STUDENTS GUIDELINES

There are 3 hours allocated to a laboratory session in CAD/CAM LAB. It is a necessary part
of the course at which attendance is compulsory.

Here are some guidelines to help you perform the Experiments effectively:

1. Read all instructions carefully and proceed according to that.

2. Ask the faculty if you are unsure of anything experiment or any concept.
3.
4. Write up full and suitable conclusions for each experiment.
5. After completing the experiment complete the observation and get signature from the
staff.
6. Before coming to next lab make sure that you complete the record and get sign from
the faculty.
