Associate of Applied Science
The Computer Aided Design (CAD) Drafting and Tool Design program concentrates on the use of CAD in product drawing, dies (metal stamping), molds (plastic processes) and jig, fixture and gauge design. Students are involved with computers throughout the program to familiarize them with CAD software applications such as detailing, GD & T, general tolerancing, wire frame, surfacing, solid modeling with parametric technology and Rapid Prototyping. Computer-aided engineering software for mold design and mechanical applications are also used. Student solid models are processed and created on our Rapid Prototyping equipment. Tool design is critical to the manufacturing industry. Tooling is the foundation for product design and the mechanical and manufacturing industries. Students learn to design and detail basic tooling requirements for the manufacture of products. Students also gain an understanding of the related areas of mathematics, materials and machining.
