Abstract

 


Currently, the development of new products needs to be designed and manufactured with advanced methods to be at the forefront, so a new work approach known as additive manufacturing appears. It is intended in this work a review of the integration of additive manufacturing to new forms of operation, whose main objective is to obtain a precise focus on computer-aided engineering through the finite element method and the processes involved, to thus getting the right product reducing printing costs and processing time.


For this purpose, the use of CAD / CAE / CAM systems is introduced, which means the following: Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) as a design and manufacturing tool for processes. The application of these tools is immersed in Industry 4.0, and this document shows how the generation of three-dimensional models implies, the testing of functionality of prototypes in different situations, as well as helping to obtain reliable results in the design of any technological and innovative system.

Keywords:
CAD, CAM, CAE, Manufacuring, 3D, Design, Industry 4.0
