The Unconventional Applications of CAD/CAM

摘要

The use of CAD/CAM has become more intrinsic now and is being used in industries like footwear, art, orthopaedic, and dental applications.CAD/CAM has been traditionally associated with the Aerospace and Automobile industry. But the concepts of design, manufacture, inspection and reverse engineering are increasingly being used in fields far removed from the usual.
