Unique @ME

The CAM center will introduce students to the processes and operations associated with computer numerical controlled milling, drilling and turning with associated software like CADEM, Mastercam. All of these processes will be controlled by code generated by software, using CAD modeling.Students are expected to apply their knowledge of computer aided engineering and manufacturing processes to class exercises, home work assignments tests and projects. Over the course of the semester, students will program numerically controlled machine tools to manufacture parts. The Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM)centre consists of equipment having computerhardware and software for developing and testing NC part programs both online and offline. This course is a combination of lecture and laboratory.

• Students will gain a basic understanding of computer numerical control (CNC) machining processes.
• Operations using a combination of G-codes, milling and turning equipment in the technical center.
• Offline program will be generated using CADEM and Mastercam.
• Develop cost effective 3D models for visualization of intricate components.
• Cope with advanced technology and boost their career in this challenging environment.

• The students will be able to demonstrate a basic understanding of machining fundamentals including speed and feed calculations, tooling systems, and work-holding systems for CNC milling and turning equipment.
• The students will get hands on experience of numerical controlled (NC) programming strategies.
• The students will be able to generate program and operate CNC milling and turning equipment.
• The students will be able to create Macro programmes for Drilling, Milling loops and canned cycles.
• The students will be able to generate G-code for 3D-printer and develop prototype models.

Twice in semester: 2 months

• CNC Vertical machining center: having capability of simultaneous motion of 3-axis to machine intricate components using FANUC i-series controller.
• CNC turning centre: Having capability of simultaneous motion of 2-axis to generate 2D contours using SIEMENS 802 D series
• 3D Printer: ultimate 3D printing machine for development models complex engineering problems.
