CAD
Drafting is the use of computer technology to aid in the
drafting process by creating 2D drawings (fabrication drawings)
based on three dimensional CAD models. Most of high end software
allow for parametric changes of the models and drawings. Never
the less technical drawings are very important part in
manufacturing of any product particularly considering the
manufacturing tolerances and manufacturing process. In many
events features for CAD models may be created in different
manner and reference differently than required for technical
fabrication drawings.
For parts and components which are
communicated electronically with suppliers it is advisable to
have appropriate fabrication to communicate tolerances, quality
Inspection parameters and other parameters which can not be
explained using universal 3D file formats such as E.g. paint
color etc.)
DESIGNLORE pays high attention to value of the
technical and fabrication drawings using it as final inspection
of the design and proposed manufacturing process prior to
release for prototyping or manufacturing.
