Computer-Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is the integration of CAD and CAM techniques into a complete manufacturing process to improve flexibility and responsiveness to customer demands. CIM aims to integrate the entire manufacturing enterprise through integrated systems and data communication coupled with management philosophies that improve organizational and personal efficiency. Key benefits of CIM include faster production, greater accuracy, easier modifications, shorter lead times, improved planning and quality control.

1. Computer- Integrated
Manufacturing (CIM)

2. Introduction
1. CIM is the integration of cad and cam
techniques into one complete process.
2. The factory of the future is the CIM
3. In the new economic situation , the customer
demands variety.
4. with a large variety of products , both the life
of the product as well as its volume become
limited.
5. For this reasons , there is need of flexibility of
products and flow manufacturing with the
integration of CAD AND CAM

3. CIM Definition:
1. The society of manufacturing engineers
(SME) Defines CIM is integration of the total
manufacturing enterprise through the use of
integrated systems and data
communications coupled with the new
managerial philosophies that improve
organisational and personal efficiency.
