How CAD Technology benefits from Dynamic Modeling

Alexander Pope, in the 17th century, coined the phrase “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”. This phrase holds true in many cases, because a small amount of knowledge could lead to overconfidence. An overconfident person is likely to make decisions hastily without taking all facts into account.

What does this phrase have to do with Computer Aided Design? A CAD engineer who is trained primarily to use CAD software tools, but who lacks sound theoretical training, fits this phrase in many respects. Such a CAD engineer who has successfully solved many routine design problems with CAD tools could become overconfident in his/her design skills.

The time will come when this overconfident engineer, who lacks adequate theoretical training, models a non-routine problem incorrectly and misinterprets the results. Consequently, an incorrect design for a product is implemented. Unless the design error is caught and fixed, the launched product will be an accident waiting to happen. Failure of a poorly-designed product could cost a company a lot of time, money, and loss of reputation.

Many CAD and engineering organizations are aware of such dangers, and they include Dynamic Modeling into their product design cycles. Doing so provides “checks and balances” before a design materializes into a product.

This article examines the roles that Dynamic Modeling plays in CAD-driven product design.

Specifically, the article tries to answer these questions:

  • What is Dynamic Modeling, and is it needed for all product designs?
  • Are all CAD engineers qualified to perform CAD enabled dynamic modeling?
  • What are the benefits of Dynamic Modeling?
  • How is Dynamic Modeling being used?

What Is Dynamic Modeling and Is It Needed for all Product Designs?

Dynamic modeling simulates the behavior of an object over time. In engineering, dynamic models are described in terms of causal loops or feedback and control systems.

The causal loop captures the structural makeup or components that comprise a complex system or product, and the interactions between them. Computer models are built to simulate how the system responds to time-varying states and external loads, and how the system responds over time.

Dynamic modeling is not restricted to time-variant behavior of physical structures, but it is also used for artificial intelligence, economics, psychology, political science, and many other disciplines.

Not all products require dynamic modeling. For example, stationary objects such as statues are not subjected often to time varying externals loads such as wind forces or earthquakes. Therefore, static models suffice for determining their structural integrity.

Examples of good candidates for dynamic modeling are:

  • Bridges, which experience variable loadings, wind forces, and perhaps earthquakes.
  • Offshore oil production platforms, which are subjected to ocean waves, wind, and current loadings.
  • Automobiles, which are subjected to shock loadings and aerodynamic forces.
  • Buildings and structures in earthquake-prone areas, because they endure seismic loadings. 

Are all CAD Engineers Qualified to Perform CAD Enabled Modeling?

Not all CAD engineers have the skills to perform dynamic modeling adequately. CAD software tools which provide its capabilities will incorporate them as FEA, CFD, and other software packages. The CAD engineer who has not taken advanced courses in Solid Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Feedback and Control Systems, Vibration Analysis, Random Mechanics, and similar courses may lack sufficient theoretical skills to adequately model and interpret non-routine design problems with CAD software.

Dynamic modeling which is performed incorrectly could produce design errors with disastrous consequences, if the errors:

  • Are not detected and corrected by peers,
  • Are not detected during design reviews,
  • Are not detected during the prototyping and testing phase.

Once a poorly designed product is launched, the consequences could mean applying fixes in the field, having a product recall, or withdrawing a product. None of these options is desirable, because it creates customer dissatisfaction, possible lawsuits, loss of income, and loss of reputation.

What are the Benefits of Dynamic Modeling?

If properly performed, Dynamic Modeling can reveal design flaws that may not show up readily during the prototyping and testing phases of the product design cycle.

Unique benefits that dynamic modeling provides include:

  • Identifying interactions between subsystems of a complex product which may be too expensive to create during physical prototyping and testing,
  • Identifying potential failure modes which should be tested in physical prototypes, before hard tooling,
  • Simulating dynamic loadings which may be difficult to create during actual testing,
  • Identifying functional limitations on the use of a product.

Although some complex systems may be difficult to model accurately, it provides extra product performance data from virtual prototypes. Testing and validation of data obtained from virtual prototypes within physical prototypes should create a robust and reliable design.

How is Dynamic Modeling being used?

A few examples should clarify the benefits that Dynamic Modeling brings to CAD design work.

  • Engineers at NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) are building a horizontal smokestack computer model called the Scale-Model Smokestack Simulator. The Dynamic Model will predict the amount of carbon dioxide coming out of smokestacks with 1% accuracy, compared with current measurement accuracy of 10 to 20%. This Dynamic Model will make it easier to address the problem of CO2 emissions which the EPA is concerned about.
  • The University of Le Havre uses Dynamic Modeling to efficiently calculate optimized mold measurements for a ship hull.
  • SolidWorks provides modeling software within their CAD offerings for all types of industrial robot movements. The software also translates code from one robot to another, and can import models from major CAD systems.
  • It is being used extensively to study the impact of Self Driving vehicles on traffic flow.

Conclusions

When it is used effectively and correctly, creates virtual product prototypes that can identify failure modes and functional limitations of a design at an early stage.

When dynamic modeling is used together with Additive Manufacturing (or 3D printing) for physical product prototyping, the design cycle could be significantly shortened. Consequently, reliable and cost effective products will be launched, and the cost saving will benefit both the product manufacturer and the consumer.

3D printing, music industry, music storage, computer-aided design

How Music Industry impacted by 3D Printing?

Digital preservation of works for books, and arts, were stored while talking about music, pictures and movies. One advantage of storing information in digitised format is it transports electronically. It comes with backup copies for data placed in many remote locations. Another benefit it includes is the fidelity of the information preserved indefinitely.Unfortunately, it’s likely to provide significant amounts of movies, music, and works of art that are lost forever. It comes with using reliable methods for preserving music that wasn’t available previously. For example, much music is stored on wax discs played on phonographs or other old movies. However, original recordings come with digitised, natural degradation of wax recordings and tapes made with large amounts of music and films unrecoverable. Though old movies and music are digitally remastered, using true fidelity of the multimedia data that are lost quickly.

Works of art come with longevity and are preserved in several forms. Some artifacts remain as carvings on stone and wood, some artifacts remain as statues, and some artifacts remain as stylus-based ink recordings on papyri, scrolls, paper, and other media. Except for stone carvings and statues, which could be considered to a reasonable extent as naturally non-destructible, recordings on wood-based products such as papyri, scrolls and paper degrade quickly in high humidity environments. Recordings on wood-based media need low humidity or vacuum storage conditions to survive over long periods.

Using lost objects for cultural and historical value forever takes natural or artificial disasters. It needs to preserve musical data that asks, “How does 3D printing impact the music industry?” To answer this query, it helps to address the topics like:

  • What methods to use historically to store music?
  • What modern methods are utilised for storing music?
  • How useful is it to support 3D Printing for the music industry?

WHAT METHODS HAVE BEEN USED HISTORICALLY WITH STORE MUSIC?

It’s a traditional method used to store music that relies on writing music on sheets of paper. Let’s say classical orchestral works by Mozart, Bach, Beethoven and others are published as sheet music.

The method used to store music cannot offer good longevity and permanence using a medium for storing music over time and storing music that can easily be lost due to fire or floods.

It adds improvements with storing music that utilise an audio format together with physical recording media.

Over the last 100 years, musical storage relies on the below methods:

A few years ago, audio data came in the form of sound waves that transcribe to glass, paper, and wax cylinders as mechanical analog signals recorded as lateral grooves. Also, the stylus motion adds grooves used to render the recorded audio data. The products in this era cover the Edison phonograph, the Dictaphone and the phonograph disk.

1900 and 1948 came with many improvements that utilized magnetization and electrical amplification for analog signals with high fidelity audio. The products cover magnetic tape, audio cassettes, and vinyl phonograph discs.

They are moving on with 1948 and 1970, the powerful audio signal process techniques that utilised Dolby noise reduction covering stereophonic rendition. The products in this era come with 4-track and 8-track stereo, the microcassette, minicassette and compact cassette.

After 1970, the digital processing tech used advanced products that utilise audio formats, including MPEG, MLP, and other audio formats found in products that provide CDs, DVDs, HD DVDs, and various Blu-ray technology.

WHAT MODERN METHODS ARE UTILISED FOR STORING MUSIC?

The music library grows at an alarming rate, where the compression methods develop to store the volume of audio data used in the cloud by making it available to users and using them as web streaming technology.

Well-known competitors in this audio storage and streaming marketplace include the following:

Apple’s iTunes stores over 43 million songs using downloaded on iPad, iPhones, iPods or other Apple-based products. The audio formats offer Apple style, adding conversion software that primarily uses services that do not use web streaming.

The Amazon Cloud Player uses services that are similar to Apple iTunes. It uses Amazon Player that utilises a compression than iTunes. Being lossy means the original music that’s not rendered with true fidelity. The portions of the audio signal dropped when rendering so that the human ear cannot easily detect the difference between the actual and rendered sound.

Google Play Music offers free access to over 30 million songs. The services are free and are considered a bargain compared with the other paid services. Both Google and Amazon services utilise web streaming with ease.

HOW USEFUL IS 3D PRINTING FOR THE MUSIC INDUSTRY?

A fantastic benefit includes 3D Printing, which brings musical recordings stored in digital format recalled and reprinted at will. For sentimental reasons, some people like to play music available on phonographs. Using 3D Printing, both old and modern music can be stored in digital form, retrieving 3D printed used on improved durable media. More sophisticated materials are available for 3D printers, and high-quality audio recordings are used to get outstanding audio fidelity and rendition. Apart from this printing musical recordings, the 3D printers are used primarily to print musical instruments like drums, guitars, pianos and saxophones. The list covers musical instruments that grow as 3D printing materials like:

To summarise, 3D Printing makes it possible to:

  • Store music digitally with reproduce it faithfully
  • Print a variety of musical instruments.

difference between IGES and STEP Files

What is difference between IGES and STEP Files?

What is difference between IGES and STEP Files?

IGES and STEPFILES both are "neutral file formats". They are compatible with using different 3D packages. The IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification) is the oldest developed in the mid '70s used to solve compatibility issues between different software packages. Let’s discuss about each of them in brief:

STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product data) created in the '80s and uses ISO as an improvement on IGES. It’s most widespread format in IGES and can contain basic 2D or 3D data. It is more versatile and contains additional data using material information and tolerances.

For most design engineers, the scenario looks familiar: Let’s say, Person 1, the lead designer of company X, require to send a CAD model to Person 2, the design engineer for company Y. Person 1 designed the part and Person 2 works in Pro Engineer. Person 1’s file can’t be opened in person 2’s software, therefore, it become simple to transfer a part file and become a problem.

The issue of non-interchangeable proprietary file formats for CAD data have work for decades. The software companies promote the use of modelling packages and ensure that only their package can open a file that created in their software. Unfortunately, all major 3D modelling software company can communicate between them is an issue.

Also, a solution exists in the form of neutral file formats where one canpass between different modelling software packages. One can use a neutral file format to pass CAD mode and then open it and work with it as required. The most common variants of all neutral file formats are the IGES and STEP formats. User recognise these formats by understanding the file name that ends with. iges, .igs, .stp, or .step.

THE HISTORY OF NEUTRAL FILE FORMATS

Talking about mid-seventies, the United States government realised that it had an issue. With using the unique proprietary CAD programs adds different contractors, millions of dollars and countless hours in it. They wasted the tedious process for sharing and converting data between all the systems. One can imagine how many times the scenario has played out on a large project such as an aircraft carrier or missile delivery system using hundreds of suppliers. Moving on with Air Force launched project in conjunction with Boeing.

There are large industry partners that create a neutral file format. The result was IGES (Initial Graphics Exchange Specification).It comes with flexible file format that can code drawing, 3d geometry, and add critical CAD data in a format can be shared between major CAD systems. The US Department of Defence require IGES format that is used for all weapons that has been adopted in other industries as well.

STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product data) was created in the eighties along with an improvement on the IGES standard by ISO (the International Standards Organization). The goal creates global standard based on awide range of CAD-related data types. It adds complexity that undertake years of development and still continuously upgrade it. It offers largest ISO’s standards.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IGES AND STEP

IGES uses widespread standard, that supports all major CAD systems worldwide.

An IGES file contains basic CAD information including 2D and 3D geometry such as surfaces, curves, and wireframes.

  • It comes with presentation elements including drafting elements like lines and annotations.
  • It offers electronic and pipe schematic elements along with finite element modelling.
  • It comes with language and product definition data.

STEP comes with newer standard whereas IGES is not widespread. There are major CAD programs that is well-recognise as STEP and it’s steadily grown as their standard improves.

STEP documents contain the same product definition information as IGES, with the following additions such as Topology, Tolerances, Material properties and various other complex product data.

PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS

In several cases there are solid models or drawings shared with either file format that work fine. It comes with compatibility that is safest to start with IGES. It comes in most common format that is most likely to work by receiving party’s software. However, a designer considers the data to be shared with ease. If the file contains more product definition (for example, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing data, material properties, etc), then STEP would be a better choice.

It is not uncommon for supplier to trouble work with one format. Whereas it requests its alternative by depending on your software. It became familiar in most situations. We are the best Australian Design & Drafting Services company to provide excellent CAD conversions for IGES and STEP file to native file format. Contact Us to get more information.

Electrical Design Evolution

The New Dimension in Electrical Design Evolution or Revolution?

how electrical engineers moved from paper sketches to 3d

Hi Folks! Its chilling winter here in Australia, so let's have some warms up from electrical design and drafting news..

Over the past 260 years, the way we light our homes and power our businesses has changed dramatically. We’ve traded candles for light bulbs, abandoned the abacus for super computers, and swapped selenium wafers for energy-efficient solar panels. We now have a generation of products that are connected to the internet to improve the quality of our lives–think smart appliances, fitness monitors, and intelligent trash cans.  These innovations reflect advances in scientific thinking—and advances in the way engineers design increasingly complex electrical design systems.

1752: Lightning in a … Kite?electrical design

Benjamin Franklin was an inventor, writer and statesman, but he was also an engineer who developed electrical systems using hand sketches. His best-known feat? Verifying that lightning is actually electricity.

In June 1752, history says that Benjamin Franklin sent a key attached to a homemade kite into the air. “As soon as any of the thunder clouds come over the kite,” he wrote, “the pointed wire will draw the electric fire from them, and the kite, with all the twine, will be electrified.” While there’s a good chance Franklin made up the tale, his theory was ”electrifying.”

1879: A Little Menlo Park Magic

Picking up where Franklin left off, Thomas Alva Edison (aka the Wizard of Menlo Park) held more than 1,000 patents. In 1879, he introduced the electric light bulb. It lasted longer than previous models and employed a carbonized cotton thread filament.

Edison made a host of other contributions to electrical design, including the system of power stations now called General Electric, and schematics continued to be the planning tool of choice.

Although a true technological genius, Edison wasn’t all butterflies and rainbows— he electrocuted puppies, a horse, and an elephant in an attempt to label alternating

current (AC) power as dangerous. He lost this campaign and Nikola Tesla’s AC induction motor won, mechanizing factory work and powering household solidworks electrical designappliances.

But that (admittedly creepy) anecdote hardly tells the full story of Edison’s life. He went on to improve life for generations of Americans with the phonograph, motion pictures, the storage battery, and more.

1907: Vacuum Tubes

Throughout the 20th century, electrical engineers used schematics to represent increasingly complicated systems for radio, medical devices, and computers. In 1907, Lee De Forest patented the audion, which enabled clearly audible sounds such as a human voice to be relayed and amplified using a three-electrode vacuum tube–the world’s first triode.

1929: Machine Packs Serious Voltage

Wiring diagrams based on physical connections entered the electrical engineering vocabulary in 1929, when Alabama native Robert Jemison Van de Graaff built the first working model of an electrostatic accelerator.

Its purpose: accelerate particles, break apart atomic nuclei, and unlock

the secrets of individual atoms. Van de Graaff’s invention is used widely in science classrooms and paved the way for future electrical research.

1947: Transistor Transition

Schematics advanced yet again when electrical engineers began creating them based on logical connections. A major breakthrough occurred in 1947 when John

Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley collaborated to demonstrate the transistor— which amplifies or switches electrical signals—at Bell Laboratories. The semiconductor, which paired two gold contacts and a germanium crystal, represented an upgrade from cumbersome vacuum tubes.

1977: We’ve Gone Digital!

By the late 1970s, functions such as placement and routing became available in automatic physicalElectrical design Drawings

electronic design automation (EDA)— marking the birth of the digital schematic. Bell Labs, along with companies such as IBM and RCA, held advanced tools that operated on mainframes or 8-bit minicomputers. In 1977, super minis provided massive amounts of memory for designs.

Today: Entering a New Dimension

For decades, companies have developed products that feature both mechanical and electrical components. The traditional product development process for an electromechanical product has created long design cycles due to sequential electrical and mechanical design, as well as the discontinuities which occur when different groups use different names for common elements.

There are challenges in keeping the Bill of Materials (BOM) accurate through the use of so many spreadsheets. Often, once the electrical design piece has been completed,

it is then handed off to the mechanical design team. After they complete their part of the design, the entertaining part happens when it comes to figuring out how the electrical pieces fit into the product. A physical prototype is built at this point and

the designers get out a ball of string or a measuring tape to figure out how the wiring will fit. Given all the powerful software design tools we have, it’s ironic that we have fallen back to low-tech ways of integrating the electrical and mechanical pieces of the design. As you might expect, this method is prone to introducing lots of errors

and delays into the production process, product documentation, and BOM.

Things have evolved a bit over the last couple years. Electrical schematics entered the third dimension in 2012, when SOLIDWORKS introduced powerful and affordable 3D electrical CAD software for Windows, merging the logical connections championed by Benjamin Franklin with the modern day need to build 3D physical connections.

Using SOLIDWORKS® Electrical software, you can easily design electrical schematics and transform the logical schematics into 3D physical models which integrate into the overall design. SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D™ integrates with SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD modeling software to enable bi-directional and real-time integration of electrical components within the 3D model maintaining design synchronization and an accurate BOM. In this way, the entire engineering team can collaboratively work on a project concurrently, which not only produces a more integrated design; it can also lower project costs, and shorten time to market.

New Dimension in Electrical Design Evolution

Another benefit of the integrated SOLIDWORKS solution for electro-mechanical design is the ability to analyze or simulate the operation of the entire model against real-world conditions, such as thermal stress or physical vibration–all without having to build a physical prototype. This seems like “common-sense” (which even a man like Benjamin Franklin would appreciate if he were alive today).

From light bulbs to intelligent trash cans—and from handwritten notes on paper napkins to 3D modeling—one thing is clear: electrical design has entered the next dimension.

What You should know about Solidworks and its History?

In the following article, I will describe you in short sentences the genesis of SOLIDWORKS. How did it happen and why SOLIDWORKS until today has been so successful.

In December 1993, Mr. Jon Deer Tick founded together with a team of engineers SOLIDWORKS in Waltham Massachusetts / USA.His goal was to create a 3D CAD software (computer-aided design), therefore to develop a computerized program that volume body based modeling and to create technical drawings digitally. In addition, this software should be as user-friendly and do not require costly hardware.

Deer Tick opted for the Windows platform, in the very successful release of Windows 95. He and his team developed and programmed over a year and came up with the "initial release" 1995th first edition.

The friendly interface and intuitive handling of the parametric features made SOLIDWORKS quickly became popular. SOLIDWORKS was Distributed by certified resellers, offered in 1996 for the small machine builders in Germany at affordable prices and became the German success story.

In 1997, the French software company Dassault Systèmes took notice of SOLIDWORKS success stories and bought it for 310 million US dollars. There were initial doubts by SOLIDWORKS users, whether Dassault SOLIDWORKS would be implemented in the CAD program Catia or would give up entirely, but the Dassault Systèmes quickly realized the potential of SOLIDWORKS and focused on its further development.

Since SOLIDWORKS is continuously developed and expanded modularly. There are a variety of additional applications and industry-supporting functions. Such as the Sheet metal features or the weldment features.

Currently SOLIDWORKS is worldwide, more than 3,073,600 licenses in 23,400 locations in 80 countries.

3d Designer & Drafter

What are the Main fundamental Issues for 3d Designer/Drafter?

Designers and drafters encountered a few fundamental issues during the design process. It addresses the process that comes with 3D designer and drafter with creating a separate drawing production regardless of the manufacturing process. There have been several delays seen in the process. For example, if a drawing comes with an incorrect dimension, it offers a production drawing that can rework with time and massively disrupted.

We have a team of 3D designer drafters that do the manufacturing work and integrate the complete product development process. It adds lots of intelligent 3D design and drafting software available. It makes sure that your design and manufacturing work is mainly used daily. There is much intelligent 3d design and drafting software available for producing accurate manufacturing drawings. Additionally, if we talk about design and drafting company today, it helps to resolve all problems with ease.

We offer two essential questions during the design process

1. IS THIS PRODUCT FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE?

The total cost to produce a product mainly influence a variety of factors. It primarily uses material and labour costs that seemingly offer small changes and significantly impact the overall cost structure. As a leading Australian design and drafting company, our costing ensure that no cost-related surprises come to you when your model goes into production.

Our team allows 3d designers/drafters to act in a better way. Our project managers and the Engineers pursue new product development that gives a clear cost perspective regarding compliance and the pre-calculated structures. It monitors the impact of changes as it is transparent and clear.

Additionally, it comes with advantages like cost-effective product costing. It comes with the ability to work with both original models and drawings. It uses 3D CAD programs or neutral formats like IGES or STEP. Here, the user can define different materials and make changes to drawing or relocate the manufacturer’s place. The model changes are displayed immediately in cost per piece.

2. CAN THIS PRODUCT BE MANUFACTURED?

Australian design and drafting company support 3d designer/drafter and mould makers and respect the feasibility of your products. In the development process, there are complicated shape models that change regularly. The export process and the data repairing have high error probabilities and inaccuracies.

There are a few reasons, like when mould makers wait until the final design of a product is established and develop the final form. The cost of valuable production time is also well-noted. We at Australian Design and Drafting are early to make form. In addition to this, we offer a correct form of geometry that covers sketches, audit and control of thickness. For example, Plastics can perform a detailed filling analysis by determining the optimum position of the injection points.

The team ensures the proper filling pattern of the component, tracks the form weld lines and adds necessary points.3d designer/drafter can have a complete product development process and ensure effective communication between design and production during the entire development process. Australian Design and Drafting Services provides quality and cost-effective 3d design and drafting services across Australia. If you have any queries or inquiries regarding 3D modelling, Drop us an email at info@astcad.com.au or call us 1800 287 223 (Toll-Free) Australia Wide.

Autodesk Inventor Intellectual Property

How to Protect Design Intellectual Property with Autodesk Inventor?

Several companies in the engineering and manufacturing field use Autodesk inventors in their process, including sensitive and confidential data. Today, there are millions of files coming and going in cyberspace in this modern business world. Companies should protect their Intellectual Property (IP).

It’s essential when manufacturing a product. As it takes countless hours of engineers’ time, not to mention a company’s reputation if a “knockoff “product adds a lesser classic hit to the market. We have found that as industries work, we see the need to work with Architects or architectural design firms with bringing solid mechanical models.

There are boilers or mezzanines into Revit that represent placement, shape and size. Regardless of the situation, we would like to keep all intellectual property safe. This is why Autodesk worked so hard to prevent this with Autodesk Inventor simplification. It allows the user to create a simple version for the consumer by providing critical design information. We help you learn this crucial tool by using it in a great way.

THE FULL MODEL

Below is the section that creates internal and external items that provide the customer with the model for planning purposes in Autodesk. They require few connection points. One can do it in a few ways, and the first is to create the shell of the original model as its single part. Another one is to create basic shapes to represent the model.

Autodesk Inventor

COMPONENTS INCLUDED

The first step is to protect your intellectual property from simplifying the tab. It helps to choose the components that include what we do with the Include Components command.

After selection cover

The components come with a mini toolbar. It allows you to choose various options from the dropdown menu. The first drop down comes with an opportunity to view all components. It included internal and external constituents. We find it most helpful to switch between the three viewing options while making my selections. It allows reviewing any missing parts which should not be included. As shown in the screen, it captures below what each option does. The dropdown option mainly refers to choosing part, component, or other parent priority. After choosing your options and selecting what needs to be included, click the checkmark to finish this part of the process.

VIEW-MASTER

Once you finish including components, you’ll notice that you can no longer see any items that aren’t included. If we look at our View-Master, the command automatically creates a view called Simple View 1. Get the right click on this view in the browser with editing the selections.

CREATE SIMPLIFIEDPART

The third step is to select “Simplified Part”. This launches a new dialogue box and the standard new part creation options. It primarily uses a file that saves location and name. It includes options for what type of part you create and combining style buttons. The options are:

  • A single solid body that seems between faces merged.
  • It helps to maintain the body separately.
  • It primarily uses single solid body with seems between faces maintained
  • It’s used for our purposes and now see the BIM tab opened for further simplification.

Note: It uses simple View 1 along with the current view. It always helps to create a Simple Folder for all simplified parts.

FURTHER SIMPLIFICATION AND BIM TAB

At this point, the model is simplified with a great deal. One can simplify it more using the Simplify section of the BIM Tab. We will include the other half of the BIM Tab in the following paper.

REMOVE DETAILS

The first look removes details commands that recognize fillets and chamfers and custom selected faces. It utilizes a mini toolbar for any options. It looks at the mini toolbar. We provide a few options for items to remove. The All Faces Selectable allows selecting faces. We added Fillet and Chamfer selection box set by default. Our last Option is Auto Select. Use the screen that captures below with understanding how these options work.

Intellectual Property Inventor

FILL VOIDS

The second option here covers simplification with Fill Voids. It uses a prospect that fills holes and spaces with surface patches. This leaves a smooth surface that selects besides the auto Select by select loop, select edge, select face and more.

Check below to view how these tools function.

DEFINE ENVELOPES

The third option simplifies the parts further with the Defined Envelopes option. The option replaces a part or object used in the solid object form of a cylinder or box. Our choices on this toolbar are used for the bounding box and the bounding cylinder for the first button. Join or add new solid in the second button, and our selection methods faces are solid. See below for examples.

Google Sketchup

Can Google Sketchup replace AutoCAD?

If we talk about AutoCAD, then it’s well-suited for 2D and 3D mechanical, architectural design engineering, or civil. Sketchup also works excellent with 3D modelling and basic rendering objects. If you most spend time using designing tools, then Google Sketchup works best for you.

Does Sketchup work similarly to AutoCAD?

Sketchup and AutoCAD can be used in architecture and product design. It is based on precise 2D drawings and adds a great set of tools. Additionally, Sketchup is known for its easy to learn and user-friendly tool. It does manage architectural projects very well. Google Sketchup does offer minimized look and feel at first glance. It seems to lack the horsepower modelling software with ease. However, it’s like an old-school muscle car that’s been supercharged with real power. Though the user interface and capabilities come with Sketchup, it might give AutoCAD a run for its money. Additionally, two large limitations need to be overcome before Sketchup take on the big dogs. 

Let’s understand a few limitations of how Google Sketchup can replace AutoCAD.

Limitation: Compatibility

Sketchup is wrestling with a few debilitating bugs. The textures imported into Maya 6.0 or 6.5 tend to reverse themselves. The mesh system can transfer the Sketchup with recreating on the receiving machine. If you thinking about exporting to someplace and forget about it, this can be listed in the bug. These issues will need to be addressed and remedied before Sketchup gains serious market traction against AutoCAD.

Limitation: Naming Conventions

It comes with more limitations where the forced truncation of file names for Google Sketchup textures poses a problem for users. It commands large, complex, or sophisticated projects requiring specific naming conventions.

The antiquated 8.3 DOS character maximums limit Google Sketchup. Therefore, the file names must be shortened to eight characters or less. It poses a significant problem for high-end designers that juggle hundreds or thousands of textures. It swapped in and out quickly and easily. It is far less intuitive with Sketchup, which would be with AutoCAD with naming conventions.

Advantage: Free Models

Google Sketchup hooks up to 3D Warehouse. It contains a massive assortment of pre-designed models of all shapes and sizes with hundreds of thousands of them. The AutoCAD typically ships about 4,000 pre-designed model templates. The users can easily access few thousand or more AutoCAD user sites. The availability of pre-designed models from Sketchup is jaw-dropping.

When Google correct the compatibility and naming convention problems with Sketchup, AutoCAD has a tough and determined competitor. Until then, serious designers stick with the big dogs.

you spend any time at all using designing tools or rendering and model software, whether professionally or as a hobby in your free time, you’ve no doubt heard of Google Sketchup by now.

A fast, free, easy to learn designing tool that competes with AutoCAD (or does it?), Google Sketchup offers an extremely friendly user interface and a minimized look and feel that might, at first glance, seem to lack the horsepower of more well-known modeling software. However, like an old-school muscle car that’s been supercharged, the real power can only be seen when you pop the hood. But even though the user interface and capabilities of Sketchup might seem to be giving AutoCAD a run for its money, there are two large limitations that will need to be overcome before Sketchup can hope to take on the big dogs.

Limitation: Compatibility

Sketchup is still wrestling with a few debilitating bugs. At last check, textures imported into Maya 6.0 or 6.5 had a tendency to reverse themselves. Any mesh system being transferred out of Sketchup will need to be recreated on the receiving machine. And if you’re thinking about exporting to Vasari, forget about it – the list of bugs is too long to list here. These issues will need to be addressed and remedied before Sketchup can hope to gain any kind of serious market traction against AutoCAD.

Limitation: Naming Conventions

Perhaps more than any other limitation, the forced truncation of file names for Google Sketchup textures poses a problem for users commanding large, complex, or sophisticated projects that require specific naming conventions. Google Sketchup is limited by the antiquated 8.3 DOS character maximums, so file names have to be shortened to eight characters or less. This poses a significant problem for high-end designers juggling hundreds or thousands of textures that have to be swapped in and out quickly and easily, since naming conventions will be far less intuitive with Sketchup than they would be with AutoCAD – or just about any other form of computer aided design software.

Advantage: Free Models

Google Sketchup hooks up to 3D Warehouse, which contains a seriously massive assortment or pre-designed models of all shapes and sizes. Hundreds of thousands of them. While AutoCAD typically ships with around 4,000 pre designed model templates – and users can easily access a few thousand more on one of the many AutoCAD user sites out there – the availability of pre-designed models from Sketchup is absolutely jaw dropping.

If and when Google manages to correct the compatibility and naming convention problems with Sketchup, AutoCAD will have a tough and determined competitor. Until then, serious designers are smart to stick with the big dogs.

3D CAD Drafting

How Do Businesses prefer 3D CAD over 2D CAD drafting software?

Choosing Between 2D and 3D CAD Applications

It's an argument covering 2D vs. 3D CAD applications that rages with developers and designers. It works on both sides, touting the merits and preferences with opposing CAD choices' flaws. There would be a time when the argument seems academic to operations. Also, the project managers would have minimal exposure to its actual CAD interface. This article provides a clear perspective of the debate.

To begin with, the main difference between 2D and 3D applications should instead be self-explanatory. The 2D works solely on a single plane, while 3D allows the construction to realize three-dimensional surfaces fully. It is essential to note that 3D CAD makes proper usage of all image building techniques available within most 2D CAD applications.

It should allow users to open the third dimension and construct solid objects. It might seem that the signal at the end of the debate from the outset adds, why to argue that 2D CAD is superior in any setting if 3D CAD offers symmetrical capabilities. Therefore, the two other factors to consider when choosing 2D and 3D CAD software are required.

The first thing to note here is the price for how businesses prefer 3D CAD over 2D CAD drafting software. 3D CAD applications can inarguably be more expensive than older 2D software. It can sometimes tune to thousand dollars also. If you want to manage a small business or sole proprietorship, all you need is 2D CAD functionality. It's a software upgrade with making the wisest choice.

Secondly, 3D CAD applications are far more complex. The users overcome a much steeper learning curve. Since it moves an object from a 2D environment into a 3D environment, it can increase the surface areas adding detail exponentially. Along with this, the control systems in 3D CAD applications are more difficult to master.

If you run a small shop with less than four CAD users, you need to consider the immediate decrease in capability where the shop experiences the software changeover from 2D to 3D. It staggers 3D implementation by adding the best choice. It allows half of the design force with upgrade while keeping others working on 2D applications. It should give an overall output nominal. As soon as your designers have acclimated to a 3D workspace, one can continue upgrading in segments.

In short, there's no actual argument here. The 3D CAD applications are way superior in any design situation. However, implementation can cost more and would be time-consuming. Managers should be aware of this and plan CAD software upgrades accordingly.

Choosing between 2D and 3D CAD applications depends on your specific needs and the nature of your projects. Both 2D and 3D CAD software have their advantages and are suitable for different purposes. Here's a breakdown of their characteristics to help you decide:

2D CAD Applications:

  1. Simplicity: 2D CAD software is generally easier to learn and use, making it a good choice for beginners or for simple drafting tasks.
  2. Drafting and Schematics: If your primary focus is on creating technical drawings, schematics, floor plans, or electrical diagrams, 2D CAD is often sufficient.
  3. Faster Production: 2D drawings can be quicker to produce, making them a better choice for projects where speed is crucial.
  4. Less Resource-Intensive: 2D CAD software typically requires fewer system resources, making it suitable for older hardware or less powerful computers.
  5. Cost-Effective: Many 2D CAD applications are more affordable than their 3D counterparts.

3D CAD Applications:

  1. Design Visualization: If you need to create realistic models, visualize designs in 3D, or simulate real-world scenarios, 3D CAD is essential.
  2. Prototyping and Testing: 3D models allow for virtual prototyping and testing before physical production, which can save time and resources.
  3. Complex Geometry: For intricate designs or products with complex shapes, 3D modeling provides greater accuracy and detail.
  4. Interdisciplinary Collaboration: 3D models are more comprehensive and can facilitate better communication and collaboration among various teams, such as design, engineering, and manufacturing.
  5. Animation and Rendering: If you want to create animations or high-quality renderings for presentations or marketing purposes, 3D CAD is necessary.

Considerations for Your Decision:

  1. Project Requirements: Assess the specific needs of your projects. Are you creating simple drawings, or do you need intricate 3D models?
  2. Learning Curve: Consider your skill level and the time you can invest in learning the software. 2D CAD is generally simpler to pick up.
  3. Collaboration: If you're working with others, determine whether 2D or 3D models are more suitable for effective communication and collaboration.
  4. Future Growth: Consider whether your projects might evolve to require 3D capabilities in the future. Investing in 3D CAD now could save you from switching software later.
  5. Budget: Evaluate the cost of the software, including any ongoing licensing fees or subscriptions.
  6. Hardware: Check the system requirements of the software to ensure your computer can handle it.
