CAD1 - Introduction to Computer Aided DesignLaajuus (3 cr)

Objective

After completing the course, you will be able to design a product taking into account its manufacture and material. You will also be able to create 3D models and assemblies using technical documents. You will learn how to make 3D models that can be used for analysis, simulation and various manufacturing techniques such as 3D printing and as a basis for CAM tooling.
