ITPEC IP October 2024 — Question 88 of 100
CAD uses computers to create, modify, analyze, and document product designs, improving design productivity and specification reliability. Computer-Aided Design tools support precise 2D drawings or 3D models, reuse of components, automated checks and calculations, visualization, and consistent generation of design documentation.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- (a) describes material requirements planning, or MRP, which calculates and schedules needed materials
- (b) describes management of bills of materials and component requirements
- (c) describes product data or product lifecycle management across design and manufacturing
Key rule: CAD assists the engineering design itself; MRP plans materials, while PDM or PLM manages product information across stages.
