Course detail
Computer Aided Production (CAD/CAM)
FSI-GPI-K Acad. year: 2025/2026 Winter semester
The aim of the course is to apprise students with practical knowledge in the field of modern methods for production planning with the help of simulation methods, CAD/CAM in relation to the Industry 4.0. New methods and approaches are explained by means of examples and by solving industrial problems. The course will familiarise students with the given field and provide them with instructions for solving particular problems. The seminars will focus on solving particular issues raised by the students.
