Introduction to CAD & Computer
Graphics

The Role of computer in manufacturing may


be broadly classified into two groups:
1. Computer monitoring and control of the manufacturing process.
2. Manufacturing support applications, which deal essentially with
the preparations for actual manufacturing and post-manufacture
operations.

computers and computer-controlled equipment for
assessing the inspection methods and developing the
quality control and assurance functions.

• CAT – Computer Aided Testing. The software tools that


can take a system through its various phases of
operations and examine the response against the
expected result.
Things to know about CAD
• CAD also known as Computer Aided Drafting/Design
• There are 3 Different types of CAD – (2D, 2.5D and 3D)
Uses of CAD

CAD is used to design variety of different products for a variety of fields


such as
• Architecture
• Electronics
• Automotive Engineering
• Industrial Design
• Machinery
• Visual Art
• Medical Design
The Product Cycle and CAD/CAM

• The Product begin with a need which is identified based on customers


and market demands
• 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.
Inspection to finished product

TWO MAIN PROCESS


• DESIGN PROCESS
- Synthesis (Sketches, Layout Drawings – CAD/CAM System)
- Analysis (Design Modeling & Simulation)
• MANUFACTURING PROCESS
- (Process Planning & Production)
(Outcome  Production Plan, tools procurement, material order,
CNC Programming)
