In older days people used drafter and boards in order to make engineering drawings. This was the spark for the 'Computer aided design. Since time was changing and the computer era begun people started to think why can't we implement the drafter and board using computer software? This question lead to the development of CAD.
The CAD-CAM is software that provides an interface that helps people to design what they like in 2D as well as 3D transformation. In order to work with this CAD-CAM a person needs to have a great and clear idea of what he or she is going to do. If a person is not going to have a clear idea of what he or she is going to design then the out come will not meet the expectation. People who like to work with the cam cad need to attend programs on how to use it.
Using this CAD-CAM we can design plan for house. What is normally called the base plan is designed using this software. This has greatly helped the civil people because they no more have to use the paper and board to create house and buildings. Apart from these 2D drawings even a miniature or prototype of a house can be created.
In case of mechanical parts, the design of all parts are made using the cad cam as they provide great degree of accuracy and we can also check there working using the cam application. The CAD-CAM finds its main application in designing and drawings. Its become a lab for the mechanical department and also very useful in case of civil engineering. Apart from this the CAD-CAM can also be used for making any geometric structures and any person can make use of this for personal use.
Thus CAD-CAM finds its application in day-to-day life as all the buildings, parts of automobile and other stuff depends on it. It has mainly helped in reducing the time and cost of making house plans and can changes can be made easily.
