Computer-aided manufacturing typically involves all phases of manufacturing.

More Questions from Manufacturing Processes

• Selective laser sintering apparatus uses laser-hardened resins to form models.
• Topographic shell fabrication is typically used to mold rapid prototypes of small-scale parts.
• Manufacturing generally does not add value.
• Nanotechnology and nanofabrication are terms used to describe extremely large-scale operations.
• Fused deposition modeling systems use molten plastic deposited in layers corresponding to cross sections on the part.
• Solid ground curing systems are the most common rapid prototyping systems.
• Concurrent engineering involves all disciplines in the early design stages.
• Rapid prototyping costs about the same, but takes less time than traditional prototyping.
• In net-shape manufacturing, the part is made as close to the final specifications as possible to cut down on the cost of finishing operations.
• Manufacturing involves making products from raw materials.
