Computer aided manufacturing (CAM) uses computer software and machinery to automate and facilitate manufacturing processes. CAM involves using computers to control machine tools and robots through numerical control and programming. The goal of CAM is to decrease errors, increase precision and uniformity of products, and make manufacturing processes more efficient by controlling production through automated techniques. This reduces labor costs and operating overheads.

1. Computer Aided
Manufacturing

2. Learning Outcomes
• What is Manufacturing
• What is CAM?
• Objective, Scope of CAM

3. What is Manufacturing
• Changing raw material into finish product by Flow of material, energy,
information, Processes that added value to Conceptual design into a real
product.
• Adding value.

4. Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM)
• Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is an application technology
that uses computer software and machinery to facilitate and
automate manufacturing processes.
• 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.
• Numerical control of machine tools
• Programming of robots

5. OBJECTIVE OF CAM
• The use of computers to guide the working of the industrial processes
is known as computer aided manufacturing or CAM.
• The purpose of CAM is to ensure that the error rate is decreased,
uniformity of products is high and precision in the processes can be
achieved.
• A CAM system is highly efficient because it can control the production
house through different automated techniques
• For example, the packaging of chips and related products is fully done
by automated plants from the potatoes farmer to the final product.
This has also reduced the labor cost and other operating overheads.
