This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to create 3D solid models using a computer-aided design (CAD) system. It includes applications in CAD, computer graphics and animation, rapid prototyping, medical testing and visualisation of scientific research.
This unit covers the set up and manipulation of CAD software to produce 3D solid models and includes the use of region and solid modelling techniques, section views, and pre-drawn library files, extraction of properties and application of basic rendering techniques.
This unit is suitable for those working within a drafting work environment and can be applied across all engineering disciplines.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
