Previously we reported the 3D-CAD educational system for mechanical design. In the present study we aim to develop a educational manufacturing system which can generate cutter paths and cutting conditions so as to obtain 3D-CAD data. To accomplish this, we constructed the FMS plant that can be seen through the window of the CAD/CAM room. The utilization of such integrated education system composed of information technology is very useful for students to study how to apply the 3D-CAD data to the manufacturing and the control of the machine. We introduced 'DIES' as the subject for the practical exercise of manufacturing. In this exercise students can learn the technical method how to design the products and manufacture the dies using 3D-CAD.
