Course Annoucement:
ME498N / ME599E Winter 2006 Advance Topics in Rapid Prototyping And Rapid Manufacturing ===============================================================
Class Instructor: Mark Ganter Office: 310 MEB Ph: 543-5090 Email: ganter@u
You might think of this course as a follow-on to the RP/RM portion of ME 480 "Intro. to CAE". The course will be a combination of lecture (including guest), laboratory, and projects. The course goal is to expose students to both theoretical and hands-on application of as many of the RP/RM technologies as feasible.
All students will be expected to work on a course project which is aligned with their interest and approved by instructor.
Undergraduates must register for ME498c and graduates must register for ME599c
Topics are likely to include some or all of the following:
CAD/CAE/CAM
Solids Modeling (including in-homogenous) Reverse Engineering / 3D scanning
Rapid Prototyping/Manufacturing Processes Casting CNC Milling Direct Metal Deposition Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Inkjet Printing Investment Casting Laminated Object Manufacturing (LOM) Mold & Mold Making Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) Solid Ground Curing Stereolithography (SLA) Thermaljet Printing Three-Dimensional Printing
RP/RM Materials
Student learning goals
General method of instruction

ME 480 would be nice BUT not required. You might be missing some material that you may need to make up yourself.
Hey it's a grad class aren't you always missing background.
Class assignments and grading
labs, research report, and research project.
