Computerization of Manufacturing
Support Systems
Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) denotes the
pervasive use of computer systems to design the products, plan
the production, control the operations, and the perform the various
business functions needed in a manufacturing company.
Computer Aided Design (CAD) denotes the use of computers to
design and analyze the product.
Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) denotes the use of
computers to perform computer numerical control.
CAD/CAM denotes the integration of CAD and CAM functions
into a combined system in which engineering and manufacturing
use information from a common product database.
