Each has its own strengths and is usually targeted toward a specific market and group of users. An inspection of these various systems reveals that they have a generic structure and common modules. Awareness of such structure and modules enables users to better understand system functions for both evaluation and training purposes. CAD/CAM Applications The geometric engine (module) is the heart of a CAD/CAM system. It provides users with functions to perform geometric modeling and construction, editing, and manipulation of existing geometry, drafting and documentation. The typical modeling operations that user can engage in are model creation, cleanup, documentation, and printing/plotting. Shaded images can be generated as part of model documentation. CAD/CAM Applications The creation of a geometric model of an object represents a means and not a goal for engineers. Their ultimate goal is to be able to utilize the model for design and manufacturing purposes. The applications module achieves this goal. This module varies from one software system to another. However, there are common applications shared by most CAD/CAM systems. Mechanical applications include mass property calcula
