Learning CAD: An Introduction to 3D Modelling
Welcome to the wonderful world of CAD with Fusion 360, Inventor, AutoCAD and Blender
What you'll learn
Understand the basic principles of computer aided design
Understand the role which CAD has on society
Understand a range of CAD terminology
Have proficient skills in Fusion 360
Have proficient skills in Inventor Professional
Develop skills in AutoCAD
Develop skills in Blender
Use CAD software to produce rendered images
Read and use technical drawings
Use CAD software to produce technical drawings
Use CAD software to create simulations
Use CAD software to create mechanical animations
Produce CAD models of real world objects
Requirements
No experience in CAD needed.
Learners will be required to have access to the following software: Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Fusion 360, AutoCAD and Blender, these can be accessed for free with trials or an education licence
Access to a computer (preferably windows or mac which can run windows software)
Description
Learn about CAD and how to use popular CAD software such as Inventor, Fusion 360, Blender and AutoCAD. Learn the fundamental skills required to model, render, simulate and animate. This course is for beginners and requires no prior knowledge about 3D design.
Students learn about the basics of CAD including universal tools and boolean operations. This introductory course also delves into more advanced topics including surface and freeform modelling as well as creating technical graphics. At the beginning of the course, we discuss the impact and need for CAD in our modern society, reinforcing the importance of these digital skills in industry.
Students also take time to create a CAD environment in order to produce realistic images of the models they have created. This introduces the use of common CAD file formats.
Projects are designed to challenge and engage students, allowing them to both develop and demonstrate their skills. Independent tasks allow you to gain confidence when using 3D tools. The course is completed with an assignment to assess your knowledge of CAD modelling.
For anyone interested in engineering, 3D design, game development or technology, this is an ideal first course for you.
Your instructor is a student studying a masters design and technology education and has a specialism in 3D computer modelling.
Start developing your skills today with an introduction to 3D modelling.
Who this course is for
Budding 3D modellers interested in learning the ropes to using popular CAD software in a range of applications.
Engineers and architects looking to learn intermediate skills in CAD software
Students developing skills in 3D design
Those intimidated by the vastness of CAD
