Desenvolvimento de máquina de comando numérico de baixo custo para auxílio nos métodos de ensino e aprendizagem na engenharia.

Abstract

The work presents the development of a low cost Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) didactic module to aid in teaching and learning methods in engineering. This stems from the need to train graduates with competent and socially responsible technical capacity, linked to the teaching proposals stipulated by the new National Curriculum Guidelines (DCNs) to be implemented in engineering courses. A low-cost CNC Laser engraving machine was developed, with the aim of applying methods and strategies of active methodologies to activate the learning of the proposed content in the Numerical Command and Machine Tools course at the Federal Institute of Rondônia. For the development it was used research tools, such as an online academic platform, and methodology for the development of mechatronics products, the V Model. The research results presents the closure of the machine assembly and active methodology strategies for student-centered learning. The machine confection made a multidisciplinary character possible, through the sharing of the 3D printer archives it is possible to replicate the machine by others teachers in other teaching centers and laboratories.
