Course Content
A student who successfully completes the Computer-Aided Machine Tools course gains significant proficiency in industrial manufacturing processes. Through this course, students can effectively utilize computer-aided design and manufacturing software to design parts and products, program and operate automatic production equipment such as CNC machines. Additionally, they acquire the skill to integrate design and manufacturing processes, thereby enhancing efficiency, and become knowledgeable about the operation and maintenance of machine tools. These competencies enable students to develop problem-solving skills in industrial production environments and raise awareness about occupational health and safety issues.
Objectives of the Course
The main objectives of this course are to provide students who are considering working in computer-aided manufacturing with the necessary basic and advanced level knowledge. In this course, students learn the concepts of CAD-CAM and DNC. The main goals include writing part programs by planning processes suitable for mass production for CNC turning and milling machines, selecting tools, and designing fixture patterns. Another objective of the course is to create tool paths using commercial software in the field of computer-aided manufacturing (CAM).
