Abstract :
This endeavor proposes the development of a new computer-aided design (CAD) system given name as Packaging-Computer Aided Design (PackCAD). This system is proposed with a special intention and attention to support the design process of packaging food products by Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) irrespective of the minimum skills in handling a computers. Users are only required to select the pull-place (drag-drop) packaging form made in the template (stored in the data library) PackCAD in standard form or set free to change or resize the form according to the needs of food produced. The design constructed using PackCAD can be easily saved and opened to other CAD system.
