CAD Full Form 

CAD Full Form is Computer-Aided Design. Computer-aided design is the use of computers (or workstations) to assist in the creation, analysis, optimization, or modification of a design. This software is used for the following reasons: 

  • Improve the productivity of the designer
  • Improve the quality of the design
  • Student Communication through documentation
  • Create a database for manufacturing

Designs made with CAD are helpful in protecting products and inventions when it is used in patent applications. The output of the CAD software is often in the form of electronic files that can be printed, machined, or used in other manufacturing operations. The terms computer-aided drafting (CAD) and computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) are also used.

The use of CAD to design electronic systems is known as electronic design automation (EDA). On the subject of machine design, it is known as mechanical design automation (MDA), which includes the process of creating a technical drawing by making use of computer software.

CAD software used for mechanical design makes use of either vector-based graphics to show the objects of traditional drafting or producing raster graphics to show the overall appearance of designed objects. However, it involves more than just shapes. Like in the manual drafting of technical and engineering drawings, the output needs to convey information, such as materials, dimensions, tolerances, and processes, but definitely not according to application-specific conventions.
