DESIGN
 Design is the process of creating a
system, component, or process to meet
desired needs .
 Mechanical design means the design of

components and systems of

a mechanical nature machines, products,
structures, devices and instruments.
 Design is a complete prototype with

fabrication and analysis

WHAT IS CAD
CAD (Computer Aided Design)

 CAD is integration of computer science

techniques for engineering design

 Theterm CAD defines any design activity that

involves an electronic computing machine in
the process of design development, analysis or
modification and optimization
When did CAD Come
 1964: In the early 1960s the first
commercially available Computer Aided
Design (CAD) systems were coming out on
the market.
 The first of these were used by large

aerospace and engineering

Main functions of CAD
 Create graphic representation (create 2D/3D
drafting)
 3D modeling (individual component and

assembly modeling)
 Analysis (stress, modal etc.)
Role of Mechanical Engineer in CAD
 Mechanical engineers do drafting and design
and prototype testing (analysis) operation in
CAD.
 Use to creates graphic representation of

physical object
Different types of CAD Software
Solidworks
Solid Works
 Mechanical software
 CAD/CAE/CFD/CAM
 This is a Parametric, Associative & Editable

software
 In SolidWorks, you sketch ideas and

experiment with different designs to create

3D simple and complex parts, assemblies,
and drawings
When was it lunched
 SOLIDWORKS was developed by MIT graduate
Jon Hirschtick in 1993 and was bought by
Dassault Systems in 1995.
 Initial release : November 1 - 1995
Why Solidworks is Best
 Very productive 3D CAD software tool
 User friendly
 Easy to understand
 Easy to Edit
 Used in most of the SME & MSME

AutoCad
AutoCAD
 AutoCAD is a computer-aided design
software developed by the company Autodesk
 It allows you to draw and edit digital 2D more

quickly and easily than you could by hand.

The files can also be easily saved and stored
in the cloud, so they be accessed anywhere at
anytime.
