- recognize standard mechanical components on a drawing
- identify how a moderately difficult mechanical system works based on an overall plan
- draw a part in multiple views following the rules of projection
- Identify and draw the intersections of cylinder-plane, cylinder-cylinder, plane-cone, and cylinder-cone.
- draw cross-sectional views and sections
- extract a part from a medium-difficulty assembly drawing
- use of the basic functions of Solidworks software (parts mode, assembly, and drafting)
Objectives
