3D
Solid Modeling
Solid
Modeling
is the creation of a computer-generated 3D drawing of
an object, a "Digital master model". The 3D
CAD file that is created is the same file that the Stereolithography
machines use to build from. The file format that most
SLA machines operate on is STL. Most advanced CAD programs
can export this format directly. A Digital master model
can be created from an existing object either through
'digitizing' and or reverse engineering.
Our
in house staff can assist you with you Digital master
model needs, such as 2D to 3D Drawings, Solid Model
Repair and Modification, and STL model production for
Stereolithography.
Why
Design with Digital Master Models?
The
ability to develop digital master product models with
CAE/CAD/CAM software technology has made it possible
for you to more fully understand products from a "manufacturability"
standpoint during the early design stage. The depth
and richness of the product information contained in
a digital master model makes it easier to more fully
communicate this information to everyone involved in
the product development process: including manufacturing
and production, as well as marketing, management and
your supplier network.
Digital
master models help you develop and evaluate multiple
design concepts so that the final product more closely
matches customer expectations. Quality becomes part
of the design process itself and can be built-in instead
of added-on. You'll have advance information about the
product's shape, behavior and cost long before the fabrication
of costly physical models. Digital master models help
you minimize scrap, reduce downtime and eliminate wasted
or redundant operations.
This
approach enables teams to work concurrently by providing
common ground for interrelated product development tasks.
Instead of having individuals creating one piece of
information at a time, the digital master model enables
various disciplines to work together much earlier in
the product development process, which can help reduce
time-to-market.
Helping
you bring designs to life
| That's
why so many of the world's most successful manufacturers
are using Solid Modeling to develop better products
more rapidly and more cost effectively. Develop
reliable, stable and increasingly complete master
product models.
Implement
technology with the power required by specialists,
that is also easy to use by "occasional" users
