Course detail

Computer Aided Production Systems I (CAD/CAM)

FSI-GPI-KAcad. year: 2013/2014

The aim of the course Computer Support of Production Systems is to provide students with practical knowledge in the field of modern methods for planning and scheduling of a production with the help of simulation methods, AI, CAD/CAM. 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.
