Currently, mechanical projects are developed and tested before manufacturing using powerful design, calculation, and mechanization tools. Thus, before having a built prototype, virtual prototypes are available .

Virtual prototypes are used to check, before manufacturing a single part, from its geometry to the way it is manufactured, through operational simulations, or even mechanical calculations.

Therefore, it is essential that you know the most common production processes in a workshop , the machines used and their control (numerical control), as well as knowing how to use computer tools (Solid Edge)  for 3d mechanical design.

With the completion of this  Diploma of University Specialization  in CAD CNC Systems  you will be able to acquire the capacity and skills necessary to perform the calculation of elements, determine the most appropriate materials, make decisions about the machining process and its subsequent implementation, that is, carry out a project mechanical.

course objectives: Diploma of University Specialization in Mechanical Design and CAD-CNC Systems

You will learn to:

• Integrate the different technologies  that influence the  design, prototyping, and final manufacturing process of mechanical components
• Interpret and perform mechanical drawings  correctly
• Know the  techniques of calculation and representation in drawings  of the main elements that make up a complex mechanical system (shafts, bearings, beams …)
• Know the materials and their characteristics , the basic machining processes (turning, milling, drilling, threading techniques …), as well as the applicable current regulations
• Mastering the main  CNC programming  language (language under ISO code), as well as making an introduction to  CAM systems . For this, a CNC simulator will be used, and a CAM program provided to the student
• Know and master 3D CAD systems , using a high-level CAD system: Solid Edge *

professional outings: Diploma of University Specialization in Mechanical Design and CAD-CNC Systems

With this course you will be able to train to work as:

• Responsibility positions in technical offices, production departments, or maintenance in general
• Responsible for technical office, draftsmen, designers, industrial design of final product, machines, and tools
• Workers from quality departments, R&D, or materials laboratories
• CAD, CNC and CAM system operators, workshop managers / managers, maintenance, etc.

San Jorge University degree

Upon successful completion of the course, you will obtain a University Specialization Diploma in Mechanical Design and CAD-CNC Systems , issued by  Universidad San Jorge  (36 ECTS credits).

To access one of our  University Specialization Diplomas, the following  must be compulsorily completed:

• Being over 18 years*

* In this case, the title of Expert is issued indicating the content and duration of the study in hours. It does not award ECTS.

Or meet one of these requirements:

• Be in possession  of the Baccalaureate degree or equivalent  (also European and International Baccalaureate)
• To be in possession of the title of  Superior Technician of Professional Training , or Superior Technician in  Plastic Arts and Design  or  Superior Sports Technician .
• Be  over 25 years of age with at least one year of  accredited professional experience related to the content of the training.
• Be a university graduate or be studying a degree at the San Jorge University itself.

If this last access requirement is met, the degree issued will be a University Specialization Diploma  (36 ECTS credits). Otherwise, the student will obtain a Specialization Diploma .

SEAS courses prepare you to master the essential operations in your area, providing you with all the necessary tools to do so. In addition, they give you access to your  own virtual classroom  with live classes through Webinars and guarantee specific practices of your specialty.
