CAD can be defined as the use of computer systems to perform certain functions in the design process. • CAM is the use of computer systems to plan, manage and control the operations of manufacturing plant through either direct or indirect computer interface with the plant’s production resources. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
The Product Cycle and CAD/CAM • In order to establish the scope and definition of CAD/CAM in an engineering environment and identify existing and future related tools, a study of a typical product cycle is necessary. The following Figure shows a flowchart of such a cycle. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Typical Product Life Cycle Production planning Design and procurement of new tools Order materials NC, CNC, DNC programming The Design Process Synthesis Design definitions, specifications, and requirements Collecting relevant design information and feasibility study Design needs Analysis The CAD Process Design modeling and simulation Design conceptualization Design documentation and communication Design evaluation Design optimization Design analysis The Manufacturing Process The CAM Process Process planning Production Quality control Packaging Shipping Marketing DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
The product begins with a need which is identified based on customers' and markets' demands. • The product goes through two main processes from the idea conceptualization to the finished product: • The design process. • The manufacturing process. The main sub-processes that constitute the design process are: • Synthesis. • Analysis. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
The phases in design or General design procedure defined by Shingley model DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
SHIGHELY Model Step 1 Recognition of Need • Problems in the existing products or potential for new products in the market have to be identified. Step 2 Definition of problem • The problem in the existing products or specification of the new product is specified as “Design Brief”. • It includes the specification of physical and functional characteristics, cost, quality, performance requirements etc DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Step 3 Synthesis • In this stage the designer develops number of designs to meet the requirement of design brief. Step 4 Analysis and optimization • Each design from the synthesis stage is analyzed and the optimum one is selected. • Based on the analysis, improvements are made and redesigned. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Step 5 Evaluation In this stage, optimized design from the previous stage is checked for all specifications mentioned in the “Design Brief”. • Performance • Quality • Reliability • And other aspects of product Step 6 Presentation • After the product design passing through the evaluation stages, drawings, diagrams, materials specification, assembly lists, bill of materials etc. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Design process DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Morphology of design • Morphology design refers the study of the chronological structure of design projects. It is defined by seven phases and their sub steps. Phase 1 Feasibility study / Conceptual design • To determine whether the need is original and valid. Phase 2 Preliminary design / Embodiment design • A surviving solution is tentatively accepted for further examination • Synthesis are initiated the major design parameters must be controlled • To maintained tolerances • Need customer feedback • testing DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Morphology of design Phase 3 Detailed design • To prepare major layout • Deciding various dimensions of components • Preparing specification • Testing the prototype and redesign Phase 4 Planning the production process • To prepare the detailed process planning sheets • Design of tool and fixture • Planning for the quality control system • Planning for the production personnel • Planning for the production control • Planning for the information flow feedback system DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Morphology of design Phase V Planning for distribution • After the production of products, the products have to be distributed • Design the packaging of the product • Planning the ware housing system • Planning for promotional activity Phase VI Planning for consumption • Design for maintenance • Design for reliability • Design for safety • Design for convenience use • Design for economic operation DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Morphology of design Phase VII Planning for Retirement • Design to reduce the rate • Design for the physical life to match • Design the product so that reusable materials DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Pahl and Beitz Model • Classification of Task • Conceptual Design • Emodiment design • Detail design Step 1 Classification of task • This phase involves the collection of information about the design requirements and the constraints on the design as well as describing the as design specification DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Step 2 Conceptual design • This phase involves the establishment of function to be included in the design, and identification and development of suitable solution Step 3 Emodiment design • In this phase, the conceptual solution is developed in more detail, problems are resolved and weak aspects are eliminated Step 4 Detailed design • In this phase, dimensions, tolerances, materials and form of each individual components of the design are specified in detail which will be useful or manufacturing DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Ohsuga Model • Ohsuga describes the design as a series of stages progressing from requirements through the conceptual design and preliminary design to detail design. • If the proposal is unsuitable, then it is remodified. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Earle Model The step in the design process prepared by Earle • Problem Identification can be one of the following two general types • Identification of design need – It is the beginning point of the design process • Identification of design criteria – It is the part of problem identification where the designer conducts an in depth investigation of specification which must be met by a new design. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Problem Identification • Problem statement – It is written to begin the thinking process. This statement should be complete • Problem requirement- Needs to be positive requirement are listed must be achieved through a proper design. • Problem limitations – Negative factors are listed. • Sketches- To generate 2D or 3D model • Gather data – The gathered data should be graphed or easy interpretation DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Preliminary ideas • Conduct brain storming session – To find out a specific problem for all ideas contribute by its members • Prepare sketches and notes - It can be used for create, modifying and developing. • Research existing designs – It can be obtained through research of similar products, Magazines etc. • Conduct survey – It can used to gather opinions and reactions. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Earle Model Design refinement Analysis To determine the cost, function and market appeal. • Several of better preliminary ideas are selected for suitable refinement. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Earle Model Decision Implementation It is the presentation of the final design concept in workable form as working drawings and specifications • At this stage a single design is accepted as solution to the design problem when compare to the cost of manufacturing , weight etc. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Concurrent Engineering Is a strategy where all the tasks involved in product development are done in parallel. Collaboration between all individuals, groups and departments within a company. • Customer research • Designers • Marketing • Accounting • Engineering DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Concurrent Engineering Traditional Process = Linear Vs Concurrent Engineering = Team collaboration DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Concurrent engineering Characteristics of concurrent engineering Advantages of concurrent engineering As the design decisions are taken by a team of multidisciplinary experts, changes and modification on the product design will be faster It ensures better quality • Product responsibilities lie on the team of multi disciplinary group. • Integration of design, process planning and production will be achieved. • Product lead time will be less. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Sequential Engineering • Three major phases of conventional manufacturing process are design, process planning and manufacturing. • In design phase of the conventional manufacturing process, the product is designed on the basis of specification/requirements and method of manufacturing decided. DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Sequential Engineering Errors changes and corrections Sequential engineering approach DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
Sequential Engineering Advantages Disadvantages As the decisions are taken by individuals, product modifications/changes will be slow. Since each activity is sequentially carried out, this approach requires longer lead time Because of above reasons, the product will be low • It is very simple, well defined method and allows everyone to remain on the same page. • It is an enforced discipline approach DHARANI KUMAR.S/AP/MECH/SECE
