hi, im currently doing a research project at uni in to computer aided engineering, and this seemed like a good place to come for info..
first, quite simple question to you guys would be to identify what you feel are the 4 most wiudely used computer aided design parametric solid modelling software packages used within industry today, and furthermore, to identify any 4 manufacturing companies which use any of these packages.
second is a much broader question to which any input would be appreciated. essentially im looking for any negative impact from the proliferation of CAD/CAM as opposed to the traditional approach.
any help/feedback at all is greatly appreciated guys. feel free to say as much as you want, cos its all useful to me...
thanks,
sg
