Basic Computer Knowledge
Engineering Design using CAD/CAM is the systematic process of creating, analyzing, and optimizing products with computer-aided tools. CAD is used to develop accurate 2D/3D models and drawings, while CAM converts these designs into machine-readable instructions for manufacturing. Together, they improve design quality, reduce errors, shorten development time, and enhance productivity in modern engineering industries.
