Computer Aided Design (CAD) is the use of software to create precise digital drawings and 3D models of products. It allows designers to visualise and modify designs quickly, ensuring accuracy and ...

PrusaSlicer has a new feature: the ability to import a CAD model for 3D printing. Starting in version 2.5.0-beta1, PrusaSlicer can import STEP format 3D models. An imported STEP file is converted t… ...

Madmix says that the 3D models are actual-size, and in sufficient detail to create close-up renders. Here are the other samples of the iPhone 14 Pro renders, with full details of the CAD files below.

Part of the challenge is that traditional CAD systems are typically history-based, meaning that the final model is built up from a base geometry or 2D sketches that are extruded, revolved and ...

Use AutoCAD's "Extrude" and "Revolve" commands to turn 2-D designs into 3-D models. "Extrude" is how 3-D modelers to refer to the technique of stretching a 2-D shape into 3-D space.

While it’s been around since the 1990s, model-based definition (MBD), a technique for semantically documenting the information necessary to manufacture and inspect parts and assemblies produced via 3D ...

Annotations on a 3D model, as describe by ASME Y14.41, tell as much about it as a drawing. Picking on geometry highlights related annotations, and picking on annotations produces more detail.
