32420339Manufacturing with Solid Modeling Advanced
Course Information
Description
This advanced course requires students to draw complex solid models utilizing CAD software. These Models will then be imported into CAM software to use advanced programming methods to produce high quality parts. Mill Programming will include 2D, 2.5D, 3D, 4-Axis and an introduction to 5 Axis and 3+2 techniques. Lathe programming will include advanced turning and live tooling.
