    Using CAM technology in construction industry?

    CAM has being used all around the world. CAM generally falls into two main types: subtractive and additive. Subtractive processes involve getting rid of material, and this includes the previous example of guiding a cutting tool to cut out a section of cladding. These cutting and shaping processes are currently the more commonly used types of CAM, and the laser cutting of sheet metal is certainly becoming more common. CNC (computer numerical control) machine cutting can be used mostly on workpieces. Additive processes involve adding material. They are less common at present compare to subtractive according to manufacturing value, but the arrival of 3D printers makes this a very exciting…
