Program Overview
Training Outcomes:
At the end of the program, the learner should have acquired the listed knowledge and skills.
The job role of a Computer Aided Tool & Die Design Engineer typically involves using
computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to
design and create tools and dies used in various manufacturing processes.
–Â Proficiency in CAD/CAM Software: Mastery of CAD/CAM software such as
AutoCAD, SolidWorks, CATIA, or similar tools is essential for designing and
modeling tool and die components.
–Â Understanding of Engineering Principles: Knowledge of engineering principles,
including mechanics, materials science, and manufacturing processes, is crucial for
designing tools and dies that meet performance and durability requirements.
–Â Blueprint Reading: Ability to interpret engineering drawings and blueprints accurately
to understand design specifications and requirements.
–Â Precision Machining Skills: Proficiency in operating precision machining equipment
such as CNC milling machines, lathes, and grinders to fabricate tool and die
components with tight tolerances.
–Â Material Selection and Processing: Understanding different materials used in tool and
die making, including metals, plastics, and composites, and knowledge of appropriate
processing techniques such as forging, casting, and heat treatment.
–Â Quality Control and Inspection Techniques: Familiarity with quality control processes
and inspection techniques to ensure the accuracy and quality of manufactured tool and
die components.
–Â Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to troubleshoot and resolve issues that arise during
the design and manufacturing process, such as geometric dimension and tolerance
(GD&T) challenges or machining errors.Utilization of precision measuring
instruments such as micrometers, calipers, height gauges, and coordinate measuring
machines (CMMs) to verify part dimensions and tolerances.
