Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing

Broad coverage of digital product creation, from design to manufacture and process optimization

This book addresses the need to provide up-to-date coverage of current CAD/CAM usage and implementation. It covers, in one source, the entire design-to-manufacture process, reflecting the industry trend to further integrate CAD and CAM into a single, unified process. It also updates the computer aided design theory and methods in modern manufacturing systems and examines the most advanced computer-aided tools used in digital manufacturing.

Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing consists of three parts. The first part on Computer Aided Design (CAD) offers the chapters on Computer Aided Geometric Modelling; Knowledge-Based Engineering; Platform Technologies; Computer Aided Reverse Engineering; and Computer Aided Machine Design. The second part on Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) covers Group Technology and Cellular Manufacturing; Computer Aided Fixture Design; Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM); Simulation of Manufacturing Processes; and Computer Aided Design of Tools, Dies, and Moulds (TDMs). The final part includes the chapters on Digital Manufacturing (DM); Direct and Additive Manufacturing and Design for Sustainability (D4S). The book is also featured for

• being uniquely structured to classify and align engineering disciplines and computer aided technologies from the perspective of the design needs in whole product life cycles,
• utilizing a comprehensive Solidworks package (add-ins, toolbox, and library) to showcase the most critical functionalities of modern computer aided tools, and
• presenting real-world design projects and case studies so that readers can gain CAD and CAM problem-solving skills upon the CAD/CAM theory.

Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering, and industrial engineering. It can also be used as a technical reference for researchers and engineers in mechanical and manufacturing engineering or computer-aided technologies.
