Making (Materials option)

Akopọ

Once a product has been designed on a computer, the same digital information can drive the machines that cut, shape and build it. Computer-aided manufacture (CAM) is the use of computer-controlled machinery, laser cutters, CNC routers and mills, 3D printers and robot arms, to make products directly from a digital design. The model the designer drew becomes the instructions the machine follows, so what is designed is exactly what is made.

This note examines making with CAM in the resistant-materials context. It sets out the advantages of CAM, such as speed, accuracy, repeatability and the direct link from CAD, and weighs them against the disadvantages, including high cost, the loss of some manual skills and the consequences of a machine repeating a mistake perfectly. The aim is to let you argue clearly about when CAM is the right way to make a product and when it is not.

Computer-aided manufacture is the use of computers to control the machines that make a product. A CAD model is converted into a set of instructions, often called a tool path, that tells the machine exactly how to move. Common CAM machines in resistant-materials work include the laser cutter (which cuts and engraves sheet material with a focused beam), the CNC router and milling machine (which cut away material from wood, plastic or metal with a computer-guided spinning tool), the 3D printer (which builds a part up layer by layer) and robot arms on assembly lines. The defining feature is that the machine follows a digital design rather than a human guiding the tool by hand.
