Overview of CAD/CAM Processes

This document discusses computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems. It defines CAD as computer software used to design products and CAM as software used to control machine tools and manufacturing equipment. The document asks 14 questions about topics like the conventional design process, benefits of CAD, geometric modeling techniques, CAE software applications, using CAD for prototyping, CAD system hardware and configurations, the two application areas of CAM, the concept of CAD/CAM integration, reasons for using CAD/CAM in concurrent engineering, and the scope of computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) systems.
