Computer Integrated Design and Manufacturing
Companies must deliver products to customers at
the minimum possible cost, the best possible
quality, and the minimum lead time starting from
the product conception stage to final delivery,
service and disposal.
The core of computer technology includes
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Design using
geometric modeling, Shading and Rendering
Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) Computer
Numeric Control (CNC), Die and Mold design,
Welding, Sheet metal
Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) Analysis Finite
Element Analysis (FEA), Optimization, Evaluation
