Online Mechanical Engineering Training in South Africa

PC-DMIS is a leading metrology software for programming and operating coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). This version of the training focuses on using PC-DMIS in non-CAD mode, where all measurements are defined manually or through machine probing rather than imported CAD models.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level metrology and quality engineering professionals who wish to create, run, and validate CMM measurement routines directly from measured data without using CAD models.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Create and edit PC-DMIS programs without CAD models.
• Define measurement features manually or through machine probing.
• Establish datums and alignments using physical features.
• Apply GD&T principles to measured data.
• Generate and interpret inspection reports and dimensional results.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Hands-on practice in PC-DMIS non-CAD mode using a live or simulated CMM.
• Practical exercises based on real part inspection workflows.

The BEM (Boundary Element Method) is a numerical computational method and design technique for solving a range of engineering and physical problems. BEM is a promising alternative to FEM (Finite Element Method) as it bypasses the need for a 3D finite element mesh of an entire space.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn the theory and benefits of using BEM as they apply BEM techniques to solving engineering design problems related to complex three dimensional structures. The mathematical concepts behind BEM are explained and applied as coding exercises throughout the training.

Audience

• Developers
• Engineers

Format of the course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice
