Computer-Aided Design, Computer-Aided Process Planning, and Computer-Aided Manufacturing

Anas Bin Aqeel, Uzair Khaleeq uz Zaman, Shahid Aziz et al. · 2023

Increasing demand in product development and its automating information-processing functions to support designs and manufacturing have explored new horizons for researchers and designers to control production processes directly. The production industry has been revolutionized for better product agility and flexible manufacturing. This chapter focuses on the basic understanding of computer-aided designing (CAD), computer-aided process planning (CAPP), and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems concerning their definition, classification, mathematical modeling, and software implementation. The development of these systems, along with their evolution, is detailed. Integrating CAD, CAPP, and CAM systems are explored through state-of-the-art industrial examples to link the individual systems. At the end of this chapter, essential aspects of CAD, CAPP, and CAM have been detailed as well.

Computer Aided Process Planning for 3D Printing

Hong‐Seok Park, Ngoc-Hien Tran · Journal of The Korean Society of Manufacturing Technology Engineers · 2015

Computer aided process planning (CAPP) keeps an important role between the design and manufacturing engineering processes. A CAPP system is a digital link between a computer aided design (CAD) model and manufacturing instructions. CAPP have been researched and applied in manufacturing filed, however, one manufacturing area where CAPP has not been extensively researched is rapid prototyping (RP). RP is a technique for creating directly a three dimensional CAD data into a physical prototype. RP enables to build physical models automatically and to use to reduce the time for the product development cycle as well as to improve the final quality of the designed product. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is one kind of RP that creates three-dimensional objects from CAD models. The paper presents a computer aided process planning system for printing medical products. 3D printing has been used to solve complex medical problems such as surgical instruments, bioengineered products, medical implants, and surgical guides.
