CAD Cam Machinery

Ms. Barbara asked:

The Cad Cam machinery is based on CAD and CAM, the short of Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing respectively. As the term means, it simply means that the computer remote machines that can be used for the designing and the controlling of manufacturing processes purposes. The CAD and CAM machinery has its own value, it is so heavy and well equipped that it is used for the engineering and architectural purposes for drawing and sketching a really form of image making it more compatible for the technical usage. This can be explained easily that once the design is made by the CAD component, the design itself will control the machines involved in constructing that part, on the format.

Making it simple this can be explained in portions, let us first discus what does the CAD means and what machines do with CAD, as it is the short of computer aided designing, it directly signals that those machines are helpful in designing aspects, for the professionals, the engineers and for the architectural purposes. These machines are composed of special type of software and often hardware that includes the main geometry-authoring tool within the PLM process. As the CAD is the main type, according to its utility it has some different titles as well like the CADD and CAID, which defines as the computer aided designing and drafting, as the CAD is often termed as the drafting tool as well, and the computer aided industrial design and also the CAAD which means the computer aided architectural designs, these all titles tend to be similar but minor differences in the work manner have given it new names.

The new packages of CAD include the 2D vector based drafting system and the 3D parametric surface and solid design modelers. The CAD is a very useful tool for which it means a lot, it is not just a designing tool but it is high full-bodied designing tool. It is the power of computer designing sources that is merged with the heavy machinery to make it more compatible for the advanced functioning in the thermal processes, fluid flow analysis, stress analysis and shear analysis. The meaning of advanced designing is fulfilled with the use of CAD tool. It is simple to use and is highly effective, thus saving time and profiting the person who owe it. It is drastic software that is used in many purposes of work fields where time is less like CAD and CAM is used for the food processing as well to secure the speed of the production line. When it comes to the CAM, it simply means that it is helpful tools regarding manufacturing processes in definite time. It the tool that is aided by the computer in the robotic form so as to make the manufacturing purpose more enhanced. The CAM is used to make the procedure more easy and quick to make the yield in less time and less complex method.

The use of CAD and CAM together is very authentic and together they are used in different working areas to make the designing and manufacturing processes highly well suited. The CNC program is created with the CAM tool, the combination of CAD and CAM tools create a CNC program, the CAM usually comes wit the machine called lathe or chisel, the two if comes together costs very expensive that is more than $1 million. The two together offers great advantages because its accurate and focused functioning on the major and minor objects for correction, realigning and adjusting geometric positioning and aligning metric systems within it.

The CAD CAM machinery is used worldwide in schools and many organizations that create, invent or manufacture new products.

justin h asked:

I am building a CNC router. I have Autodesk Inventor to design all my parts and stuff. The only thing is there is no way to save it as a DXF file directly from Autodesk as far as i know. And i found a program but you have to pay for it. Im just wondering if there is a way to save a part as a DXF file that i dont know about.

Thanks and have a merry christmas

Buying round grill grates?

November 26th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Plasma Cutter
funracingdad asked:

I have a large tank. It is heavy plate tank from an 80 gallon air compressor. I’m wanting to convert it into a large upright gas smoker. I am wanting to set it up so I can install wire grates every three inches for items such as pork chops and ribs then remove grates for larger items. I need to know of a supplier that sells round grill grates by diameter. Replacement Weber grill grates is all I’ve found so far doing google searches. I’m looking for a company that sells a selection of sizes. I’ve just purchased the tank and havn’t touched it with the plasma cutter yet to know the inside diameter of the tank.
Thanks for your help!

How can I produce clear CAD drawings in a report?

November 26th, 2008 · 2 Comments

DXF File
pledger166 asked:

I’m typesetting my thesis in LaTeX, although this question would probably apply the same in MS Word.

I have numerous schematics etc that iv drawn in AutoCAD ‘06 and i want them to sit in the text, so far i have been going into a print preview (so i can hav the line thickness’s etc as i want them) then hittin print screen, or using snagit, to copy the image and then i edit it in paint, or jst crop it using snag it, but either way the image always looks a little but grainy.

LaTeX will allow pretty much any image format except .bmp, and i’ve tryed using teh .dwg or .dxf file directly, but no joy there.

Any suggestions?
