A One Day Hands on Training  on “CATIA V5 Essentials in Mechanical Engineering” Organized by Department of Mechanical Engineering (Shift II) In Association with CORE CADD SOLUTIONS, Pune on 22nd July 2016. Expert, Mr. Sajid Khadas, Engineer-Core Cadd Solutions, who is having real time experience in modeling, worked as onsite deputation Engineer with Global team projects were contributor with significant responsibilities and ownership in designing or engineering the components for Aerospace, Power & water & Automotive industries have been invited as resource person.

The Program was started with formal inauguration addressing the participants by the Prof. Shevale S.S. and HOD of Mechanical Engineering Dr. Kate A.M. Overview of the program and introduction of the Expert from Core Cadd Solutions, Pune was given by Prof. Shevale S.S., Program Coordinator.

Total 35 students were attended CATIA V5 program. The workshop was arranged in two sessions of 2 ½ Hrs each. In the first session was Introduction, Parametric Sketching, Parametric solid modeling, Advance solid modeling tools and Introduction of Surface were discussed. The second session of the workshop was devoted to the practicals on CATIA V5.

The program was interactive and the students are very well technically benefitted from the training. Many real time case studies were discussed and few assignments are given to participants to provide the solutions during the program.

Objective of FDP: At the end of the training the participants will have: Understanding of CATIA VS interface and application of commands for the following modules Sketcher, Part Design, Assembly Design & Drafting.
