PREFACE
In the past fifteen years the interactive computer graphics and CAD/CAM
technology have been impacting the drafting, design, and manufacturing tools
significantly. The purpose of this course is to present CAD/CAM principles and tools in
generic and basic terms. These principles are supplemented with engineering and design
applications as well as problems. The course is also concerned with developing basic
abilities to utilize the existing CAD/CAM systems (in our case CREO PARAMETRIC 1.0
V5) in engineering practice. In engineering practice, CAD/CAM has been utilized in
different ways by different people.
Some of the applications of this technology are:
Production of drawings and design documents
Visualization tool for generating shaded images and animated displays
Engineering analysis of the geometric models (finite element analysis, kinematic

analysis, etc.)
Process planning and generation of NC part programmes.
SAFETY IN THE COMPUTER LAB
Always Remember: Safety
First!
These guidelines are important. It is possible to do serious damage in the

Computer Lab- both to yourself and to some expensive equipment. Please, follow
these guidelines!

Protecting Yourself
In the Computer Lab
Please, no running.
Periodically glance away from the screen. Staring into a computer monitor too
long will strain your eyes.
Let an instructor know if the colour scheme, font size, or other settings of your
computer are causing strain on your eyes. There are many built-in ways to adjust
these settings for comfort.
Avoid long sessions of typing as they may cause repetitive stress injuries to your
hands.
Maintain good posture to ease your back.
Keep the noise level to a minimum.
Be aware of the fire exits and the location of this rooms fire extinguishers.
When working inside of a computer case

Dont attempt to touch any live wires. The high voltage in this country can kill!
Dont open the computers power supply or monitor. There is nothing inside either
that can be repaired except by a professional, but there are many things that can
injure you.
Watch out for sharp metal edges!
Finally
Dont sit in front of the computer all day. It is not your friend, its just a tool! Get
out and exercise, chat with your mates, and have a life!
Page 3
Protecting the Equipment
In the Computer Lab

Please, no food or drink near the computers!
Always shut down the computer via Windows Start button
Use a surge protector to keep excess electric power from damaging your computer
Unplug the computer or turn off the wall socket when the machine is not in use.
Excessive heat can damage the computers. Please ensure that the room temperature
stays cool.
Motion can damage some computer components. Try to move laptop computers as
little as possible, especially when the hard drive or the floppy drive is whirring.
Note all serial numbers, in case of theft.
Always have at least two copies of all your important files, in case the worse
happens!
Especially in busy offices, the data on your computer is soon more
valuable than the hardware itself.

Turn off the computer when not in use. Like a car engine, parts wear out after a
certain mileage!
When working inside of a computer case

Beware of static electricity! The mild shock that would startle you can destroy the
sensitive electronics inside of a computer. Wear an anti-static strap to ensure that
you are grounded to the PC.
Do not touch any of the circuit boards directly! If you must add or remove them,
please handle them by their edges. They can be damaged, and the fingerprints that
you leave behind can cause short circuits
Especially, do not touch the gold or silver contacts where the component connects to
the motherboard!
Keep dust away from the computers. This can cause short circuits

A.COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN (CAD)

1. DESIGN PROCESS AND ROLE OF CAD
According to Shingly, the design process is an iterative procedure involving the

following six phases:
a). Recognition of need
b). Definition of problem
c). Synthesis
d). Analysis and optimization
e). Evaluation
f). Presentation
Phase 3 (synthesis) includes defining the design problem, design conceptualization,
searching for design information, modeling and simulation. Phase 4 (analysis and
optimization) may includes parameter study, finite element analysis, etc. Although
computers are being utilized more and more in the design process, their use is still limited to
the last four steps in the design and they are mainly used as a tool that helps the designer,
rather than as a replacement for the designer.
BENEFITS OF USING CAD:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
Increasing productivity
Improving quality of design
Improving communications
Creating data-base for manufacturing
GEOMETRIC MODELING
The term geometric modeling (or representation) means a method of describing

commonly used curves and surfaces in terms of values of a few parameters.
THREE TYPES OF GEOMETRIC MODELS
Wireframe Model
Surface Model
Solid Model
: connect 3D vertex points, sometimes ambiguous.

: define surface to form an object.
: various representation schemes are used to describe a solid object
Page 10
THE DESIGN PROCESS AND COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN
Design process
Fig-1.1 Role of computers in design process
2. SOLID MODELING
A solid modeling system is usually an interactive computer graphics system that is

intended to create true three-dimensional components and assemblies. Recent advances in
CAD software, computers, and graphical displays have made it possible to use solid
representations of components being considered in the design process. These solid models
can be employed innumerous ways.
ADVANTAGES OF SOLID MODELING
A realistic visual display: By producing a shaded visible surface image of the solid,
solid modeling allows a designer to see exactly what has been created. Easy to deal with
Page 11
different views: Once a part has been created, we have the ability to rotate, shade, section, or
produce almost any view required by a designer.
Single associated model database: The solid modeler provides the only database
suitable for all CAD operations. Almost all information needed for part generation is
contained in the solid model. The algorithm should be able to ensure that it represents
physically possible shape that is complete and unambiguous Applications. e.g., automatic
generation of a mesh for a finite element analysis.
3. REQUIREMENTS FOR MODELING ASSEMBLING
a). PART MODELING AND ANALYSIS:

The part analysis includes the material type, mass and inertial properties, functional
properties of the faces, etc.
b). HIERARCHICAL RELATIONSHIPS:
An assemble tree and assemble sequence must be given.
c). MATING CONDITIONS:
There are two methods for specifying mating conditions: Specify the location and
orientation of each part in the assembly, together with the representation of the part itself, by
providing a 4 x 4 homogeneous transformation matrix. (i.e., transformation from MCS to
WCS)Specify the spatial relationships between its individual parts as mating conditions. For
example, a mating condition can consist of planar faces butting up against one another or
requiring centerlines of individual parts to be collinear.
4. CADCAE/CAM DATA EXCHANGE
Computer databases are now replacing paper blueprints in defining product geometry
and non-geometry for all phases of product design, analysis, and manufacturing. It becomes
increasingly important to find effective procedures for transferring data among
CAD/CAE/CAM systems.
The need to exchange modeling data is directly motivated by the need to integrate
and automate the design and manufacturing process to obtain the maximum benefits from
CAD/CAE/CAM systems.
FOUR TYPES OF MODELING DATA TO BE TRANSFERRED:
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
Shape
Non shape
Design
Manufacturing
Page 12
(1) Shape data consists of both geometrical and topological information as well as part
features. Entity attributes such as font, color, and layer as well as annotation is considered
part of the entity geometrical information. Topological information applies only to products
described via solid modeling. Features allow high-level concept communication about parts.
Examples are hole, flange, web, pocket, chamfer, etc.
(2) Non shape data includes graphics data such as shaded images, and model global data as
measuring units of the database and the resolution of storing the database numerical values.
(3) Design data has to do with the information that designers generate from geometric
models for analysis purposes. e.g., mass property and finite element mesh data.
(4) Manufacturing data consists of information such as tooling, NC tool paths, tolerance,
process planning, tool design, and bill of materials.
Commonly Used CAD Data Exchange Format IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange
Specification) PDES (Product Data Exchange Using STEP) IGES is focused on CAD-toCAD exchange where primarily shape and non-shape data were to be transferred from one
system to another. PDES is previous called Product Data Exchange Standard. It is for the
exchange of complete product descriptions which covers the four types of modeling data
(i.e., shape, non-shape, design and manufacturing).Other data exchange interfaces include:
STL, Neutral, SET, ECAD, VDA, STEP, PDGS, Creo Parametric 1.0, Render, CGM,
VRML, PATRAN, TIFF, etc.
5. CREO PARAMETRIC 1.0 SOFTWARE OVERVIEW
Creo Parametric 1.0 is a computer-aided design (CAD) system for mechanical

assembly, part modeling, and drawing production. Developed with STREAM technology,
Creo Parametric 1.0 is designed to increase software performance with an interface that
ensures maximized user productivity and return on investment. Creo Parametric 1.0
STREAM technology boosts essential CAD user productivity by capturing engineers' solid
modeling design intentions through inference logic and decision-management concepts.
STREAM technology makes Creo Parametric 1.0 easy to learn, easy to use, and more
productive than any other mid-range CAD system on the market.
THE PART ENVIRONMENT:
The Creo Parametric 1.0 part modeling environment allows you to construct 3-D
solid models with true features. The part modeling process starts with a base feature, such as
a block or cylinder, which you build upon with part features to create a part model. Part
features include protrusions and cutouts (extruded, revolved, swept, and lofted), holes, ribs,
thin-walled solids, rounds, draft angles, and chamfers. You can also construct rectangular
and circular feature patterns and mirror copies. When you design parts in Solid Works, all
Page 13
geometry is created in the context of constructing features. The software keeps track of
construction elements for you, making them available when you edit the feature but hiding
them from view while you work on other parts of the design. You can also add your own
construction geometry, such as extruded, lofted, and swept surfaces, intersection curves,
projected curves, and intersection points.
THE ASSEMBLY ENVIRONMENT:
Creo Parametric 1.0 can manage large, complex assemblies containing many parts
and sub-assemblies. The Assembly environment contains commands for fitting parts
together with natural assembly techniques such as mate and aligns. Creo Parametric 1.0
accommodates the fact that most parts are designed in the context of an assembly. To
support this workflow, Creo Parametric 1.0 provides tight integration with the part modeling
environment, visualization tools, data management tools, and part-to-part relationship
management tools. Creo Parametric 1.0 makes it easy to manage assembly data from the
earliest phases of project planning, through revision cycles, manufacturing, project
maintenance, and archival.
THE DRAFT ENVIRONMENT:
Creo Parametric 1.0 provides a separate drafting environment for producing

engineering drawings directly from 3-D part or assembly models. Creo Parametric 1.0
drawings are associated with the 3-D model, so that the drawing reflects changes in the
model as the design progresses. These model-to-drawing links minimize drawing
maintenance in response to engineering changes, so that you can easily keep drawings up-todate with the part or assembly model. Hidden line representations are properties of the
drawing view they do not affect your view of the solid model in the Part or Assembly
environments. You can create drawings that display various views, sections, details,
dimensions, notes, and annotations. You can also add feature control frames, datum frames,
weld symbols, and surface texture symbols to your drawings. Ensuring that the dimensions
and annotations on your drawings conform to your companys standards or international
standards are easy as in Microsoft Office products, you can capture these settings in styles
and templates.

TERMINOLOGY:
Moving to 3D requires some new terminology. The CREO PARAMETRIC 1.0

software employs many terms that you will become familiar with through using the product.
Many are terms that you will recognize from design and manufacturing such as cuts and
bosses.
FEATURE:
All cuts, bosses, planes and sketches that you create are considered Features.
Sketched features are those based on sketches (boss and cut), applied features are based on
edges or faces (fillet).
GRAPHICS TOOLBAR:
Located at the top of the graphics area, the in Graphics toolbar contains commonly
used tools and filters for the graphics area display. You can customize the tools and filters
displayed in the In Graphics toolbar.
Fig-1.2 Graphics toolbar
QUICK ACCESS TOOLBAR:
The Quick Access toolbar is located at the top of the interface. It contains a
commonly used set of commands that are independent of the tab currently displayed in the
ribbon. These commands are available regardless of the specific mode or tab in which you
are working. You can customize the Quick Access toolbar to add additional commands.
Fig-1.3 Quick Access toolbar
RIBBON:
A context-sensitive menu across the top of the interface that contains the majority of
the commands you use in Creo Parametric 1.0 Parametric. The ribbon arranges commands
into logical tasks through tabs and groups
Page 15
Fig-1.4 Ribbon
PLANE:
Planes are flat and infinite. They are represented on the screen with visible edges.
They are used as the primary sketch surface for creating boss and cut features.
Fig-1.5 Default Datums
PARALLEL PLANE:
Creates a reference plane parallel to a part face or reference plane at an offset value
you define. You can define the offset value using the cursor or by typing a value in the
Distance box on the ribbon bar.
SKETCH:
In the Creo Parametric 1.0 system, the name used to describe a 2D profile is sketch.
Sketches are created on flat faces and planes within the model. They are generally used as
the basis for bosses and cuts, although they can exist independently.
EXTRUSION BOSS/ BASE:
Although there are many ways to create features and shape the solid, for this lesson,
only extrusions will be discussed. An extrusion will extend a profile along a path normal to
the profile plane for some distance. The movement along that path becomes the solid model.
Page 16
Fig-1.6 Extrusion of solid from Base
EXTRUDED CUTOUT:
A Cut is used to remove material from the model. This is the opposite of the boss.
Like the boss, cuts begin as 2D sketches and remove material by extrusion, revolution, or
other methods.
Fig-1.7 Extrusion of solid from Base
REVOLVED BOSS/ BASE:
Constructs a protrusion by revolving a profile

a) Create a sketch that contains one or more profiles and a centerline, line, or edge to
use as the axis around which the feature revolves.
b) Click one of the following revolve tools:
i).
Revolved Boss/Base on the Features toolbar, or Insert, Boss/Base,
ii).
Revolve Revolved Surface on the Surfaces toolbar, or Insert, Surface,
Revolve
Page 17
c) In the Property Manager, set the options.

d) Click OK.
Fig-1.8 Revolved object
LOFTED BOSS/ BASE:
Constructs a protrusion by fitting through a series of cross sections. You can define
the cross sections using profiles drawn within the command, sketches, or edges of existing
features. The cross sections must be closed, planar elements
Fig-1.9 Extrusion of solid from Lofted Boss
VIEW OPTIONS:
Creo Parametric 1.0 gives you the option of representing your solid models in one of
several different ways. Examples of each are shown in the illustration below
Page 18
Fig-1.10 View Options
CREATION OF BASIC SOLID FEATURES:
Extrude: Extension in third axis of the profile
Fig-1.11 Extrude of Solid from the sketch
Revolve: Revolve the profile about axis of symmetry

Sweep: Extrusion of a cross section along a path
Fig-1.13 Sweep extrusion of a cross section along a path
Blend / Loft : Blending of different cross sections along a path
Fig-1.14 Extrude of Solid using blend
EDITING & ENGINEERING FEATURES IN PART MODELING
a) Round : Modify the sharp edge to curved edge

b) Chamfer : Modify the sharp edge to flat edge
c) Shell: Removes a surface or surfaces from the solid then hollows out the inside of
the solid, leaving a shell of a specified wall thickness.
d) Rib : Special type of protrusion to create a thin fin or web
e) Cut : Remove the undesirable portion from the basic part
f) Hole : Remove cylindrical portion from the basic part
g) Pattern: Create instances of the selected feature by varying some specified
dimensions
CHAMFER
EDGE CHAMFER:
Add or remove material by creating a beveled surface on an edge or between surfaces.
CUT:
Use an Extrude to remove material from the part. To meet our design requirements, the
depth of the extrude will use a different depth type on each side of the sketch plane.
Page 20
Fig-1.15 Removal of undesirable portion from the basic part using CUT
HOLE:
Use the Hole tool to create a coaxial hole on the axis of the axle hub. The hole will be diameter and
have a blind depth. The car axel will be inserted into the hole when assembled.
Fig-1.16 Removal of cylindrical portion from the basic part using HOLE
PATTERN:
The Pattern tool enables you to quickly duplicate a feature within your model. In this
exercise, you will learn to pattern about an axis using the Axis type pattern. You will also
use the Reference pattern to create patterns where a feature follows the pattern of a feature it
references.
Fig-1.17 Creation of instances of the selected feature using PATTERN
Page 21
SETTING YOUR WORKING DIRECTORY:
Creo Parametric 1.0 Parametric starts in a start-in folder on your computer, by

default; this is your working directory. A working directory is the folder you open files from
and save files to. The working directory is selected before every session. When you exit
Creo Parametric 1.0 Parametric, it does not remember the working directory for the next
session.
Open Files - The File Open dialog box looks to the working directory.
Save Files - Files are saved to the folder they were opened from, this is not always the
working directory.

INTRODUCTION TO CAM
The CAM process is a subset of the manufacturing process. Computer-aided
manufacturing (CAM) is defined as the effective use computer technology in
manufacturing planning and control. CAM is most closely associated with functions
in manufacturing engineering, such as process and production planning, machining,
scheduling and numeric control part programming. The implementation of CAM
process is shown in figure.

the CAM activities. Various CAM activities may require various CAD information.
Interface algorithms are usually utilized to extract such information from CAD
Page 51
databases. In case of process planning, features that are utilized in manufacturing

(e.g., holes, slots, etc.) must be recognized to enable efficient planning of
manufacturing. NC programme, along with ordering tools and fixtures, result from
process planning. Once parts are produced, CAD software can be used to inspect
them. This is achieved by superposing an image of the real part with a master image
stored in its model database. After passing inspection, CAM software can be utilized
to instruct robot systems to assemble the parts to produce the final product.
