Description

    The first part of the course is designed to introduce the 3D wireframe, prismatic and sculptured surface modeling functions; these topics will be covered using Autodesk Mechanical Desktop. The second part covers the pictorial creation of coordinate measuring machine part inspection programs directly from 3D CAD wireframe & surface models. The student will learn how to program, verify, edit, optimize, simulate and output DMIS and CMM Native language programs. The student will be introduced to the basics of CheckMate Reporting & CheckMate Analysis including SoftFit best-fit root cause engineering analysis. Students will be able to check their programs and results using a CMM in the training facility. The amount of time spent on the CMM will depend on the number of students, and the progression of the course content.
