CAD/CAM Lab

The main objective of this lab is to train IE students in the area of CAD/CAM and familiarize them how CAD/CAM is implemented in the real world. It provides the broad knowledge about the areas of computer aided drafting, solid modeling, part programming, and CNC machining. The students get hands on experience in setting up and machining the workpieces on trainer lathe and milling machines.

1. Desktop trainer CNC lathe machines (Boxford).
2. Desktop trainer CNC milling machines (Charly4U).
3. CNC EMCO milling and lathe machines.
4. CAD/CAM software (CATIA).

The following are photos of equipment examples included in the CAD/CAM Lab.
