Summary/Abstract: The devices are used to fasten the parts or the tools within various mechanical processing operations on machine tools. The devices can be manufactured to meet certain internal requirements of the factory (technological devices), or may have the market destination, being sold to other companies. Currently, for example, are sold parts of devices that perform certain functions (orientation, positioning, fixing, driving, tilting, partitioning, etc.). Thus, there are numerous databases from various companies, which include such devices parts. The paper presents an e-learning system for students' learning of principles, rules and methodologies for using these elements in devices designing. The context in which the system is structured is that to respect the stages, phases and activities from the 12E design methodology of the devices. Students receive a optimal scheme for orientation- clamping, following that, based on some design principles, methods and rules, to create a device from the elements found in the databases of e-learning system.
