CAD/CAM

It is a technology which takes help of computer for designing and manufacturing purpose. Near about 2500 software are working under this technology.

CAD: Computer aided Designing

CAM: Computer aided Manufacturing

CAD Software’s (IDEAS NX 11 and PRO-ENGINEER Wildfire 02)

APPLICATIONS
	Mechanical  Fields like Automobile Industries , Toys Industries, Home Appliances Industries etc.
	Medical mostly used by dentist for repaing the damaged tooth.
	Reverse Engineering:  used to generate a 3-D Model in computer without drawing, to have its die, from original  component by using 3-D Scanner.
	To design home interior.
	Electronics: to design circuit boards and PCBs.

CONTENTS
	Creating and saving files:
	Solid Modeling:	Used to generate a 3- D model in which we can see its all the six views.
	Surface Modeling:	Surface has zero thickness.
	Integrated Solid and Surface Modeling ( Only in Ideas):	Advance surface modeling.
	Drafting and Detailing:	This is used to have 2 – D Drawing of any solid model with all dimensions.
	Data Migration :	To transfer file from one software to another software.
	Assembly:	To see the assembled view of a component which have 2 or more parts mostly used in machines.
	Sheet Metal:	To create components which have sheet metal features like flanges, bends, etc.
	Core cavity generation:	In this we will generate core and cavity, i.e. dies for any type of solid component.

 CAM (UNIGRAPHICS NX 3)

APPLICATIONS
