Technology computer-aided design

With the advent of the technology. Computer Aided Design (CAD) is widely used by engineers as a designing tool in various industries from manufacturing to medicine field. As compared to the conventional way where the design process itself is difficult especially when it involves with complex geometry.

Founded in 1982, ICCAD is an annual show focusing on information technology for computer-aided design professionals and engineers. 

Although adequate materials and devices are essential, successful manufacturing will require other capabilities as well. First, the process must have high yield, which implies low variability, and provide robust stability to environmental factors. To produce the envisioned products, there must be readily available electronic design tools that can adequately simulate both device and circuit performance. Although some of these computer-aided design tools are available from microelectronics technology, others must either be modified, because of the differences in the thin-hlm devices, or created anew because the devices have no equivalent (nanowires and nanotubes).

Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) technologies have in common the capability to build objects with comphcated 3D geometries, directly from Computer-Aided Design (CAD) files, without the necessity of tooling. SFF technologies also have in common the employment of an additive building process, in which a 3D object is built up by the repeated addition of layers of material. This is in contrast to more standard technologies which are characterized by the implementation of a subtractive fabrication process, e.g., CNC (Computer Numerical Control), where the 3D object is manufactured by calculated removal of material from a block of raw material. 

Gaining from this technique requires skill with computer aided design (CAD) software, as well as the availability of a rapid prototyping machine (Exhibit 42.1). Therefore, you may need the help of someone who is versed and knowledgeable in this arena and its associated technologies.
