cad stands for computer aided design bet u new =]) and cam is as u can guess.... its generally used to build things before you do like to test structures to see if they are stable that king of thing

Actually a CAD program is used to design anything from a simple part to a complex assembly. It is also used to generate a solid model of the part in question. When you finish with the design work the CAM program will take the part and this is where you generate the tool paths for cutting the part on a CNC machine. Once the tool paths are completed the CAM program will then run the tool paths through a translater known as a post processor which interpolates the tool paths into actual code the CNC machine can understand. With the material loaded into the CNC machine (with aluminum, steel, plastic, etc) the machine operator then starts the process and when completed you will either have a completed part or a completed component of a more complex assembly.

What is the relationship between CAD and CNC?
CAD stands for Computer Aided Design. CNC stands for Computer Numeric Control, a synonym of CAM, which is Computer Aided Manufacture.
What is Batch Production and an example of how CAD CAM can aid this?
Batch production is the process of producing a set quantity of a set component, so not where you need 15,000 of a component, but a smaller set. This is desimilar to singular components which are better off produced by hand or a production line which is an ongoing process. Cad Cam can be used to quickly produce a design brief for a batch product, saving both time and monies.
Which universities in US are offering masters degree in cad-cam?
Eastern Michigan University offers a Masters in CAE (Computer Aided Engineering). Their website says it was formally known as the MS in CAD/CAM. I seen maybe 1 or 2 other schools offering a MS in CAE from my online search.
What is CAM and CAD?
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.

Are the CAD and CAM functions in the same package?
CAM is very dependant on the machine so this decides what CAD is used as solid works cant be used for say a 2D lazer cutter
Where could you find more information on a cad cam machine?
There is plenty of information available about CAD CAM machines. Check out a site such as cadcammachine , which will have information such as types of machines and what they are used for.
Relationship and differentiate between cad-cam and robotics?
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
