The CAD lab includes 39 computers of latest configuration with support for advanced CAD/PRO-E applications, along with the most competent teaching faculty. Industry standard software’s like AutoCAD, CATIA are introduced to students. AutoCAD is used to create technical drawings of machine parts. Fourth semester Students are introduced to 2D drawings in AutoCAD. CATIA is used for 3D modeling by the sixth semester mechanical engineering students.

OBJECTIVE

To make the students understand   and interpret drawings of   machine   components so as   to prepare assembly drawings either manually and using standard CAD packages.

To familiarize the students with Indian Standards on drawing practices and standard components

To understand and handle design problems in a systematic manner.

To gain practical experience in handling 2D drafting and 3D modeling software systems.

To apply CAD in real life applications.
