    Description
    This course is an advanced course on Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) advanced manufacturing software. The course covers the development of advanced CAD models of parts, fixture assemblies, and applying advanced CAM strategies and techniques to program code for 4 & 5 Axis Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) milling and turning equipment. This course introduces the process that takes a product from CAD concept to generate CAM toolpath and compile the toolpath into CNC code that can be applied to drive up to 5 axis of synchronous motion for CNC controlled processes. This class covers advanced 3+1 & 3+2 positioning, 4 & 5 axis contour milling, and 4 axis mill/turn machines. This course is intended for individuals pursuing career pathways related to advanced manufacturing and product development.
