Question

A robot manufacturing company in Southeast Asia undertakes a government project to produce multi-utility robots. It requires a software to control the machine tools and processes needed to manufacture robots. Identify which of the following can help the company in this scenario.
a. Computer-aided manufacturing
b. Enterprise application integration
C Product line pricing
d. Product portfolio designing

Answer 1

Answer: a. Computer-aided manufacturing

Explanation: A computer-aided manufacturing would help the robot manufacturing company in this regard since it can provide the required software to control the machine tools and processes needed in the manufacture of the multi-utility robots.

Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) is defined as the use of software and computer-controlled machinery to automate a manufacturing process and is composed entirely of software that tells a machine how to make a product through the generation of toolpaths; a machinery that can turn raw material into a finished product and a post processing unit that converts toolpaths into machine languages. Computer-aided manufacturing thus provides high–speed machine tool paths that greatly minimize cycle times, reduce tool and machine wear and general improvement in quality and accuracy of cutting.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option (a) Computer aided manufacturing.

Explanation:

Computer aided manufacturing (CAM) is the only thing that can help the robot manufacturing company in this scenario.

Robot manufacturing company requires a software to control the machine tools which is basically the function of the computer aided manufacturing.

Other functions of the CAM includes:

1. Assisting in the operation of a manufacturing plant through the use of computer.

2. Creation of fast production process.

It can also be used to create objects.
