PREFIX/NUMBER: CAD 155 CREDIT HOURS: 3.0
2. PREREQUISITE: CAD 153
3. RESOURCES NEEDED:

TEXT:

Design Modeling with Pro/Engineer by: James E. Bolluyt, Schroff Development Corporation-Publisher

Pro/Engineer Tutorial (Wildfire Edition) by Roger Toogood, Schroff Development Corporation-Publisher

REFERENCE:

Pro/Engineer Advanced Part Design Training Manual by Parametric Technology Corporation

Pro/Engineer Advanced Assembly Training Manual by Parametric Technology

SUPPLIES:

Notebook, calculator, (4) 3 ½" floppy diskettes and pencil.
4. COURSE DESCRIPTION: Emphasizes advanced part creation, drawing manipulation, and assembly techniques using Pro/Engineer by parametric technologies.
5. COURSE GOAL: The student will demonstrate familiarity with the techniques involved in using Pro/Engineer software to create advanced 3D solid models and advanced part assemblies as used in mechanical design, manufacturing, and rapid prototyping.
6. COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The student will be able to:
A. describe the various model inquiry features of Pro/Engineer.
B. generate basic and advanced Pro/Engineer part relations to communicate and maintain design intent.
C. demonstrate a working knowledge of the Pro/Engineer drawing mode to create full, half, offset, revolved, removed, and broken-out section views.
D. demonstrate the ability to use layers for model organization in part, drawing, and assembly modes.
E. demonstrate the ability to create non-parallel blends and swept blends using Pro/Engineer.
F. create advanced sweeps using variable section sweeps, trajectory parameter (trajpar), and relations.
G. demonstrate the ability to use Pro/Program for part design and feature manipulation.
H. demonstrate the use of advanced Pro/E tips and techniques to develop a part design philosophy, correct unattached features, resolve failed features during regeneration, and manipulate features using redefine, reorder, and reroute.
I. demonstrate the ability to create advanced rounds and drafts using Pro/E
J. demonstrate the ability to use advanced relations in part creation to establish and maintain hole tolerances and evaluate features.
K. demonstrate the ability to construct a family of parts.
L. use advanced feature copy commands to create user defined features, mirror features, move and translate features, make dependent and independent features, specify local groups, and create pattern tables.
M. demonstrate the use of the merge and cutout commands to create and insert features.
N. demonstrate the ability to use map keys, trail files, and configure pro files.
O. demonstrate the ability to control critical design dimensions and utilize global dimensions.
P. demonstrate the ability to create an engineering notebook using layout and list the advantages and considerations of using Pro/Notebook.
Q. demonstrate the ability to create an automatic assembly.
7. EVALUATION PROCEDURES:
85% - The student’s grade will be based on the scores received on periodic quizzes and classroom assignments.
10% - Will be based on the score received by the student on the midterm and final examinations.
5% - The student’s grade will be based on the instructor’s evaluation of the student’s attendance pattern, demonstration of a professional attitude, and participation in class activities/discussions.

9. METHODS OF INSTRUCTION:
To be successful in this course, students are expected to participate in discussions, readings, in-class writing, and peer review activities. The instructor may assign point values to such activities.
10. ACADEMIC INTEGRITY:
The very nature of higher education requires that students adhere to accepted standards of academic integrity. Therefore, Pueblo Community College has adopted a policy of academic conduct as described in the Student Handbook. Violation of academic integrity may be defined to include the following: cheating, plagiarism, falsification and fabrication, abuse of academic materials, complicity in academic dishonesty, and personal misrepresentation. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of the behaviors that constitute academic dishonesty. Sanctions for violating the standards of academic integrity may include warning, probation, suspension, and/or failure of the course or assignment at the discretion of the instructor.
11. ADA NOTICE:
Students who have a documented disability may be eligible to receive accommodations for this class. Please contact the Disability Resources Center at 549-3446 for further information.
