CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. CNC stands for Computer Numeric Control, a synonym of CAM, which is Computer Aided Manufacture.
Can't beat the Siemens!
NC is numerically controlled (hard wired) and CNC is computer numerically controlled.
in cnc we have to change the tool for different operations in vmc automatic change of tool is done
a dedicated computer control the machine tool in CNC and in DNC a no: of machines are controlled by a central computer.
CAM is Computer Aided Manufacturing, and is associated with CNC machines (Computer Numeric Control). CAD is Computer Aided Design, which is making drawings and plans using software on a computer instead of on paper. There is also CAE, Computer Aided Engineering, which is computer simulation of physical objects and events.
These are the relationships between CAD and other software and hardware. More CNC machines nowadays can get the drawings straight off cad to machine it.
the relationship between cad and cam is that one is called cad and the other is called cam ...... can't u see they both end differently
The relationship between CAD (Computer aided design) and CAM (computer aided manufacturing) is that both types of designing need to be done on a computer and operated by an engineer.
CNC ready machines are needed if you want your machines to be controlled by your computer systems. This enables you to machine parts directly from CAD designs.
These are the relationships between CAD and other software and hardware used in manufacturing. CAD - CAM -IMPORT 2D/3D CNC - IMPORT DXF The relationship between CAD and CAM is that you can import a CAD drawing straight the software to CAM software then imputing it to a CNC machine. More CNC machines nowadays can get the drawings straight off cad to machine it. RAPID PROTOTYPING - 3D MODELS Rapid prototyping takes virtual designs from CAD software, transforms them into thin virtual horizontal cross-sections and then creates each cross-section in physical space one after the next until the model is finished. SIMULATE - FUNCTION - STRESS - TEMPERATURE - SYSTEMS Computer software can be used to simulate many different projects. It can be used to see how much stress your product can take by simulating it on a computer program. This helps as it can help u improve your design if need be. You can also simulate the temperature that your product can withstand. Overall this simulation feature is good as it can show you many things in case you need to improve your product or it can withstand the amount of stress for example you want. CAM (COMPUTER AIDED MANUFACTURING) - MRP 2 The cad software makes the parts list/ billing operations to go into the CAM system in big factories. This helps by letting the system no what's in stock and what's not. After the system knows what is in stock and how long it will take for materials to come in. it can give an estimated time to manufacture all parts so the customer will have an idea how long it will take. If I more important customer comes in, it can be manually change to speed up the manufacturing of the product they are after.
Can't beat the Siemens!
A CAD platform is a program such as AutoCAD and a CAD sytem is a connection between CAD and CAM Products.
NC is numerically controlled (hard wired) and CNC is computer numerically controlled.

CAD stands for Computer Assisted Design. and as such is iused to design, draw & engineer everything from buildings to products. It is not directly associated with the actual construction phase.
CAD means CASH AGAINST DOCUMENTS & DP means Documents Against Payment CAD can be , CAD AT SIGHT, CAD 30 DAYS, CAD 60 DAYS BUT DP IS ONLY DP AT SIGHT. THE IMPORTER HAS TO PAY THE AMOUNT TO GET THE DOCUMENTS WITHOUT ANY TERMS IN DP
CNC denotes Computer Numerically Controlled. so, a cnc machine has all its functions ie: speed, axis movement, tooling selection ran by the computer. High speed is just that, so you can get a high speed CNC.
