Extensive improvements in undergraduate engineering design and                  manufacturing programs will be implemented.  The CAD phase is well              under way.  This thrust targets the vital expansion of the CAM                  program through the acquisition of a Flexible Manufacturing System              (FMS).  The proposed system will be integrated with the existing                CAD facility to provide a comprehensive undergraduate CAD/CAM                   capability.  Specific goals are to provide undergraduate students               with hands-on experience with computer interfacing and control of               modern numerically controlled machine tools, robots, and assembly               and inspection equipment while exercising CAM and CIM principles                and operations.  The FMS contains a control station, a mill, a                  lathe, three robots, tooling for assembly, a continuous conveyor,               and vision inspection.  A totally new and state-of-the-art                      dimension will be added to the undergraduate curriculum.
