CIM:-

Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the manufacturing approach of using computers to control the entire production process.[1][2] This integration allows individual processes to exchange information with each other and initiate actions. Through the integration of computers, manufacturing can be faster and less error-prone, although the main advantage is the ability to create automated manufacturing processes. Typically CIM relies on closed-loop control processes, based on real-time input from sensors. It is also known as flexible design and manufacturing




Soft ware construction

This software program is developed to work under Microsoft Windows XP Professional operating system , Windows Vista and Windows 7 .The main software program consists of several modules , Which are developed under different programming and drafting packages as follows:



  • AutoCAD package is used for drafting of part drawing input

  • Visual basic 10 package is used for constructing the system engine , and user interfaces ( input and out put)
