Introduction
Computer-aided design is essentially based on a versatile and powerful technique called computer
graphics, which basically means the criterion and manipulation of pictures on a display device with the
aid of a computer. Computer graphics originated at the Massachusetts institute of technology (MIT) in 1950
when the first computer-driven display, linked to a Whirlwind 1computer, and was used to generate some
pictures. The first important step forward in computer graphics came in 1963 when a system called
SKETCHPAD was demonstrated at the Lincoln Laboratory of MIT. This system consists of a cathode ray tube
(CRT) driven by TX2 computer. The CRT had a keyboard and a light pen. Pictures could be drawn on the
screen and then manipulated interactively by the user via the light pen.
This demonstration clearly showed that the CRT could potentially be used as a designer’s electronic drawing
board with common graphic operations such as scaling, translation, rotation, animation and simulation
automatically performed at the ‘push of a button’. At that time, these systems were very expensive; therefore
they were adopted only in such major industries as the aircraft and automotive industries where their use in
design justified the high capital costs. Another crucial factor preventing computer graphics from being
generally applied to engineering industries was that there was a lock of appropriate graphics and application
software to run on these systems. However, a computer-based design system was clearly emerging. Since
these pioneering developments in computer graphics, which had captured the imagination of the engineering
industry all over the world, new and improved hardware, which is faster in processing speed, larger
in memory, cheaper in cost and smaller in size, have become widely available.
Sophisticated software techniques and packages have also been gradually developed. Consequently, the
application of CAD in industry has been growing rapidly. Initially CAD systems primarily were
automated righting stations in which computer controlled plotters produced engineering drawings. The
system were later linked to graphic display terminals where geometric model describing part dimensions
were created, and the resulting database in the computer was then used to produce drawings. Nowadays, CAD
systems can do much more than mere righting. Some systems have analytical capabilities that allow parts to
be evaluated with t e c h n i q u e s s u c h a s t h e f i n i t e e l e m e n t m e t h o d . There a r e a l s o
k i n e m a t i c s a n a l y s i s programs that enable the motion of mechanism to be studied. In addition, CAD
system includes testing techniques to perform model analysis on structures, and to evaluate their response to
pinpoint any possible defects.
Computer Aided Design is the process of developing and using computer assisted design tools in the design
process. The advent of computers has contributed to significant advance in calculation, data handling and
utilization applications. The ability to use the computers in these application a r e a s e n h a n c e s t h e
c a p a b i l i t y o f the d e s i g n team s i g n i f i c a n t l y . Drafting a n d geometric modeling play significant
roles in CAD. The module therefore concentrates on the general design process with specific consideration to
drafting and geometric modeling. Three different C A D s y s t e m s are r e f e r r e d t o i n t h e m o d u l e .

INTRODUCTION
CAD/CAM is the term which means Computer Aided Design and Computer
Aided Manufacturing. It is the technology concerned with the use of digital computers to
perform certain functions in design and production.
DEFINITION OF CAD:
Computer Aided Design can be defined as the use of computer system to assist
in creation. Modification analysis (or) optimization of a design.
DEFINITION OF CAM:
Computer Aided Manufacturing can be defined as the use of the computer
system to plan, manage and control operation of manufacturing plan through direct (or) indirect
computer interface with the plan production resources.
1. INTRODUCTION TO AUTOCAD
AutoCAD is drafting/modeling software used all over the world by almost all
manufacturing companies. It is variable software which can be used in all engineering divisions.
It is a drafting version popularly known to everyone associated with mechanical engineering.
The AutoCAD drawing enables the designer to communicate his ideas to the outside of
department easily. Conversion of AutoCAD files to other software is also using drawing
exchange formula.
1.1 BASIC FACILITIES IN AUTOCAD
LIMITS:
It is normally necessary to specify the limits of the drawing that one is about to use. The actual
size of drawing would have to be specified using limit command. Limits establishes the size of
the drawing and the associated drawing guide such as grids, rulers etc……in proper format.
However, limits check option is kept on, and then AutoCAD would not allow you to specify any
point beyond the limits.
DIMENSIONING:
After creating the various views of the model or after preparing the drawing it is necessary to add
dimensions at the appropriate places. AutoCAD provides semi automatic dimensions. As a result
once dimensions is created. AutoCAD gives great control over the way dimensions may appear
in the drawing. The dimension familiars are as follows…
Linear
Diameter
Radial
Angular
Ordinate
Leader
Aligned
PLOT DRAWINGS:
Once you have completed a drawing you can plot the drawing on paper or create a file for use
with another application. In either case, you select the plot settings.
2. INTRODUCTION TO PRO/E
Pro/ENGINEER wildfire is the leading product development solution for any
manufacturing industry. The software is developed and supported by the Parametric Technology
Corporation (PTC), based in United States. Pro/ENGINEER wildfire is unique software
developed for the manufacturing industry to meet the competing demands of engineering
productivity, faster time to market, and improved product quality.
Pro/ENGINEER wildfire is a comprehensive product development solution for
concept and industrial design, detailed design, simulation and analysis, mold/tool/die design,
and NC tool path creation .with the powerful tools of Pro/ENGINEER ,we will be able to
capture the design of any complex model, by incorporating intelligence into design.
Features are the basic building blocks required to create an object. Pro/ENGINEER
wild fire models are based on a series of features. Each future builds upon the previous feature,
to create the model (only one single feature can be modified at a time). Each feature may appear
simple, individually, but collectively forms a complex part and assemblies. The idea behind
feature based modeling is that the designer constructs an object, composed of individual
features that describe the manner in which he geometry support the object, if its dimensions
change. The first feature called the base future.
The parent child relationship is a powerful way to capture our design intent in a
model. The relationship naturally occurs among features, during the modeling process. When
we create a new feature, the existing features that are referenced, become parent to the new
features.
Pro/ENGINEER wild fire drawings are model centric. This means that
Pro/ENGINEER models that are represented in assembly or drawings are associative. If
changes are made in one module, these will automatically get updated in the referenced module.
3. INTRODUCTION TO ANSYS
ANSYS is a powerful general purpose finite element modeling package to numerically solve a
wide variety of mechanical, structural and non-structural problems. These problems include:
static/dynamic structural analysis (both linear and non-linear), heat transfer and fluid problems,
as well as acoustic and electro-magnetic problems.
A typical ANSYS analysis has three distinct steps:
Build the model.
Apply loads and obtain the solution.
Review the results.
Step 3: Preprocessor
Element type – select type of element from the table and the required options
Real constants – give the details such as thickness, areas, moment of inertia, etc.
Step 4: Modeling – create the required geometry such as nodes elements, area, volume by
using the appropriate options.
Step 5: Generate – Elements/ nodes using Mesh Tool if necessary (in 2D and 3D problems)
4. INTRODUCTION TO CAM
Most machines need control systems to operate. There are many kinds of control systems,
for example, manual control, automatic control, computer control or remote control. For the
convenience of mass production, machines need to repeat precise, speedy and automatic actions
continuously. These machines may use mechanical, pneumatic and electrical systems to control.
As technology advances, electronic and computer technologies have been applied to a lot of
production machines to reduce the production time and increase both the quality and efficiency.
So, modern factories usually use numerical control machines, simply called NC machines. And
an NC machine that comes along with a computer is called a computer control numerical
machine, simply CNC machine.
A CNC machine uses digital information to control the movements of tools and parts, for
example, the spinning speed, the cutting speed, the moving direction of tools etc. So, we can
change quickly the production procedures simply by modifying the information or program In
the computer.
The production method that requires a computer to control the machines is called a computer
aided manufacturing, simply called CAM. CAM is closely related to the computer-aided design
(CAD) because the output information about the products from the CAD can assist the
composing of production program. Tests and productions can start immediately. This simplifies
the procedures from the designing to manufacturing of the product
4.1 G-codes
G-Code, or preparatory code or function, are functions in the Numerical control programming
language. The G-codes are the codes that position the tool and do the actual work, as opposed to
M-codes, that manages the machine; T for tool-related codes. S and F are tool-Speed and tool-
Feed, and finally D-codes for tool compensation. The programming language of Numerical
Control (NC) is sometimes informally called G-code. But in actuality, G-codes are only a part of
the NC-programming language that controls NC and CNC machine tools.
A basic list of `G' operation codes is given below. These direct motion of the tool.
