Use of electronic computers
The primary difference between today's manufacturing
facility and its World War II or immediate postwar
counterpart is the machining precision and efficiency
made possible by the electronic computer. In a
process broadly known as computer-aided
manufacturing (CAM), computers are employed to direct
the operations of machine tools. CAM embraces a number
of types of computing equipment and various methods of
controlling the machine. In general, the computer
serves as a translator between the human programmer and
the machine tool. The design of the part to be
manufactured is reduced to symbolic computer
language, and the programmer feeds the computer
instructions as to the necessary machining operations.
The computer in turn relays the instructions, in
the form of command signals punched on tape, to an
automatic controller, which directs the machining with
extreme precision. Advanced CAM systems include
multiple-operation machines, equipped with a battery of
different tools; by computer-direction, the
machine can perform any combination of operations in a
prescribed sequence and even change the tools as
required. Some huge tools can turn out large
single-piece components and structures of intricate
shape, eliminating the need for joining several
individual parts. Computer-aided manufacturing
shortens production time, thereby reducing cost, and in
addition makes possible greater accuracy in parts
fabrication.
