Computer-aided manufacturing
Integrating computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) with computer-aided design systems produces quicker and more efficient manufacturing processes. This methodology is applied in different manufacturing areas.Things taken care of by CAM:
- Verification of the data
- Panelization of the design to fit the raw material
- Ability to edit
- Ability to add manufacturing information
Areas of usage
- In mechanical engineering
- In electronic design automation, CAM tools prepare printed circuit board (PCB) and integrated circuit design data for manufacturing.
