CAD CAM LAB

Lab Incharge: Jinshah B S                             Lab Instructor: Mr. Aliyar Kunju

As technology continues to advance, we no longer need to use protractors and compasses to generate drawings; instead, there are a number of courses that emphasise the use of various software. This laboratory focuses primarily on the detailed engineering of 3D models and/or 2D drawings of physical components using CAD software, but it is also utilised throughout the engineering process, from the conceptual design and layout of products to the definition of manufacturing methods for components. Additionally, it can be used to design products. CAD is the use of computer technologies to aid in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of a design. CAD software is used to increase the designer’s efficiency, improve the design’s quality, enhance communication through documentation, and establish a manufacturing database. This laboratory focuses on design and drafting. Along with that the laboratory also focuses on analysis using Finite Elements Analysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics.

 

The engineering technique computation fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to simulate the behaviour of thermo-fluids in a system, While FEM focuses on the structural analysis. Numerous industries utilise these to study, optimise, and verify the performance of designs prior to expensive prototypes and physical tests. These are most effective when the system’s behaviour cannot be calculated using conventional methods, not necessarily because of the mathematical theory’s complexity, but because of the system’s overall complexity or shape. Using such techniques to forecast the function of critical design features at an early stage eliminates risks that would otherwise linger until later, more expensive design phases. By adding CFD/ FEM modelling early in the design process, engineers have been able to be more daring in their selection of concepts and more sure in the conclusion of their design intent. When it is simpler and faster to make changes, uncertainties are qualified sooner and risks are planned out. Virtual prototyping with CFD simulation, sometimes in conjunction with FEA simulation, means that physical prototypes exist to confirm rather than establish predictions.
