Whois & Analysis for industryarena.com

Computer-aided design (CAD) is the use of computer systems (or) to aid in the creation, modification, analysis, or optimization of a design.

CAD software is used to increase the productivity of the designer, improve the quality of design, improve communications through documentation, and to create a database for manufacturing.

CAD output is often in the form of electronic files for print, machining, or other manufacturing operations.

The term CADD (for Computer Aided Design and Drafting) is also used.

Computer numerical control (CNC) is the automation of machine tools by means of computers executing pre-programmed sequences of machine control commands.

This is in contrast to machines that are manually controlled by hand wheels or levers, or mechanically automated by cams alone.

Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is the use of software to control machine tools and related ones in the manufacturing of workpieces.

This is not the only definition for CAM, but it is the most common; CAM may also refer to the use of a computer to assist in all operations of a manufacturing plant, including planning, management, transportation and storage.

Its primary purpose is to create a faster production process and components and tooling with more precise dimensions and material consistency, which in some cases, uses only the required amount of raw material (thus minimizing waste), while simultaneously reducing energy consumption.

Business-to-business (B2B) refers to a situation where one business makes a commercial transaction with another.

This typically occurs when:

Metalworking is the process of working with metals to create individual parts, assemblies, or large-scale structures.

The term covers a wide range of work from large ships and bridges to precise engine parts and delicate jewelry.

It therefore includes a correspondingly wide range of skills, processes, and tools.
