What is CAD/CAM? - Back to Basics?
Computer-Aided Manufacturing simply means any type of manufacturing that is created with the "aid" of a computer. This can be anything from the act of using a computer to control a machine that manufactures parts, to the use of a computer to assist in the management of a manufacturing plant.To get more news about

What is CAD/CAM?
CAD/CAM means literally: Computer-Aided Design & Computer-Aided Manufacturing. Both CAD and CAM are required to manufacture a part, it is unusual, although not impossible, to find one without the other. Generally, a part is first designed in a piece of CAD software and then sent to a CAM software package for manufacture.
What is CAM software?
CAM software is any software package that translates a CAD model into a language that the machine can understand. It tells the machine how to manufacture the part. Some software packages do both CAD and CAM.
We work closely with CAD/CAM software manufacturers to make it easier to plan and design furniture using Blum products. The suppliers listed will enable you to use Blum fittings with ease. Our software partners integrate Blum fittings data in various forms:
Via the Blum Fittings Configurator integrated in the software
Via a BXF interface that you can use to apply your planning results from the Cabinet or Product Configurator to your CAD software
Via a Blum fittings library that contains all CAD data either as single products or as entire Blum applications
Select a CAD/CAM software provider from the list to find out how they integrate Blum data in their software.
You can also use our free CAD/CAM Data Service for software without integrated Blum CAD/CAM data. This standardised data can be imported into your software.
