Aim & Summary

The aim of the course is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the foundational concepts of the engineering drawings and creating a concept by using engineering drawing. The course aims to equip students with the knowledge of product design using CATIA software. The course which leads to students to understand the CAD workbenches such as sketcher in which creation of 2D sketches with the help of draw entities . and studenst can gain the material application in part design and product assembly in assembly workbench and also understanding the concepts of sheet metal design and surface design.
