This presentation covers the following topics:
-Uses and importance of computers in the manufacturing sector
-Uses of Computer Aided Designing(CAD)
-Uses of Computer Aided Manufacturing(CAM)
-Uses of Computer Integrated Manufacturing(CIM)
-Uses internet in the manufacturing sector
2. The high demand for
manufactured products and the
requirement of on time delivery
of quality product has
increased the use of computers
in the manufacturing sector in
recent years.
MISSION
STATEMENT
WHY COMPUTERS IN
THE
MANUFACTURING
SECTOR?
3. ● Industrial computers are often used on the
factory floor, where they control processes and
production.
● From controlling manufacturing equipment, to
design new goods, computers can do many
operations.
● An industrial computer may be used to monitor
processes, acquiring and analysing data, etc.
HOW DO
COMPUTERS HELP
US IN
MANUFACTURING?
5. WHAT IS
CAD?
Computer aided design
is the use of creation,
modification, or
optimization of a
design of a industrial
good.
6. USES OF CAD
● Computer-aided design software (CAD) is used to create models
representing the design of a product.
● Many companies link CAD systems to the manufacturing process through
computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) systems that not only determine
the steps needed to produce components but also instruct machines to do
the necessary work.
● CAD systems permit companies to design and manufacture goods faster,
more efficiently, and at a lower cost, and they’re also effective in helping
firms monitor and improve quality.
● CAD/CAM technology is used in many industries, including the auto
industry, electronics, and clothing.
8. SIGNIFANCE
OF CAM
To computer integrated
(CIM) or computer aided
manufacturing (CAM)
improve efficiency, quality
and reduce cost , lead
time and process time of
the product.
9. HOW CAM WORKS WITH
CAD
● A computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software system
determines the steps needed to produce the component and
instructs the machines that do the work.
● Because CAD and CAM programs can “talk” with each other,
companies can build components that satisfy exactly the
requirements set by the computer-generated model.
● CAD/CAM systems permit companies to design and
manufacture goods faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost,
and they’re also effective in helping firms monitor and improve
quality.
10. SOME USES OF
CAM
Machine shops may be part of a manufacturing
or engineering facility. In the auto industry,
design engineers rely on the use of CAM to
create computer models of new auto designs.
computer aided manufacturing results in
cost savings by reducing the need for
increased quantities of materials used in
processing and also a reduction in waste.
one of the most significant uses is to
ensure machine and equipment safety
12. UNDERSTANDING CIM
● Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is
the manufacturing approach of using computers to control
entire production process. This integration allows individual
processes to exchange information with each part
● CIM relies of closed-loop control processes, based on real-
time input from sensors. It is also known as flexible design
and manufacturing.
● CIM is most useful where a high level of ICT is used in the
company or facility, such as CAD/CAM systems,
the availability of process planning and its data.
13. USES OF CIM
used
in automotive, aviation,
space, and ship building
industries.
used to perform repetitive
tasks that are also hard or
dangerous for human
workers to perform
CIM systems expand the
capabilities of CAD/CAM
automating and
integrating all aspects of
a company’s operations
they handle such functions
as order entry, inventory
control, warehousing, and
shipping
revolutionizing the
production process
