INTRODUCTION
Computer Aided Manufacturing is to Plan, Manage and Control the operations
of manufacturing plant through either direct or indirect computer interface with the
plant’s production resources. The inventor himself would not have dream of the use
of computers in various fields of life which is drastically changing the entire scenario
of the universe. It is now an integral part of our day today life. There is lot of
research going on with the help of computers in the field of factory automation. The
declining cost of computers coupled with the invention of Multi task high speed
micro processors, really made an industrial revolution and there seems to be no end
for this. A distinct trend can be observed in industries which include an increase in
the use of computer controlled machine tools, the application of new manufacturing
systems, such as laser beam machines and appearance of new generation of
industrial robots in the production line, the manufacturing management through
MRP.
Evolution of Automation
Automatically controlled factory is nothing more than the latest development
in the industrial revolution that began in Europe two centuries ago and progressed
through the following stages.
1. Mechanization started in 1870 at the beginning of industrial revolution with
simple production machines.
2. In 19th Century fixed automatic mechanism and transfer lines came into
existence for faster output and shorter production time.
3. Simple automatic control machines and copying machines were invented in
the later part of the 19 th century. After 1950 the industrial automation
was started. In this second phase of the industrial automation /
revolution, workers, instead of physically performing all the task, are
placed in the control of the machines.
Progressive Change after 1950 is as follows
1. The introduction of Numerical Control (NC) in 1952 opened a new era in
automation.
2. The extension of NC was computerized control (CNC) machine tools in
which computer (Micro Processor) is included as an integral part of the
control system.
3. Commercial Industrial robot was manufactured in 1961 along with CNC
systems. The use of these robots, are well utilized only after 1970’s
4. The next logical extension is a fully automated factory which employs a
Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) and Computer Aided Design /
Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAD / CAM) techniques.

15
 5. The latest of the above is Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) which
includes battery of CNC machines, with flexible modules, for
manufacturing tool head changers automatic material handling systems
like Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) etc. with minimum number of
operating personals.
Computer Numerical Control
A dedicated micro processor or minicomputer on the machine control
makes the computer numerical control, very popular, coupled with lots of other
advantages.

Viva Questions:-
1. Spit out relationship between CAD, CAM and CIM?
 Before going to manufacture a product it should be designed with proper procedure
and the product manufactured though a multiple workstation.
 The product can be designed and manufactured by using of computer terminology.
 Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the manufacturing approach of using
computers to control the entire production process.
2. What is meant by punched tape?
Punched tape or perforated paper tape is a form of data storage, consisting of a long
strip of paper in which holes are punched to store data. Now effectively obsolete, it was
widely used during much of the twentieth century for tele-printer communication, for input
to computers of the 1950s and 1960s, and later as a storage medium
for minicomputers and CNC machine tools.
3. What is called turret?
The turret lathe is a form of metalworking lathe that is used for repetitive production
of duplicate parts, which by the nature of their cutting process are usually interchangeable.
It evolved from earlier lathes with the addition of the turret, which is an indexable tool
holder that allows multiple cutting operations to be performed, each with a different cutting
tool, in easy, rapid succession, with no need for the operator to perform set-up tasks in
between, such as installing or uninstalling tools, nor to control the tool path
4. How to specify a lathe?
a) The height of the centres measured from the lathe bed. (r )
b) The swing diameter over bed. This is the largest diameter of work that will revolve
without touching the bed and is twice the height of the centre measured from the
bed of the lathe. (d)
c) The length between centres. This is the maximum length of work that can be
mounted between the lathe centres. (C)
d) The swing diameter over carriage. This is the largest diameter of work that will
revolve over the lathe saddle, and is always less than the swing diameter over bed.
e) The maximum bar diameter. This is the maximum diameter of bar stock that will
pass through hole of the headstock spindle.
f) The length of bed.
5. What is Jig and fixture?
Jig is work holding and tool guiding device. It is costlier than fixture
Fixture is a work holding device.

Viva question:-
1. What is absolute coordinate system?
Absolute coordinates refers to a Cartesian System that uses X, Y, and sometimes a Z-axis to
establish a point some distance from a common origin. For example, the picture shows an origin
point of '0,0' and the absolute coordinate from that point is '8,7' making it 8 along the X-axis and 7
along the Y-axis.
2. What is relative coordinate system?
Relative coordinates are locations defined by their distance from a given point. An example of
a relative coordinate is the distance from your computer monitor to your printer.
3. To which parameters the ‘G’ codes will indicate?
G- Codes indicate the process parameter. For example
G00 – Rapid positioning
G01 – Linear Interpolation
G02 – circular Interpolation
4. To which parameters the ‘M’ codes will indicate?
M- Codes indicate the machine parameter. For example
M03 – spindle ON (CW)
M05 – Spindle OFF
M06 – Tool change
M07 and M08 – Coolant On/ Off
5. What is simulation?
Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system
over time. The act of simulating something first requires that a model be developed; this
model represents the key characteristics, behaviors and functions of the selected physical or
abstract system or process. The model represents the system itself, whereas the simulation
represents the operation of the system over time.

Viva Questions:-
1. What is up milling and down milling?

In up milling the cutter is rotate clockwise when cutting the work piece from
right to left. In this type of milling the tool spins against the direction of feed.
In this milling process, the cutting chips are carried upward by the tool.
In down milling, the cutter rotates clockwise while cutting the work piece
from left to right. In this milling operation, the tool spins with the direction of
feed. The cutting chips are carried downward by the tool.
2. What is meant by end milling and face milling?

An end mill is a type of milling cutter, a cutting tool used in

industrial milling applications. It is distinguished from the drill bit in its
application, geometry, and manufacture. While a drill bit can only cut in the
axial direction, a milling bit can generally cut in all directions, though some
cannot cut axially.
End mills are used in milling applications such as profile milling, tracer milling,
face milling, and plunging.

In face milling, the cutting action occurs primarily at the end corners of the
milling cutter. Face milling is used to cut flat surfaces (faces) into the work
piece, or to cut flat-bottomed cavities.
3. What is canned cycle?
A canned cycle is a way of conveniently performing repetitive CNC
machine operations. Canned cycles automate certain machining functions
such as drilling, boring, threading, pocketing, etc... A canned cycle is also

Study of Fundamentals of Computer Aided
Design
Date

Aim:
To study the Fundamentals of Computer Aided Design
Introduction
In the mid of 1970s, as computer aided design starts to offer more potential than just
a skill to replicate manual drafting with electronic drafting, the cost gain for companies to
switch to CAD became obvious. The benefit of CAD methods over manual drafting are the
capabilities one often takes for established from computer systems; automated creation of
Bill of Material, interference checking, auto layout in integrated circuits.
Finally CAD offers the designer with the skill to carry out engineering calculations.
During this change, calculations were still done either by manual or by those individuals that
could run computer programs. CAD was an innovative change in the engineering industry,
where draftsman and designer roles begin to combine. CAD did not eliminate department, as
much as it joined departments and make powerful designer.

Design Process

1. Research
A considerable amount of time is used on research, or finding information.
Consideration should be given to the available applicable literature, issues and successes
linked with available solutions, and need of marketplaces.
The basis of information should be significant, including existing results. Reverse
engineering can be a successful technique if other solutions are available in the market.
Added sources of information include the trade journals, available government documents,
local libraries, vendor catalogs and personal organizations.

65
2. Feasibility assessment
The feasibility study is an analysis and assessment of the possible of a proposed
design which is based on detail investigation and research to maintain the process of
decision creation. The feasibility assessment helps to focus the scope of the project to spot
the best situation. The purpose of a feasibility assessment is to verify whether the project
can continue into the design phase.
3. Conceptualization
A Concept Study is the stage of project planning that includes developing ideas and
taking into account the all features of executing those ideas. This stage of a project is done
to reduce the likelihood of assess risks, error and evaluate the potential success of the
planned project.
4. Establishing the design requirements
Establishing design requirements is one of the most essential elements in the design
practice, and this task is usually performed at the same time as the feasibility analysis. The
design requirements control the design of the project all over the engineering design
process. A few design requirements comprise maintainability, hardware and software
parameters, availability, and testability.
5. Preliminary design
The preliminary design fills the gap between the design concept and the detailed
design phase. During this task, the system configuration is defined, and schematics,
diagrams, and layouts of the project will offer early project configuration. In detailed design
and optimization, the parameters of the part being produced will change, but the preliminary
design focuses on creating the common framework to construct the project.
6. Detailed design
The advancement CAD programs have made the detailed design phase more
competent. This is because a CAD program can offer optimization, where it can shrink
volume without compromising the part's quality. It can also calculate displacement and
stress using the FEM to find stresses throughout the part. It is the responsibility of designer
to find whether these stresses and displacements are acceptable, so the part is safe.
7. Production planning and tool design
The production planning and tool design is more than planning how to mass-produce
the project and which tools should be used in the manufacturing of the component. Tasks to
complete in this stage include material selection, identification of the production processes,
finalization of the sequence of operations, and selection of jigs, fixtures, and tooling. This
stage also includes testing a working prototype to confirm the created part meets
qualification standards.
With the finishing of qualification testing and prototype testing, the design process is
completed.
The next phase of preliminary design is the Detailed Design which may includes of
procurement also. This phase builds on the already developed preliminary design, aiming to
further develop each phase of the project by total description through drawings, modeling as
well as specifications.
CAD Technology

66
 Initially software for CAD systems was developed with computer languages such as
FORTRAN but with the development of object-oriented programming methods this has
completely changed. Classic modern parametric attribute based modeler and freeform
surface systems are developing around a number of key ‘C’ modules.
A CAD system can be seen as develop from the interaction of a Graphical User
Interface (GUI) with NURBS geometry and Boundary representation data through a kernel
for geometric modeling. A geometry constraint engine may also be employed to organize the
associative relationships between components in an assembly.
Unexpected facilities of these relationships have led to a new form of prototyping
called digital prototyping. In difference to physical prototypes, which involve manufacturing
time in the design? CAD models can be created by a computer after the physical prototype
has been scanned using a CT scanning device. Based on the nature of the business, digital or
physical prototypes can be primarily selected according to specific requirements. Currently,
no special hardware is required for CAD software. However, some special CAD systems can
do graphically and computationally intensive tasks, so a higher end graphics card, high speed
CPUs may be suggested. CAD systems exist for all the major platforms and some packages
even perform multiple platforms. The human-machine interface is generally through a mouse
but can also be using a digitizing graphics tablet. Handling of the view of the part on the
screen is also sometimes done with the help of a Space mouse or Space Ball. Special CAD
systems also support stereoscopic glasses for viewing the 3D objects.
Geometric Modeling
The two dimensional orthographic views have been the conventional method of
representing a product shape. The two dimensional drawings have been very difficult to
understand. By creating three dimensional drawings of engineering components using
advanced software is known as 3D modeling.
Types of 3D Modeling
1. Wireframe modeling
2. Surface modeling
3. Solid modeling
Wireframe modeling

A 3D wireframe model is an edge or skeletal representation of a real-world object.

3D wireframe models consist of points, lines, arcs, circle, and other curves that define the
edges or center lines of objects.

Surface modeling

67
 Surface modeling is a more complex method for representing objects than
wireframe modeling, but not as sophisticated as solid modeling. Surface modeling is
widely used in CAD (computer-aided design) for illustrations and architectural renderings.
Solid modeling
Solid modeling (or modeling) is a consistent set of principles for mathematical and
computer modeling of three-dimensional solids. Solid modeling is distinguished from
related areas of geometric modeling and computer graphics by its emphasis on physical
fidelity.

The difficulties in wire frame and surface modeling are overcome by solid modeling.
Solid modeling is classified in seven types
1. Primitive instancing
2. Generalized sweeping
3. Special occupancy enumeration
4. Cellular decomposition
5. Constructive Solid Geometry(CSG)
6. Boundary Representation (B-rep)
7. Hybrid System
Hybrid System
In the seven methods the hybrid system is an advanced solid modeling contains
software packages, the advantages, of CSG and B-rep are combined.

5. SOLIDWORKS
CAD Standards
The purpose of CAD standard is that the CAD software should not be device-independent and
should connect to any input device via a device driver and to any graphics display via a device drive.
The graphics system is divided into two parts: the kernel system, which is hardware independent and the
device driver, which is hardware dependent. The kernel system, acts as a buffer independent and
portability of the program. At interface ‘X’ , the application program calls the standard functions and sub
routine provided by the kernel system through what is called language bindings.
The following international organizations involved to develop the graphics standards:
 ACM (Association for Computer Machinery)
 ANSI (American National Standards Institute)
 ISO (International Standards Organization)
 GIN (German Standards Institute)
As a result of these international organization efforts, various standard functions at various levels of
the graphics system developed. These are:
1. IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) enables an exchange of model data basis among CAD
system.
2. DXF (Drawing / Data Exchange Format) file format was meant to provide an exact representation of the
data in the standard CAD file format.
3. STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data) can be used to exchange data between CAD,
Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) , Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) , product data
management/enterprise data modeling (PDES) and other CAD systems.
4. CALS (Computer Aided Acquisition and Logistic Support) is an US Department of Defense initiative
with the aim of applying computer technology in Logistic support.
5. GKS (Graphics Kernel System) provides a set of drawing features for two-dimensional vector graphics
suitable for charting and similar duties.
6. PHIGS (Programmer’s Hierarchical Interactive Graphic System) The PHIGS standard defines a set of
functions and data structures to be used by a programmer to manipulate and display 3-D graphical objects.
7. VDI (Virtual Device Interface) lies between GKS or PHIGS and the device driver code. VDI is now
called CGI (Computer Graphics Interface).
8. VDM (Virtual Device Metafile) can be stored or transmitted from graphics device to another. VDM is
now called CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile).
9. NAPLPS (North American Presentation- Level Protocol Syntax) describes text and graphics in the form
of sequences of bytes in ASCII code.

Thus the Fundamentals of Computer Aided Design was studied.
