Components of CAD/CAM/CAE
Systems
Hardware Components
Graphic device is composed of a display
processing unit, a display device, and one or
more input devices
Input devices:
Mouse
Space ball
Keyboard
Output Devices:
Plotters
Color laser printers
Software Components
CAD software allows the designer to
create and manipulate a shape
interactively and store it
CAM software plans, manages and
controls the operations of a
manufacturing site
CAE software analyzes design
geometry, allowing designer to study
product behavior

Material Removal Processes
Machining:
Material removed from the surface of the workpart
by means of sharp cutting tools.
○ Examples are turning, milling, drilling, etc.
turning milling

Material Removal Processes
Machining
Relative motion between the
cutting tool and the workpiece
develops a cutting action.
Cutting action involves shear
deformation of work material to
form a chip.
As chip is removed, a new
surface is exposed.

Machining
Turning
A single point cutting tool removes material
from a rotating workpiece to form a
cylindrical shape.
Machining
Drilling
Used to create a round hole, usually by
means of a rotating tool (drill bit) that has
two cutting edges.
Machining
Milling
Rotating multiple-cutting-edge tool is moved
slowly relative to work to generate plane or
straight surface.
There are two forms of milling;
○ Peripheral milling
○ Face milling

Machining
Classification of the cutting tools
Single-Point Tools:
○ One cutting edge
○ Turning uses single point tools
○ Point is usually rounded to form a nose radius
Multiple Cutting Edge Tools:
○ More than one cutting edge
○ Motion relative to work usually achieved by
rotating
○ Drilling and milling use rotating multiple cutting
edge tools.
