TO BE DISCUSSED What is Autocad Example of CAD software: Advantages of CAD Hardware for a CAD system How Auto. CAD is used? How To Start Components of Auto. CAD

WHAT IS AUTOCAD Means Computer Aided Design • Generally, it is the use of computers in design and drawing processes • Traditionally, technical drawing are made using manual drafting. It is often require a lot of effort and time consuming particularly for large complex drawing. • CAD is being used widely in modern practice. The ability of computer that enable engineers to produce, revise, store and transmit original drawings has made it very important • Back

Example of CAD software: ◦ ◦ ◦ Auto. CAD PRO/Engineer IDEAS UNIGRAPHICS Solid Works etc With these developments, it is now possible to do all the designs using CAD including two-dimensional drawings, solid modeling, complex engineering analysis, production and manufacturing Back

Advantages of CAD Easier Creation and Corrections Better Visualization of drawings Database of Drawing Aids Increased Accuracy Quick Design Analysis Simulation and Testing Back

Hardware for a CAD system The hardware for a CAD system consists of the physical devices used to support CAD software. The hardware system consist of: · Central Processing Unit (CPU) · Computer Operating System · Display Devices · Input Devices · Output Devices Back

How Auto. CAD is used? · Valuable and More Efficient in Modifying Drawings. Object can be moved, copied, rotated, erased, redrawn, etc. Editing in Auto. CAD is faster than in manual drawing. · Storage/database of Commonly used Object. Complex objects that are frequently used can be stored as symbol in the library. This would increase the productivity in the drafting work. Back
