Computer-Aided Design & Mfg

Catalog description

This course provides an introduction to computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) using Solidworks and MasterCAM. Students will learn how to model individual parts and assemblies. These skills will then be applied in a manufacturing context to produce CAD models of molds, jigs, and fixtures. Lastly, students will learn to generate CNC toolpaths from their CAD models. Students may not take this course for credit if they have already taken another Solidworks modeling course.
