Features: The CAD course for Process Equipment and Control Engineering aligns with the trends of the times and combines traditional courses with modern advanced design technologies. It is a course that applies advanced design and manufacturing technologies to traditional disciplines. Chemical process machinery is a traditional field. How to utilize advanced design and manufacturing technologies to serve traditional disciplines and revitalize them with new vitality and energy, attracting more outstanding students to engage in high-tech applications to enhance the level of traditional industries, makes the establishment of this course highly significant. The first half of the course focuses on the fundamental introduction of CAD technology, which has rapidly spread and promoted in recent years, including the basics of computer graphics, graphics and their conversion standards, modeling techniques, assembly techniques, machining techniques, and the basic principles and current development status of finite element analysis technology. It also includes a simple introduction and comparison of contemporary famous large-scale CAD systems. The second half of the course primarily uses the well-known Unigraphics software as a platform to establish component models according to the machining sequence, perform assembly, and generate engineering drawings. Through extensive hands-on practice, students master the steps and usage methods of designing products using large-scale CAD software systems, deepening their understanding of the theoretical concepts covered in the first half. This enables them to quickly utilize the software to complete products that meet design intentions. The course has a high starting point and consistently emphasizes 3D design from the beginning, highlighting that computer-aided design is not just computer-aided drawing, but also emphasizes the concepts of parallel and collaborative design. This lays a solid foundation for students to quickly adapt to work after graduation and to make a mark in their careers. As a result, students have high motivation to learn, believing that studying this course is of great significance for expanding and extending their knowledge structure.
