AbstractFundamentals of Technical Drawing and Computer Aided Design (CAD). Introduction to the design process and sketching. Create and read technical drawings. Create 3D models in CAD and fabricate them directly using additive manufacturing (3D printing).
ObjectiveThe lecture and exercises teach the fundamentals of technical drawing and CAD. After taking the course students will be able to create accurate technical drawings of parts and assemblies as well as read them. Students will also be able to create models of parts and assemblies in a 3D, feature-based CAD system. They will understand the links with simulation, product data management (PDM) and additive manufacturing.
ContentIntroduction to Engineering Design
Sketching in Engineering Design

Technical Drawing:
- projections and views
- cuts
- notations
- primitives

CAD:
- CAD basics
- CAD modeling methods
- sketch modeling
- modeling operations
- feature-based modeling
- assemblies
- creating 2D drawings from 3D parts
- links to simulation, e.g. kinematics
- links to model variants and Product Data Management (PDM)
- links to additive manufacturing (3D printing)
