The FactoryCAD course teaches students to create a basic 3D factory layout drawing using FactoryCAD drawing and editing tools. Students will develop skills to organize drawing objects on layers, add conveyors, equipment, building columns, cranes, furniture, platforms, and mezzanines. They will learn to build their own custom objects and systems. Students will also organize symbols and objects in libraries.
