ITPEC IP April 2025 Question 88
ITPEC IP April 2025 — Question 88 of 100
Reuse design data and streamline design work — these are direct benefits of computer-aided design.
CAD stores drawings and models digitally, so engineers can copy standard parts, revise dimensions, create variants, check geometry, and share consistent design data. Reuse reduces repetitive drafting and shortens the design cycle.
Answer (d)
Why not others:
- (a) concerns materials planning or procurement
- (b) concerns factory automation and overstates it by claiming all human work is removed
- (c) concerns integrated production management, closer to CIM or manufacturing management systems
Key rule: CAD supports product design; CAM supports manufacturing execution from design data, while broader systems plan materials and coordinate production.
