Catalogue data
Abstract | The participants learn about the procedures and tools that are necessary to develop technical products. The focus is on computer-based design and development and the management of the related product structures in an integrated software environment. |
Objective | The participants will deepen their existing CAD and PDM knowledge so that these may be directly applied and used in the focus project. - CAD update, CAD mythology for construction (Top down modelling) - Introduction to the Team Center (Siemens NX PDM System), including document filing system - Team Center data flow, in particular the process of creating new Items and Parts, the approval procedure and creating different versions of Parts The participants will learn and experiment with procedures by working on concrete examples so that they will subsequently be able to begin with independent product construction. The following topics will be dealt with in depth in the lectures supporting the focus project: functional system modelling, construction methodology, FE calculations, movement simulation and theme-specific customization of the product structure. |
Content | 1. Afternoon: CAD refresher and top down modelling - To refresh already existing knowledge of CAD functionality. i. Sketch and features as well as manipulation and optimizing models. ii. Assembling iii. Drafting. iv. Organisation. working methods, conventions. -Top down modelling CAD i. Introduction to top down modelling and concept modelling ii. Case study of top down modelling iii. Introduction to case study in concept modelling for the Focus Project (which will be continued at a later date) 2.Afternoon: Introduction to TC (Team Center) - Introduction: Short introduction to PLM (What is the idea of PLM? PLM is more than the pure management of drawings!). - Lesson 1 - Team Center Rich Client Interface - Lesson 2 - TC data types - Lesson 3 - Construction from data in TC - Lesson 4 - Searching for and examining data. 3.Afternoon: TC application - Lesson 5 - Unit lists (PSE) - Lesson 6 - Cross-referencing - Lesson 7 - Data release - Lesson 8 - Product data examination |
Prerequisites / Notice | Mindestens 2 Studierende pro Fokusprojekt sollten diesen Kurs besuchen, idealerweise mehr. Als Alternative zu diesem Kurs können einzelne Studierende des Fokusprojektes auch den Kurs Systems Engineering für Projekt- und Studienarbeiten belegen. Einer der beiden wird zur Zulassung zum Fokusprojekt vorausgesetzt. |
