mECHANICAL ENgINEERINg DESIgN - CAD

Software and hardwareKnowledge and understanding of software and hardware: Understanding of how to configure the parameters of the software Knowledge of computer operating systems to be able to use and manage computer files andsoftware correctly Working knowledge to use plotters and printers2.2 Theoretical knowledge2.2.1 Theoretical knowledge is required but not tested explicitly.2.2.2 Knowledge of rules and regulations is not examined.2.3 Practical workPractical tasks will be given in the form of sketches, drawings and electronic data files, individualphysical components and assemblies. Collection of information from these sources will requirereading of prints, sketches, drawings, engineering tables, charts, and manuals. Additionalinformation will be obtained from direct measurement of actual parts supplied and/or from scaleddrawings. Problems will require solutions in the form of graphical and textual descriptions, sufficientto communicate successfully the information necessary for manufacturing of these componentsand assemblies in industry.Only the English version of the chosen software is to be used during the Competition.3. THE TEST PROJECT3.1 Format / structure of the Test ProjectThe Test Project is a series of 4 standalone modules.Skills that could be tested in the different modules could cover: Sheet Metal parts and Frame structures and assemblies Welded parts and assemblies Mechanical parts and assemblies Detail drawing Functional Simulation and photo rendering Reverse engineering from a physical model Modification of a product to fulfil and design brief.A combination of the above skills is allowed in each module.WSC2013_TD05_ENDate: 11.10.11 – v4.0Copyright © WorldSkills International.
