3D Modeling

Drafting has come a long way from blueprints into the new world of 3D Modeling where files can be updated almost instantly, and sent online through email. CAD designers can create computer files with CAD software which can be read by manufacturing machines to produce products. The 3D CAD designer is the one who actually materializes the 3D model. CAD drafting services offer a wide array of services to the public also. With the new... (posted by Chris 1 year 65 days ago.)
3D CAD Designer

3D is everywhere nowadays. If you look on TV, or even watch TV it could be on a 3D screen. CAD is software that actually designs 3D objects. These objects are called 3D models and they can be used for a wide variety of things. When a 3D model is completed the file can be sent directly to the manufacturer where it can be produced. CAD conversion is one of the most highly performed practices among CAD designers. The days of using blueprints... (posted by Chris 1 year 65 days ago.)
Mechanical Drafter

Mechanical drafting is the art of creating 3D models with CAD or computer aided drafting and design. These computer programs design 3D models which can be read by CNC machines and other manufacturing equipment. Mechanical drafters use special programs designed specifically for designing mechanical parts. Mechanical drafting itself is oriented towards the development of machine parts and components. These files upon completion are ready... (posted by Chris 1 year 65 days ago.)
CAD Designer Secrets

CAD Drafting is the new standard for creating technical drawings for architecture, mechanical, civil, electrical, plumbing, and more. The CAD software available today from companies like Autodesk have new built in features that allow CAD designers to design 3D models in half the time it once took. If you can take advantage of these commands, and mix that with a few secrets of the trade, it’s a recipe for precise design in half... (posted by Chris 1 year 133 days ago.)
CAD Drafter

The CAD Drafter is one who uses computer aided drafting or computer aided design software. These CAD technicians create CAD drawings, CAD design, 3D cad models, cad cam, 3d cad, isometric drawing, cad graphics, engineering drawing, working drawings, dwg drawings, and concept design to create 3D CAD models. The 3D models can be used to create anything from the Space Shuttle and all it's components to a Harley Davidson. The CAD drafter varies... (posted by Chris 1 year 226 days ago.)
2D to 3D Model

Taking a 2D blueprint and turning it into a 3D model is done with CAD or Computer Aided Design. 2D meaning two dimensional and 3D meaning 3 dimensions are on two different design wavelengths. The first, 2D has been around forever on drafting tables across the entire world. This was the main and only way to do design work since before Leonardo Davinci. Now a days we have something called CAD otherwise known as Computer Aided Drafting. This... (posted by Chris 1 year 226 days ago.)
