Computer aided design (cad) engineers' handbook
1 like396 views
Computer Aided Design (CAD) allows engineers to create detailed part designs with high efficiency and low cost compared to traditional drawing boards. CAD software is used to model designs in both 2D and 3D formats, and can automate tasks like generating drawings, parts lists, and providing new design capabilities. Modern CAD involves creating a central design model that downstream applications in design, analysis, and manufacturing can all utilize. Computer techniques are now closely integrated between modeling designs, analyzing and simulating designs, and generating manufacturing instructions.

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.
