Introduction
Computer Aided Design (CAD) allows
engineers to create detailed designs of parts
with maximum efficiency and minimal cost. The
days of the drawing boards are essentially over
with the release of affordable and easily used
2D and 3D CAD packages. The aim of CAD is
to apply computers to both the modeling and
communication of designs. This includes
automating such tasks as the production of
drawings or diagrams and the generation of lists
of parts in a design, and providing new
techniques which give the designer enhanced
capabilities to assist in the design process.
Computer-aided design now involves the
creation of a central design description or
model data which all applications in design,
analysis and manufacturing can utilize.
Computer-based techniques for the analysis
and simulation of the design, and for the generation of manufacturing instructions, are now closely
integrated with the techniques for modeling the form and structure of the design.
