Automation

 Automation was defined as the technology

concerned with the application of complex
mechanical, electronic, and computer-
based systems in the operation and
control of production.

2
CAD/CAM Defined

 CAD/CAM is the technology concerned

with use of digital computers to perform
certain functions in design and production.
 CAD/CAM provide the technology base for
the computer-integrated factory.

3
Need for CAD/CAM
 Design and manufacturing forms the core of engineering.
 To remain competitive in global economy.
 New products with enhanced features at competitive
costs.
 Short lead times and short product lives.
 Reduction in product life cycle.
 Mass customization – Customer specific changes to
satisfy diverse requirements – High flexibility in the
manufacturing system.
 Reduction in manufacturing cost and delivery time.
 Increasing consumer awareness about quality. 4
Developments in computers
 Developments in microelectronics –
microprocessors, VLSI.
 Availability of computers with enhanced
memory and faster computing speed at
affordable prices.
 Development of graphics workstations with
powerful graphic facilities.
 Development of interactive graphics and
analysis software - Easy to use and powerful
5
CAD (Computer-Aided Design)

 CAD can be defined as the use of

computer systems to assist in the creation,
modification, analysis, or optimization of a
design.
 Computer assistance while a designer
converts his or her ideas and knowledge
into a mathematical and graphical model
represented in a computer.
6
CAD (Computer-Aided Design)

 CAD hardware: computer, graphics

display terminals, keyboards, other
peripheral equipment.
 CAD software: drawing, stress-strain
analysis of components, dynamic
response of mechanisms, heat-transfer
calculations, and numerical control part
programming.
7
CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing)

 CAM can be defined as the use of

computer systems to plan, manage, and
control the operations of manufacturing
plant through either direct or indirect
computer interface with the plant’s
production resources.

8
CAM Application

 Computer monitoring and control.

Computer is connected directly to the
manufacturing process e.g. NC/CNC
machines, chemical processing etc.
 Manufacturing support applications
Use of computers in process planning,
scheduling, shop floor control, work study,
tool design, quality control etc.

11
Numerical Control System

 Numerical control can be defined as a

form of programmable automation in
which the process is controlled by
numbers, letters and symbols.
 In NC, the numbers form a program of
instructions designed for a particular
workpart or job.

12
Application
 Drafting
 Assembly
 Inspection (CMM)
 Conventional machining process (ex: turning, milling,
drilling, boring, grinding)
 Non conventional machining process (ex: EDM, wire
cutting, laser cutting, AJM, WJM, plasma cutting)
 Welding process (ex: spot welding, flame cutting)
 Punching, pipe bending, sheet metal bending

Advantages of NC
 Reduced non productive time
 Reduced fixturing
 Reduced manufacturing lead time
 Greater manufacturing flexibility
 Improved quality control
 Reduced inventory
 Reduced floor space requirements
18
Disadvantages of NC

 Higher investment cost

 Higher maintenance cost
 Finding and/or training NC personel
