MEC 331 Solid Modeling and Manufacturing Lab
This laboratory course complements the Solid Modeling and Manufacturing class. Students will combine solid modeling tools and manufacturing processes during a series of weekly hands-on activities in a lab setting. The course includes cutting techniques and tools, 3D printing, water jet cutting, manual and CNC machining, and welding. Lab sessions will be focused on the study of manufacturability of different designs and materials, and integration of digital design with the production of real parts. By the end of the course students will have developed basic skills in the selection and use of key manufacturing processes and equipment.
