Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software is used to automate and optimize manufacturing processes by generating tool paths and instructions for CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines. CAM software translates computer-aided design (CAD) models into actionable information for machines on the shop floor. This software helps manufacturing companies optimize the process of converting raw materials and components into finished products. CAM software provides instructions on how various types of equipment should perform production tasks, such as cutting, milling, and roughing. Production managers use it to plan and prepare for production operations, while shop floor employees rely on it to operate equipment efficiently and safely. CAM software is typically used alongside CAD or product lifecycle management (PLM) systems and may need to integrate with other manufacturing software, such as ERP systems or manufacturing execution systems.
