CAD/CAM
• Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer
systems to assist in the creation, modification,
analysis, or optimization of a design.

• Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is the use of


computer systems to plan, manage, and control the
operations of a manufacturing plant through direct
or indirect computer interface with plant’s resources.
Origins of CAD
●
The first source of CAD resulted from attempts to
automate the drafting process.
●
These developments were pioneered by the General
Motors Research Laboratories in the early 1960s.
●
CAD became more widely used after 1970 because of
technological advancements.
●
CAD allowed users to design products much quicker
without the production of an actual product.
•Beginning in the 1980s Computer-Aided Design
programs reduced the need of draftsmen significantly.

•Their affordability and ability to run on personal


computers also allowed engineers to do their own
drafting work.
Uses of CAD
CAD is used to design a variety of different
products for a variety of fields such as
●
Architecture
●
Electronics
●
Automotive engineering
●
Industrial Design
●
Machinery
●
Visual Art
●
Medical Design
Design-Manufacturing Process

How do CAD/CAM systems work?

• Developing NC code requires an understanding of:


1. Part geometry
2. Tooling
3. Process plans
4. Tolerances
5. Fixturing
• Most CAD/CAM systems provide access to:
1. Part geometry
2. Tooling
Components of CAD/CAM/CAE Systems
Hardware Components
• Graphic device is composed of a display
processing unit, a display device, and one or more
input devices
• Input devices:
– Mouse
– Space ball
– Data tablet with a puck or stylus
– Keyboard
• Output Devices:
– Plotters
– Color laser printers
Software Components
• CAD software allows the designer to create
and manipulate a shape interactively and
store it
• CAM software plans, manages and controls
the operations of a manufacturing site
• CAE software analyzes design geometry,
allowing designer to study product behavior
Windows-Based CAD Systems
• User interface is similar to Windows
• Employs component technology, in which best
key software elements are selected from
among available software
• Use object-oriented technology, which
modularizes the program
• Capable of either parametric or variational
modeling
• Internet support
CAD/CAM

• CAD/CAM = Computer Aided Design and


Computer Aided Manufacturing. It is the
technology concerned with the use of
computers to perform design and
manufacturing functions.

20
• CAD can be defined as the use of computer
systems to perform certain functions in the
design process.
• CAM is the use of computer systems to
plan, manage and control the operations of
manufacturing plant through either direct
or indirect computer interface with the
plant’s production resources.

The Product Cycle and CAD/CAM

In order to establish the scope and definition


of CAD/CAM in an engineering environment
and identify existing and future related tools,
a study of a typical product cycle is necessary.
The following Figure shows a flowchart of
such a cycle.

• The product begins with a need which is identified
based on customers' and markets' demands.
• The product goes through two main processes from
the idea conceptualization to the finished product:
1. The design process.
2. The manufacturing process.
 
The main sub-processes that constitute the design
process are:
3. Synthesis.
4. Analysis.
