Computer-aided design (CAD) also known as computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) is the use of computer technology for the process of design and design-documentation. Computer-aided design (CAD) involves creating computer models defined by geometrical parameters. These models typically appear on a computer monitor as a three-dimensional representation of a part or a system of parts‚ which can be readily altered by changing relevant parameters. CAD systems enable designers to view objects under

used in the design and development of new products in a variety of applications both at home and on a commercial/industrial basis. Examples of typical CAD applications include: - aerospace - architecture - car/vehicle design - construction (e.g. roads‚ services‚ surveying‚ tunnels‚ bridges‚ etc.) - consumer goods (e.g kettles‚ toasters‚ etc.) - digital circuits - factory layouts (e.g. ergonomics) - fashion design - garden/landscape gardening - heating systems - interior designs (houses‚ offices

CAD/CAM The term CAD/CAM means Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing. CAD is defined as the use of computer technology to design a part or a product‚ modify it and also analyze the engineering design. CAD has become popular as the use of the design software’s helps in lower product development costs and shortened design cycles. CAM is defined as the use of computer technology to manufacture or prototype product components with the help of computer numerical control (CNC). Selection

TECHNICAL PRESENTATION Computer-aided design Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer technology for the design of objects‚ real or virtual. CAD often involves more than just shapes. As in the manual drafting of technical and engineering drawings‚ the output of CAD often must convey also symbolic information such as materials‚ processes‚ dimensions‚ and tolerances‚ according to application-specific conventions. CAD may be used to design curves and figures in two-dimensional ("2D")

Before computers there were hands and tools. Before hands and tools there were just hands. Humans have always been designing and throughout human history drafting is what became of it. With new technology in building during the earlier years drafting needed to be changed to accommodate it. Humans have always been able to find better ways to accomplish things. Drafting is no different. Before people used tools to draw something they went to what we call now a "General Contractor" with an

1.0 Introduction 1.1 Background of the Study Way back from the early years‚ computer is just a computing device which is used for business establishments in computing large numbers. And if you’re the user of this computer‚ you may find yourself bored. Through the rapid development of the computer industry‚ there are several studies conducted just to improve the computer technology. And one of the results of these studies is the Multimedia System. In generic‚ Multimedia is simply the use

Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is the use of computer software to control machine tools and related machinery in the manufacturing of workpieces.[1][2][3][4][5] This is not the only definition for CAM‚ but it is the most common;[1] CAM may also refer to the use of a computer to assist in all operations of a manufacturing plant‚ including planning‚ management‚ transportation and storage.[6][7] Its primary purpose is to create a faster production process and components and tooling with more precise

Beginning in the 1980s computer-aided design programs reduced the need of draftsmen significantly‚ especially in small to mid-sized companies. Their affordability and ability to run on personal computers also allowed engineers to do their own drafting and analytic work‚ eliminating the need for entire departments. In today’s world‚ many students in universities do not learn manual drafting techniques because they are not required to do so. The days of hand drawing for final drawings are virtually
