1.Awareness that efficiency of computer use in engineering activities can be accomplished only through integrated systems, such as CAD/CAM systems used in the area of product design and design of manufacturing technology. 2. Mastery of theoretical foundations of contemporary CAD/CAM systems structure and operation. 3. Acquisition of practical knowledge about using CAD/CAM systems and numerically controlled machine tools programming.
Upon successful completion of this course Students should be able to: 1. Application of acquired knowledge in the application of computers in the field of geometric modeling products. 2. Design technology of machine parts by using CAD / CAM system. 3. Integrate design products and technologies of their machining using the CAD / CAM system in the field of computer programming numerically controlled machine tools. 4. Know-how to program numerically controlled machine tools. 5. Prepare Technical Elaborate and reports about design products and technologies of their machining using the CAD / CAM system.
