A large CAD conversion job is when you bring in an outsourced team to handle a lot of CAD or engineering work for you. It can involve updating hundreds of files, creating new ones, or optimizing the parts that are currently in your library. At CAD/CAM Services, we’ve...
The design has come a long way since the days of paper and pencil drafting. Even 2D CAD, a staple of design and engineering since the 1980s has mostly been replaced by 3D design, PLM, and PDM. If you’re a CAD designer or engineer, the tool and processes you...
The American Institute of Architects, AIA, sets standards for computer-aided design — or CAD — documents. Most building projects require drawings that meet AIA standards. AIA layering standards assign specific layer names, content descriptions, colors,...
Take a Look at Our Meshing Case Study! To obtain a proper STL file, you need a program that triangulates the points to create the appropriate vectors. The shell created in STL is what the cutting machine slices. Here are a few tips, as outlined below. Point cloud...
Large construction companies were early adopters of BIM. They saw how BIM could improve profitability and push global competitiveness. While small construction companies may have been aware of BIM advantages, often their limited cash flow and narrow future planning left them out of the initial push to BIM. Small and mid-sized construction companies have traditionally been at a disadvantage when competing in the larger global market or against high-stakes players. This is where a well-organized BIM service company can provide small contractors with the same competitive advantages as larger companies, but without the need for purchasing the infrastructure (software, hardware, and personnel) to support the newer technology.
Designing an engine or its internal components using SolidWorks requires mastering the tools and techniques employed in a typical SolidWorks automotive design project. This means that you need to learn about SolidWorks tools including equations and configurations to...
