Engineering Drawing & Design Video #1

Using examples and projects taken directly from our popular Engineering Drawing and Design book, this all-new video series provides viewers with 160 minutes of step-by-step demonstrations of drafting, sketching, and CAD transitioning techniques on 8 tapes. The first video in this series begins with an introduction to the design process, from steps required to produce an effective design through how design and drafting fits into the manufacturing process. Tapes 3 through 6 guide viewers to mastery of specific skills, such as: sketching, orthographic projections, dimensioning, geometric constructions, plus auxiliary views and section drawings. Given the importance of computers in today's workplace, an entire tape is devoted to making the transition from drafting board to CAD with emphasis on geometric construction drawings. The final tape offers insights into the use of tools used to move a design from the initial sketch to the manufacturing stage, including rapid prototyping, part animation, and final manufacturing of a part in the assembly. In a field that requires highly developed visualization skills, this one-of-a-kind video series will greatly reduce the learning curve. The modular video series design also ensures that the content reflects current design and manufacturing industry practices as well as the latest technological innovations, preparing the viewer for a career in today's engineering environment.
