    Description
    This course is designed for people working in or entering the Sheet Metal trade in the fields of HVAC, consumer products, industrial products, commercial products, mechanical engineering, and architectural products. This course will provide comprehensive instruction in the building of a basic 3D model in CAD software, creation of 2D mechanical and construction drawings based on the 3D CAD, and fabrication of the design using laboratory equipment. Students will be introduced to the concepts of parametric 3D CAD modeling with the intent to manufacture, working through all the steps to create a manufacturable end product. The primary focus will be products made of sheet metal and designing for CNC machinery.
