subject: Benefits Of Using 3d Cad Design & Modeling Compared To 2d Method [print this page] The design of objects using a CAD software program can be rendered in either 2D (2 Dimensional) or 3D (3 Dimensional) forms. Traditionally, hand drawn designs were 2 dimensional renderings. However, with the advent of CAD software programs, object design and modeling. can be rendered in a 3 Dimensional format. There are several advantages to rendering your designs and models in 3D. Lets have a look at those benefits.
A 2D drawing environment a designer has many restrictions, and so does the viewer. One can see the placement of the different objects using different views. However, an object that is seen in one view may not be seen in another view. All of this can result in incorrect placement of objects, and often result in object collisions.
3D Drawings and Models give a complete picture of the design, enabling you to see your object from all the sides and angles of view. Such a complete picture of your model can prove to be very helpful for you, especially when you want to ensure minimal errors in your design.
In a 3D environment, a designer can easily avoid errors in the placement of objects within the design. These objects can be placed in such a manner that they do not collide with each other. Accuracy of the measurements can also be maintained by using a 3D visualization because the designer can now clearly see which object goes where and how it looks in the overall design.
All of this combines together to create an accurate design rendering, where quantities and measurements are also correct. This results in a better estimation of quantities and materials required.
The process of conveying the ideas of the designer to the viewer is also more simple and streamlined. A 3D visualization of the design and model helps everyone get a very fair idea of what the final product will look like.
Such 3D object design and modeling processes have found their applications across a variety of industry verticals such as manufacturing, fabrication, civil and structural engineering and architecture, to name a few. All these industries have been greatly benefitted with the use of 3 Dimensional viewing of their products and have been able to provide accurate and high quality products and services to their clients.
3D design and modeling services have, over a period of time, led to the creation of highly competitive and cost effective expert services that the clients are very eager to have.
Using 3D design and modeling techniques as compared to 2D modeling, thus have several advantages, which benefit both the designer and the clients of your organization.
