what is cad |
-it is efficient , high quality and cheaper than traditional methods -designers can generate tool paths for machines cutting cost and speed -allows designers to work in teams -can be used to make changes quickly and get feedback |
|
|
cad advantages |
- online 3d models cut costs due to not making prototypes -testing products can be done on computer -it reduces labour and materials -designers are not restricted on where they work -designs can be sent to cheap labour contries |
|
|
what can virtual modelling help with and what are the 3 types ? |
-lowers development costs and time -3d models can be changed easily -cae -computer aided engineering -rpt- rapid prototyping -rapid manufacturing |
|
|
what is CAE |
- utilises computer simulation to analyse designs -computer software models are good at understanding complex designs |
|
|
what is rpt |
-the main use is to make 3d prototypes to show clients -its expensive using rapid tooling through cnc so this is a cheaper quicker and faseter way |
|
|
what is rapid manufacturing |
-uses details from cad to make products -cost effective for low volume -can provide custom made componants |
