Correct Answer - Option 3 : CAD/CAM software
Explanation:
Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM):
- It uses geometrical design data to control automated machinery.
-
CAM systems are associated with computer numerical control (CNC) or direct numerical control (DNC) systems. Since both CAD and CAM use computer-based methods for encoding geometrical data, it is possible for the processes of design and manufacture to be highly integrated
Numerical control (NC):
- It is the automated control of machining tools systems require motor drives to control both the position and the velocity of the machine axes.
- Each axis must be driven separately and follow the command signal generated by the NC control.
- There are two ways to activate the servo drives: the open-loop system and the closed-loop system.
-
Papers, tapes, floppy tapes and cassettes etc. is a small magnet; additionally acts as a storage device for CNC inputs.
- It is used to transfer the data from one place to the other place.
Post processor is used in CNC machines only & not in NC machines. A post-processor is a unique driver (not hardware) specific to a CNC machine, Robot or mechanism.
The digitizer is an operator input device, which contains a large, smooth board & an electronic tracking device, which can be changed over the surface to follow existing lines.
The electronic tracking device contains a switch for the user to record the desire x & y coordinate positions.
