Content
This course allows students to improve their use of advanced digital CAD tools. The mechanical designer: • Designs mechanical systems, • Projects (draws), • Sizes the mechanical components, • Defines the technological characteristics, • Specifies the technical features, • Guides the production department. Each session includes a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part allows the student to improve his knowledge in the following areas: • Advanced use of CAD software: brings together the computer tools that make it possible to carry out a geometric modeling of an object in order to be able to simulate tests with a view to manufacturing, • Advanced use of simulation tools (kinematics, dynamics, digital), • Advanced use of augmented reality tools, • Advanced use of topological optimization tools, • Advanced use of PLM software: corresponds to all the processes, technologies, software and methods put in place to properly manage the lifecycle of a product. The practical part allows the student to apply his knowledge through a team project comprising the following phases: • Complete modeling of the project proposed by the teacher, • Complete production of a prototype using the tools available in the FabLab, • Writing of a complete mechanical design report, • Presentation of a communication medium and promotion of the work carried out over the year.
