CAD can be implemented in FMS in several ways: (1) Through a library of parts that stores detailed part information like geometry and attributes to aid designers working with a large selection of potential components. Developing and maintaining this library is tedious but makes the system more efficient. (2) Using group technology to categorize similar parts stored in bins based on a wide range of parameters to enable computerization and shorter lead times. (3) Ensuring CAD models contain sufficient intelligence through geometry, attributes, and design cycle data to support the multi-step procedure of adding a new part to the FMS production process. As new parts are added, CAM also requires flexibility to handle changes.

CAD Considerations In FMS CAM Considerations In FMS Implementation of CAD in following ways: (a) Library of Parts - Parts are stored with detailed information including geometry and attributes - Aids the product designer who is faced with a very large selection of potential components when creating a design - Custom developing a product will require assistance of library - It must be searchable and provide supportive information to designer when required - Designing, populating and maintaining a library of parts data base is a tedious task but when ready makes system efficient (b) Group Technology - Parts in a bin can be grouped and placed as per their similarity with the help of library of parts - Wide range of parameters can be used for grouping mixed parts - Computerization and shorter lead time is possible - Proves an important step in automation (c) Special CAD requirements for FMS data preparation The usefulness of a model created in CAD is directly proportional to its intelligence content like: (i) Geometry (ii) Attributes (iii) Design Cycle Data Preparation A new part to the FMS is a multistep procedure which includes considerations of requirements for machining, raw material, material handling and inspection With addition of every new part like CAD, CAM also requires same level of control and flexibility to handle changes Offline NC, CNC & robot programming and simulation of tool path generation or robotic arm movement is possible Department of Mechanical Engineering – M. Tech (CAD/CAM) Submitted by: Jyotiraman De Roll no.-5
