A PCB layout is required to place components on the PCB so that the component area can be minimized and the components can be placed in an efficient manner. The components can be placed in two ways, either manually or by software. The manual procedure is quiet cumbersome and is very inefficient. The other method is by the use of computer software. This method is advantageous as it saves time and valuable copper area. There are various software’s available for this purpose like- • Express PCB • Pad2pad • Protel PCB • PCB design Many of them are loaded with auto routing and auto placement facility. The software that we have used here is EXPRESS PCB. This software has a good interface, easy editing options and a wide range of components. Express P.C.B. Express PCB is a very easy to use Windows application for laying out printed circuit boards. There are two parts to Express PCB, Express SCH for drawing schematics and Express PCB for designing circuit boards. The software can be downloaded from the website www.expresspcb.com. There are lots of functions available in the software. This software is free of cost and also it is very easy to use. The different layers of the PCB can be viewed by just a click of a button on the interface. And we easily get its print on paper which is utilized for further processing. We can design single sided PCB as well as Double Sided PCB with this Software 8.2 BEGINNING Begin a new layout by running Express PCB. In the main window, the yellow rectangle defines the perimeter of the PC board. Set the size of your board by moving three of its four corners (the upper left corner is fixed at 0, 0). Move the corners by dragging them with the mouse, or by double-clicking them and entering coordinat... ... middle of paper ... ...g a pad type on the top toolbar. Carefully position the pads with the correct spacing. It may be helpful to change the Snap-to-grid spacing in the Options dialog. Assign each pad a Pin number. 2. Draw the component outline for the new part on the silkscreen layer. Draw straight lines by selecting or circles and arcs using. Be sure to select the silkscreen layer before drawing the outline by clicking 3. Group everything together to combine it into a single component as follows. Select all of the objects in your new part by clicking and then dragging the mouse to enclose them. From the Component menu, choose the command Group to make PCB component. Next, double click the new component to assign its Part ID (i.e. U12). 4. Save the component to add it to the Custom components list. Do this by selecting the part with the mouse and then choosing save custom

In additive manufacturing, parts are produced by slicing a CAD model into thin layers and then depositing material one layer at a time to create the 3D part. While current methods are very precise and have high resolutions, I have identified 3 main limitations of additive manufacturing.
The process starts with a concept or idea.(Mashable) The first stage of 3D printing is planning out this concept with either computer aided design or animation modeling software. There are tons of programs out there today with these capabilities. Google SketchUp for example is known for being easy to use.(3ders) Using some easy tools that can be learned quickly, edges and faces can come together to make very intricate models. It can even be used with Google Earth. All those models of the world in that software are made in what is basically the same process digitally. Blender is the free 3D creation program that exists for the needs of major operating systems.(3ders) It is a high end software containing features that are much more capable than Google SketchUp. Tinkercad is a newer way of creating designs for 3D printers and works slightly faster than the others.(3ders) Containing only three simple tools, it’s effectiveness for creating models is among the best..

When it comes to structural failure due to the collapse of a component, or a group of them, it refers to the deficiency of the part to withstand the stress of the workload for which it is designed. The components which an airplane is made of, are individually selected and thoroughly tested by manufacturers in such a way as to ensure safety standards of exceptional level.
One of the common problems of different disciplines plan for a construction project is the geometrical design inconsistencies [10]. BIM allows the user to identify the element in 3D which interfere with each other or occupy same space. BIM clash detection is an intelligent system is an intelligent system and it combines geometry
...tching. These above mentioned programs are types of building information modelling (BIM) software. The main advantage to using BIM software, is that any changes made in one view are automatically integrated into the whole 3D model. So only one change has to be made, compared to having to hand draw all related drawings.
So it’s important to research the product and the vendor to make certain that you select the right system for your business. You’ve got to have a system that fully integrates all aspects of running your manufacturing business, offers advanced features and options but is intuitive and easy to use so employees can grasp hold quickly, and adapts to the way you do business rather than forcing you to adapt to the software.
CAD programming is utilized to build the productivity of creator; expands plan quality, enhance correspondence with the assistance of documentation and keep up information for assembling. CAD is used for electronic printing and for other manufacturing operations.
The second way is by using computer aided drafting (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) programs on your computer.
Digital fabrication is coming into the construction industry to create precisely crafted and complex buildings in response to the new competitive environment and construction market demands. Thanks to advanced technology, the good revolution can be seen in most industrial activities. Almost all of the industry sectors are trying to keep themselves up to date with new related innovation to boost their sustainable growth. However, unfortunately architects and construction engineers have been more conservative despite all of the massive global investment in the construction sector. This conservative trend was started many years after great prosperity and success in the other industries. As an example, in comparison with the more developed automotive industry, the construction industry has been weighing the pros and cons of doing automation, and it is still under development. Despite some limitations and lack of information over the 80’s and even 90’s, but the current status indicates good progress. Today, most of architectural design is no longer possible without computer technologies. The models have become more complex and require advanced tools to understand design codes and implement fabrication processes. It can be said, that the advanced automated tools with a user-friendly programming system can bring incredible solutions for architects and construction engineers. Many researchers have made significant studies to consider all possibilities and limitations of digital design-construction in various types of procedures.
Computer integrated manufacturing is a relatively new technology arising from the application of many computer science sub disciplines to support the manufacturing enterprise. The technology of CIM emphasizes that all aspects of manufacturing should be not only computerized as much as possible but also linked together via a computer communication network into an integrated whole. In short, CIM has the potential to enable manufacturers to build cheaper, higher-quality products and thus improve their competitiveness.
