CAD is an advantage to the designer, manufacturer and the customer.

CAD also allows the visualization in any viewing angle and provides powerful tools to practically execute any function with regard to the design. These designs, can be stored as data files converted into high quality photo, sending images for design presentation or shown to customers or can quickly be converted into “trees” for high quality production/manufacture through a CAM machine. This course is a must for any budding designer who has ambitions to make it into the creative world of design and manufacturing.
