This course provides in-depth coverage of Computer Integrated Manufacturing. It contains a high proportion of hands-on study, particularly in the areas of Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), and Computer Numerical Control (CNC). Apart from the key area of CAD/CAM and CNC it includes studies of Concurrent Engineering, Group Technology, Computer Aided Process Planning and Flexible Manufacturing Systems. You will work in computer labs and workshops to complete group projects by using knowledge gained from a wide range of other subjects previously or concurrently studied which include mechanical design, process planning, CNC tool path generation, and CNC machine tool operation.
