3D BASICS  

 

      3D CAD Modeling is used in a wide variety of industries. In the medical industry to create detailed models of organs and devices for surgery.  The movie industry to create and manipulate characters and objects for animated and real-life motion pictures.  The video game industry uses them to create assets for video games. The science sector uses them to create highly detailed models of chemical compounds. The architecture industry to create models of proposed buildings and landscapes. The engineering community to design new devices, vehicles and structures as well as a host of other uses. There are typically many stages in the "pipeline" that artists use to create 3D objects for film, games, and production of hard goods and structures.

 

    In today's economy, market pressures to respond to ever-changing consumer needs have never been greater. These changes shorten product life cycles and increase the need for customized products.

 

    Companies which can respond to these consumer demands will be more successful than others. The potential benefits to companies moving to 3D CAD technology are extensive and meaningful to the bottom line, more profit for the company. Some of these benefits are:

 

• Concurrent engineering (CE) - Engineering and manufacturing process are enabled simultaneously from shared 3D CAD data.

• Higher quality - Due to increased efficiency resulting from the ability to explore a greater number of design iterations during product development.

• Lower unit costs - Due to reduced development and prototype expenses.

• Rapid prototyping (RP) - 3D CAD models can be used to produce prototypes from Stereolithography and other RP technologies.

• Key Advantages - Improve Production Efficiency Product To Market Speed Form, Fit & Function Visualize Before Prototyping On The Fly Product Design Changes Exchange File Data Between Manufacturers and Equipment Used For Production Rendering Simulate Plastics And Other Types of resins, Metals And Materials Before Manufacturing 3D Model Used To Achieve Photorealistic Renderings For Print, Web & Media Marketing.
