CAD is the process of designing and drafting on a computer.

CAD is quicker and more accurate. It has largely replaced hand drafting.

The CAD SystemThe CAD System

Hardware

♦ Input devices, such as a keyboard and mouse

♦ Output devices, such as a monitor and a printer or plotter

Software

The computer is the main component. It has these subsystems:

Two-Dimensional (2D) CADTwo-Dimensional (2D) CAD

Can show only two dimensions of an object:

♦ Width and length

♦ Width and height

♦ Length and height

Frequently being replaced by systems that can do both 2D and 3D design.

Mechanical DesignMechanical Design

This engineering activity includes design of individual parts, assemblies, and entire devices.

Design often begins with computer 3D sketches that are then refined and modified, and then final details are added.

The final step may be a rendering.

CAD/CAMCAD/CAMThis process combines computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing.

Designs go directly from the CAD computer to another computer that controls the machine that makes the actual part.
