via E-Mail.10. “Close” grades will be determined by attendance patterns, enthusiasm and willingness to learn.WEC 1/06 MET 423 CAD/CAMCourse Assignments:Homework assignments 8ea. 40%Exams and Final 3ea. 20%Individual Project 1ea. 30%Participation – involvement 10%Homework: Homework is required in this course.
