Boundary representation (B-rep) uses mathematically defined surfaces such as cones, spheres and NURBS (non-uniform rational basis spline) which are connected by topology to accurately represent objects as water-tight volumes. B-rep models are the preferred solution for engineering, and many 3D modeling applications for the design, simulation and manufacture of consumer and industrial products are B-rep based. \r\nVirtual 3D models can be turned into physical objects through 3D printing or traditional manufacturing processes. Models can also be converted into a static image through 3D rendering, commonly used to create photo-realistic representation for sales, marketing and eCommerce applications. 3D models can be created by the process of reverse engineering, in which 3D scanning technology is used to create digital replicas of real-world objects, including manufactured parts and assemblies, free-form models designed in clay and human anatomy.

Individual programs of this class are called <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modeling applications</span> or <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modelers</span>.\r\nThree-dimensional (3D) models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. Their surfaces may be further defined with texture mapping.\r\nAlthough complex mathematical formulas are at the foundation of 3D drawing software, the programs automate computation for users and have tool-based user interfaces. 3D models are an output of 3D modeling and are based on a variety of digital representations. Boundary representation (B-rep) uses mathematically defined surfaces such as cones, spheres and NURBS (non-uniform rational basis spline) which are connected by topology to accurately represent objects as water-tight volumes. B-rep models are the preferred solution for engineering, and many 3D modeling applications for the design, simulation and manufacture of consumer and industrial products are B-rep based. \r\nVirtual 3D models can be turned into physical objects through 3D printing or traditional manufacturing processes. Models can also be converted into a static image through 3D rendering, commonly used to create photo-realistic representation for sales, marketing and eCommerce applications. 3D models can be created by the process of reverse engineering, in which 3D scanning technology is used to create digital replicas of real-world objects, including manufactured parts and assemblies, free-form models designed in clay and human anatomy. Modern 3d modeling and animation tools create and interact with a “digital twin”, which is used to develop, test, simulate and manufacture its real world counterpart as part of the product lifecycle.\r\n3D modeling is used in a wide range of fields, including engineering, architecture, entertainment, film, special effects, game development, and commercial advertising. It is an integral part of many creative careers. Engineers and architects use it to plan and design their work. Animators and game designers rely on 3D modeling tools to bring their ideas to life.

It was at General Motors that an interactive graphic production preparation system was created, and its creator, Dr. Patrick Henretti (the founder of CAD), was a manufacturing and consulting company (MCS), which had a huge impact on the development of this industry. industry. According to analysts, MCS ideas are based on almost 70% of modern CAD systems. In the early 80s, when the computing power of computers grew significantly, the first CAM packages appeared on the scene, which partially automate the production process using CNC programs and CAE products designed to analyze complex structures. Thus, by the mid-80s, the CAD system in mechanical engineering has a form that still exists. This year there were new players of the &quot;middle weight category&quot;. Increased competition has stimulated product development: thanks to a convenient graphical user interface, their use has increased significantly, new solid state modeling mechanisms ACIS and Parasolid have appeared, which are currently used in many modern CAD systems, and the functionality has been significantly expanded.\r\nAccording to the analytical company Daratech, in 1999 the sales of CAD/CAM systems increased by 11.1% over the year, in 2000 by 4.7%, in 2001 by 3.5%, and in 2002 - by 1.3% (preliminary estimate). We can say that the transition to the new century has become a turning point for the CAD market. In this situation, two main trends emerged in the foreground. A striking example of the first trend is the purchase of EDS in 2001 by two well-known developers representing CAD systems - Unigraphics and SDRC, the second is the actively promoted PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) concept, which provides access to information throughout its life cycle.\r\nTraditionally, CAD products in mechanical engineering are divided into four classes: the heavy, medium, light and mature market. Such a classification has developed historically, and although there has long been talk that the boundaries between classes are about to be erased, they remain, since the systems still differ in price and functionality. As a result, now in this area there are several powerful systems, a kind of &quot;oligarchs&quot; of the CAD world, stably developing products of the middle class and inexpensive, easy-to-use programs that are widely distributed. There is also the so-called &quot;non-class stratum of society&quot;, the role of which is performed by various specialized solutions.","materialsDescription":" <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why implement CAD?</span>\r\nAt present, computer-aided design (CAD) systems of various types are commonly used at machine-building enterprises. Over the long history of use, they have proven their effectiveness and economic feasibility. However, most system manufacturers cannot give a clear and unambiguous answer, what economic effect will the purchase of their software bring?\r\nWhen choosing one or another system, it is difficult to unambiguously understand which solution will be the most suitable for an organization and why the introduction of CAD is generally necessary? To answer these questions, it is necessary, first of all, to determine the factors by which the economic efficiency of the implementation and use of the system is achieved, as well as refer to the world experience of using CAD systems.\r\nOne of the leaders conducting research in this area is the international research agency Aberdeen Group, which, together with Autodesk, since 2007, has issued a number of reports on this topic:\r\n<ul><li>Additional strategies for building digital and physical prototypes: how to avoid a crisis situation when developing products?</li><li>System design: Development of new products for mechatronics.</li><li>Technical Change Management 2.0: Intelligent Change Management to optimize business solutions.</li><li>Design without borders. Revenue growth through the use of 3D technology.</li></ul>\r\nThe organizations participating in the research were divided into three groups according to how they fulfill their calendar and budget: 20% are best-in-class companies (leading companies), 50% are companies with industry averages and 30% are companies with results below average. Then a comparative analysis was conducted to understand which processes, ways of organizing work and technology were more often used by the best-in-class companies.\r\nAccording to the results of research, the main economic factors affecting the economic efficiency of using CAD are time and money spent on developing prototypes of products of machine-building organizations, as well as time and costs of making changes to prototypes and manufactured products.\r\nThe participating companies were also interviewed about the main factors that, in their opinion, are the most significant prerequisites for the use of computer-aided design tools.\r\n<ul><li>91% of respondents put in the first place a reduction in product design time,</li><li>in second place with 38% - reducing the cost of design,</li><li>further follow: increase in manufacturability of designed products (30%), acceleration of product modifications in accordance with the requirements of Customers (product customization) - 15%.</li></ul>\r\nAn interesting feature is that, despite the great opportunities to reduce costs, as in previous studies, the key factor is the possibility of reducing the design time.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why use CAD the best engineering companies?</span>\r\nThe functionality of CAD, which is used by machine-building enterprises to achieve the above effects, can be divided into the following main areas:\r\n<ul><li>Development of the project concept in digital format.</li><li>Creation, optimization and approval of projects.</li><li>Design of electrical and mechanical parts.</li><li>Product data management.</li><li>Visualization of product solutions, reviews, sales and marketing.</li></ul>\r\nIt should be noted that the product data management functionality relates more to PDM / PLM solutions, however, computer-aided design systems are an integral part of them.","iconURL":"https://old.roi4cio.com/fileadmin/user_upload/CAD_for_mechanical_engineering_-_Computer-Aided_Design.png"}],"characteristics":[],"concurentProducts":[],"jobRoles":[],"organizationalFeatures":[],"complementaryCategories":[],"solutions":[],"materials":[],"useCases":[],"best_practices":[],"values":[],"implementations":[]}],"countries":[],"startDate":"0000-00-00","endDate":"0000-00-00","dealDate":"0000-00-00","price":0,"status":"finished","statusLabel":"Finished","isImplementation":true,"isAgreement":false,"confirmed":1,"implementationDetails":{"businessObjectives":{"id":14,"title":"Business objectives","translationKey":"businessObjectives","options":[{"id":10,"title":"Ensure Compliance"},{"id":307,"title":"Enhance Competitive Ability"}]},"businessProcesses":{"id":11,"title":"Business process","translationKey":"businessProcesses","options":[{"id":401,"title":"No control over implementation"},{"id":400,"title":"High costs"}]}},"categories":[{"id":581,"title":"3D model Design","alias":"3d-model-design","description":" In 3D computer graphics, <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">3D modeling</span> is the process of developing a mathematical representation of any surface of an object (either inanimate or living) in three dimensions via specialized software.

Increased competition has stimulated product development: thanks to a convenient graphical user interface, their use has increased significantly, new solid state modeling mechanisms ACIS and Parasolid have appeared, which are currently used in many modern CAD systems, and the functionality has been significantly expanded.\r\nAccording to the analytical company Daratech, in 1999 the sales of CAD/CAM systems increased by 11.1% over the year, in 2000 by 4.7%, in 2001 by 3.5%, and in 2002 - by 1.3% (preliminary estimate). We can say that the transition to the new century has become a turning point for the CAD market. In this situation, two main trends emerged in the foreground. A striking example of the first trend is the purchase of EDS in 2001 by two well-known developers representing CAD systems - Unigraphics and SDRC, the second is the actively promoted PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) concept, which provides access to information throughout its life cycle.\r\nTraditionally, CAD products in mechanical engineering are divided into four classes: the heavy, medium, light and mature market. Such a classification has developed historically, and although there has long been talk that the boundaries between classes are about to be erased, they remain, since the systems still differ in price and functionality. As a result, now in this area there are several powerful systems, a kind of &quot;oligarchs&quot; of the CAD world, stably developing products of the middle class and inexpensive, easy-to-use programs that are widely distributed. There is also the so-called &quot;non-class stratum of society&quot;, the role of which is performed by various specialized solutions.","materialsDescription":" <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why implement CAD?</span>\r\nAt present, computer-aided design (CAD) systems of various types are commonly used at machine-building enterprises. Over the long history of use, they have proven their effectiveness and economic feasibility. However, most system manufacturers cannot give a clear and unambiguous answer, what economic effect will the purchase of their software bring?\r\nWhen choosing one or another system, it is difficult to unambiguously understand which solution will be the most suitable for an organization and why the introduction of CAD is generally necessary? To answer these questions, it is necessary, first of all, to determine the factors by which the economic efficiency of the implementation and use of the system is achieved, as well as refer to the world experience of using CAD systems.\r\nOne of the leaders conducting research in this area is the international research agency Aberdeen Group, which, together with Autodesk, since 2007, has issued a number of reports on this topic:\r\n<ul><li>Additional strategies for building digital and physical prototypes: how to avoid a crisis situation when developing products?</li><li>System design: Development of new products for mechatronics.</li><li>Technical Change Management 2.0: Intelligent Change Management to optimize business solutions.</li><li>Design without borders.

Then a comparative analysis was conducted to understand which processes, ways of organizing work and technology were more often used by the best-in-class companies.\r\nAccording to the results of research, the main economic factors affecting the economic efficiency of using CAD are time and money spent on developing prototypes of products of machine-building organizations, as well as time and costs of making changes to prototypes and manufactured products.\r\nThe participating companies were also interviewed about the main factors that, in their opinion, are the most significant prerequisites for the use of computer-aided design tools.\r\n<ul><li>91% of respondents put in the first place a reduction in product design time,</li><li>in second place with 38% - reducing the cost of design,</li><li>further follow: increase in manufacturability of designed products (30%), acceleration of product modifications in accordance with the requirements of Customers (product customization) - 15%.</li></ul>\r\nAn interesting feature is that, despite the great opportunities to reduce costs, as in previous studies, the key factor is the possibility of reducing the design time.\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why use CAD the best engineering companies?</span>\r\nThe functionality of CAD, which is used by machine-building enterprises to achieve the above effects, can be divided into the following main areas:\r\n<ul><li>Development of the project concept in digital format.</li><li>Creation, optimization and approval of projects.</li><li>Design of electrical and mechanical parts.</li><li>Product data management.</li><li>Visualization of product solutions, reviews, sales and marketing.</li></ul>\r\nIt should be noted that the product data management functionality relates more to PDM / PLM solutions, however, computer-aided design systems are an integral part of them.","iconURL":"https://old.roi4cio.com/fileadmin/user_upload/CAD_for_mechanical_engineering_-_Computer-Aided_Design.png"}],"additionalInfo":{"budgetNotExceeded":"","functionallyTaskAssignment":"","projectWasPut":"","price":0,"source":{"url":"https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/blog/mjk-performance-motorcycle-parts/","title":"Web-site of vendor"}},"comments":[],"referencesCount":0},"autodesk-fusion-360-for-orange-county-choppers":{"id":563,"title":"Autodesk Fusion 360 for Orange County Choppers","description":"Orange County Choppers (OCC), the focus of Discovery Channel’s long-running American Chopper, is known for its Easy Rider-style motorcycles — complete with loud V-twin gas engines. The design emerged from the mind of OCC designer Jason Pohl as he riffed on the concept of “fusion” as part of OCC’s collaboration with the Autodesk Fusion 360 team.\r\nOCC has been making motorcycles since 1999, when company founder Paul Teutul Sr. started building custom bikes in the basement of his house. He started it for fun, but soon his unique designs attracted lots of attention. Discovery Channel took notice, and Teutul built a fabrication shop attached to his iron and steel business in upstate New York to keep up with demand.\r\nPohl first encountered OCC in 2004, not long after he had graduated from art school in his native Illinois. Paul was creating animations for a video game that featured OCC bikes. Teutul liked his work, and figured that the kind of 3D modeling used in the game could be translated into designs for real motorcycles.\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“I’m way more of an artist than I am a geek,” Paul says, but even when he was in school he knew that he needed to learn software for the sake of his career. “I wanted to be a designer,” he says, “so I forcedmyself, kicking and screaming, to learn how to use the computer to my advantage.”</span></span>\r\nEarlier Paul met a member of the Autodesk staff who encouraged him to try Fusion 360 for a design.<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> “I was a SolidWorks guy,” he admits. “I was terrified to switch. It’s like jumping into the deep end of the pool.”</span></span> <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Once he started using it, though, he thought “Wow, this is incredible. It is really a magic show.”</span></span> In comparison to everything he had used before, it was “cleaner” and “snappier.” <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">As he puts it, “You don’t really wait on anything — it just happens.”</span></span>\r\nHe uses the example of designing the new bike’s headlight assembly using T-splines in Fusion 360.<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> In SolidWorks, he says, “I would probably need a solid day just to get the lofts going and the surfaces going.”</span></span> The process would have involved using three different features in SolidWorks to rotate, move, and scale the surface model, then laboriously exporting everything into Mastercam to prepare the design for manufacture.\r\nWith T-splines, by contrast, you just click and drag to alter position, shape, or size. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“It’s like a digital version of clay,” Paul says.</span></span> <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">He laughs when he adds, “except when you’re pushing it around it doesn’t leave thumbprints.”</span></span>\r\nPaul has found that the integrated CAM is much easier in Fusion 360. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“I use it every day now,” he says. “It’s a game changer for me. I just have more power to take a concept, model it up, and then take it to a CNC machine.”</span></span> He and the OCC machinist have also used Fusion 360 to export DXF files for use on their water jet machine to make some of the metal parts.\r\nThe very first thing Paul tackled in Fusion 360 was the entire body assembly for the electric bike. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">He laughs at his own ambition when he adds, “I didn’t start off and make a kickstand, know what I mean?”</span></span>\r\nWanting to create a bike that would be totally different, he lit upon the idea of making the new design a true “fusion” in every sense. Unlike the long-forked choppers OCC usually makes, this bike is an urban“hopper” — lightweight and with lots of ground clearance. Using an electric motor allowed Paul to eliminate the exhaust system and V-twin engine of other OCC designs, which “opened up a whole new world of possibilities.\r\nIn line with the “fusion” idea, the bike incorporates components inspired by other types of vehicles: the aluminum front end of a sport bike, the gas shocks of a snowmobile, and the rear sprocket of a motocross racer, along with high-durability plastic elements and a few key parts in titanium.\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“It was something new, fresh for us to do,” Pohl says, adding that every part of the new design came out of Fusion 360.</span></span>\r\nGiven the success of the project, Teutul wants the team to use Fusion 360 to design a new line of aftermarket parts for Harleys. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Pohl describes Fusion 360 as “a new weapon in my arsenal here.”</span></span>","alias":"autodesk-fusion-360-for-orange-county-choppers","roi":0,"seo":{"title":"Autodesk Fusion 360 for Orange County Choppers","keywords":"","description":"Orange County Choppers (OCC), the focus of Discovery Channel’s long-running American Chopper, is known for its Easy Rider-style motorcycles — complete with loud V-twin gas engines.

The model can also be physically created using 3D printing devices.\r\n3D modeling can be achieved manually with specialized 3D model design software, such as <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">computer-aided design</span> (CAD) programs, that lets an artist create and deform polygonal surfaces or by scanning real-world objects into a set of data points that can be used to represent the object digitally.\r\nSoftware to create 3D models is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modeling applications</span> or <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modelers</span>.\r\nThree-dimensional (3D) models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. Their surfaces may be further defined with texture mapping.\r\nAlthough complex mathematical formulas are at the foundation of 3D drawing software, the programs automate computation for users and have tool-based user interfaces. 3D models are an output of 3D modeling and are based on a variety of digital representations. Boundary representation (B-rep) uses mathematically defined surfaces such as cones, spheres and NURBS (non-uniform rational basis spline) which are connected by topology to accurately represent objects as water-tight volumes. B-rep models are the preferred solution for engineering, and many 3D modeling applications for the design, simulation and manufacture of consumer and industrial products are B-rep based. \r\nVirtual 3D models can be turned into physical objects through 3D printing or traditional manufacturing processes. Models can also be converted into a static image through 3D rendering, commonly used to create photo-realistic representation for sales, marketing and eCommerce applications. 3D models can be created by the process of reverse engineering, in which 3D scanning technology is used to create digital replicas of real-world objects, including manufactured parts and assemblies, free-form models designed in clay and human anatomy. Modern 3d modeling and animation tools create and interact with a “digital twin”, which is used to develop, test, simulate and manufacture its real world counterpart as part of the product lifecycle.\r\n3D modeling is used in a wide range of fields, including engineering, architecture, entertainment, film, special effects, game development, and commercial advertising. It is an integral part of many creative careers. Engineers and architects use it to plan and design their work. Animators and game designers rely on 3D modeling tools to bring their ideas to life. And just about every Hollywood blockbuster uses 3D modeling for special effects, to cut costs, and to speed up production.\r\n\r\n\r\n","materialsDescription":"<h1 class=\"align-center\">Criteria to consider when choosing between 3D software programs</h1>\r\nThere is a wide range of 3D modeling and animation software addressing <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">different fields of activity</span>.

It was at General Motors that an interactive graphic production preparation system was created, and its creator, Dr. Patrick Henretti (the founder of CAD), was a manufacturing and consulting company (MCS), which had a huge impact on the development of this industry. industry. According to analysts, MCS ideas are based on almost 70% of modern CAD systems. In the early 80s, when the computing power of computers grew significantly, the first CAM packages appeared on the scene, which partially automate the production process using CNC programs and CAE products designed to analyze complex structures. Thus, by the mid-80s, the CAD system in mechanical engineering has a form that still exists. This year there were new players of the &quot;middle weight category&quot;.

We can say that the transition to the new century has become a turning point for the CAD market. In this situation, two main trends emerged in the foreground. A striking example of the first trend is the purchase of EDS in 2001 by two well-known developers representing CAD systems - Unigraphics and SDRC, the second is the actively promoted PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) concept, which provides access to information throughout its life cycle.\r\nTraditionally, CAD products in mechanical engineering are divided into four classes: the heavy, medium, light and mature market. Such a classification has developed historically, and although there has long been talk that the boundaries between classes are about to be erased, they remain, since the systems still differ in price and functionality. As a result, now in this area there are several powerful systems, a kind of &quot;oligarchs&quot; of the CAD world, stably developing products of the middle class and inexpensive, easy-to-use programs that are widely distributed. There is also the so-called &quot;non-class stratum of society&quot;, the role of which is performed by various specialized solutions.","materialsDescription":" <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Why implement CAD?</span>\r\nAt present, computer-aided design (CAD) systems of various types are commonly used at machine-building enterprises. Over the long history of use, they have proven their effectiveness and economic feasibility. However, most system manufacturers cannot give a clear and unambiguous answer, what economic effect will the purchase of their software bring?\r\nWhen choosing one or another system, it is difficult to unambiguously understand which solution will be the most suitable for an organization and why the introduction of CAD is generally necessary? To answer these questions, it is necessary, first of all, to determine the factors by which the economic efficiency of the implementation and use of the system is achieved, as well as refer to the world experience of using CAD systems.\r\nOne of the leaders conducting research in this area is the international research agency Aberdeen Group, which, together with Autodesk, since 2007, has issued a number of reports on this topic:\r\n<ul><li>Additional strategies for building digital and physical prototypes: how to avoid a crisis situation when developing products?</li><li>System design: Development of new products for mechatronics.</li><li>Technical Change Management 2.0: Intelligent Change Management to optimize business solutions.</li><li>Design without borders.

The product is called a <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">3D model.</span> Someone who works with 3D models may be referred to as a <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">3D artist.</span> It can be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D rendering or used in a computer simulation of physical phenomena. The model can also be physically created using 3D printing devices.\r\n3D modeling can be achieved manually with specialized 3D model design software, such as <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">computer-aided design</span> (CAD) programs, that lets an artist create and deform polygonal surfaces or by scanning real-world objects into a set of data points that can be used to represent the object digitally.\r\nSoftware to create 3D models is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modeling applications</span> or <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modelers</span>.\r\nThree-dimensional (3D) models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. Their surfaces may be further defined with texture mapping.\r\nAlthough complex mathematical formulas are at the foundation of 3D drawing software, the programs automate computation for users and have tool-based user interfaces. 3D models are an output of 3D modeling and are based on a variety of digital representations. Boundary representation (B-rep) uses mathematically defined surfaces such as cones, spheres and NURBS (non-uniform rational basis spline) which are connected by topology to accurately represent objects as water-tight volumes. B-rep models are the preferred solution for engineering, and many 3D modeling applications for the design, simulation and manufacture of consumer and industrial products are B-rep based. \r\nVirtual 3D models can be turned into physical objects through 3D printing or traditional manufacturing processes. Models can also be converted into a static image through 3D rendering, commonly used to create photo-realistic representation for sales, marketing and eCommerce applications. 3D models can be created by the process of reverse engineering, in which 3D scanning technology is used to create digital replicas of real-world objects, including manufactured parts and assemblies, free-form models designed in clay and human anatomy. Modern 3d modeling and animation tools create and interact with a “digital twin”, which is used to develop, test, simulate and manufacture its real world counterpart as part of the product lifecycle.\r\n3D modeling is used in a wide range of fields, including engineering, architecture, entertainment, film, special effects, game development, and commercial advertising. It is an integral part of many creative careers. Engineers and architects use it to plan and design their work. Animators and game designers rely on 3D modeling tools to bring their ideas to life. And just about every Hollywood blockbuster uses 3D modeling for special effects, to cut costs, and to speed up production.\r\n\r\n\r\n","materialsDescription":"<h1 class=\"align-center\">Criteria to consider when choosing between 3D software programs</h1>\r\nThere is a wide range of 3D modeling and animation software addressing <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">different fields of activity</span>.

For example, a project about the creation of jewelry does not require the same 3D object software as a project of creation of aircraft models.\r\nAre you using a 3D drawing software for 3d printing, Laser Cutting or just for creating some digital art?

Alternatively, you can use the student license or the educational license that some design suites provide. Otherwise, there is various good quality 3D modeling app and software that is available for free and is equally good as professional options.

At night, he perfects designs for SandFlo Golf‘s custom putters. He’s come to rely on Fusion 360 to help him follow both of those passions.\r\nSandflo started using Fusion 360 in the shop late in 2014 after he stumbled across it on YouTube. Once he downloaded a trial version, it didn’t take him long to get hooked, especially considering the responsiveness of the Autodesk team and user community online. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“I tried it for a few weeks,” he says, “and haven’t looked back.”</span></span>\r\nIn the job shop, CAM reigns supreme, especially for setting toolpaths. Sandflo particularly likes Fusion 360’s “awesome” adaptive clearing functionality for roughing out machined parts. In the past he’s used about ten different CAM applications, most recently a combination of Mastercam and OneCNC, but found that none of them worked as well: <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“Nothing compares to Fusion 360 for the kind of jobs that I do.”</span></span>\r\nWhen getting started with Fusion 360, Sandflo explains,<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> “I went down the CAM side first,then kind of discovered the CAD side.”</span></span> The CAD features make it simple for him to streamline his machining work, for example by taking a customer drawing and turning it into a proper CAD model.\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Sandflo says he believes that “I have an advantage over other companies my size when I use Fusion 360.”</span></span> In part that comes from the software’s functionality and cloud-based approach. But he also says that the thinking and interactions around the software are a refreshing departure from the rigid enterprise model that typically prevails.<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> “It’s a modern take on it,” he says. “It’s not like anything else in the industry.”</span></span>\r\nAnd then there are the costs. Not only is Fusion 360 much cheaper than comparable programs, but you don’t have to pay extra for training. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“It’s amazingly affordable,” Sandflo says, adding, “Why would you use something that’s ten or twenty times more expensive?</span></span> I can invest that money elsewhere to make the business grow.”\r\nEven better, the software has allowed Sandflo to extend his passion for golf. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">It makes him happy “to get a few hours in with friends, have a good laugh,” he says.</span></span>\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“Being a golf nerd,” he adds, “it’s always fun [tinkering] with equipment.” He began to look online for clubs that were “exotic, more personalized,” and then realized he could make his own. As he puts it, “I have the knowledge to do something like this myself. I have the machines. Why not start modeling something, see what happens?”</span></span>\r\nBefore he discovered Fusion 360, it was slow going. He didn’t have enough CAD skills to do what he wanted to, and found the combination of SolidWorks and Mastercam unwieldy. Then everything changed. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“When I found Fusion 360, that was the turning point,” he says.</span></span>\r\n<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“To make the changes — the small iterations, the small tweaks — it is so easy,” he adds. Fusion 360’s cloud-based approach is especially useful for him because it lets him squeeze in design work whenever he has time. “For me as a small business owner,” he says, “the ability to work at home at night when the kids are asleep is second to none. It’s so easy and convenient, and you have all the files available at a mouse click. . . . When I get to work the next day, it’s all done. So I can keep the machines turning.”</span></span>\r\nUsing Fusion 360, he’s able to share putter designs with customers via a simple URL. Even if they’ve never used the software, it’s easy for the customer to view and rotate a 3D model of the latest design in any browser. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">“My customers have enjoyed that very much,” he says.</span></span>","alias":"autodesk-fusion-360-for-putter-manufacturer-sandflo-golf","roi":0,"seo":{"title":"Autodesk Fusion 360 for putter manufacturer SandFlo Golf","keywords":"","description":"In the town of Trollhättan in southwestern Sweden, engineer Johan Sandflo spends his days managing his precision machining business.

Individual programs of this class are called <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modeling applications</span> or <span style=\"font-weight: bold; \">modelers</span>.\r\nThree-dimensional (3D) models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surfaces, etc. Being a collection of data (points and other information), 3D models can be created by hand, algorithmically (procedural modeling), or scanned. Their surfaces may be further defined with texture mapping.\r\nAlthough complex mathematical formulas are at the foundation of 3D drawing software, the programs automate computation for users and have tool-based user interfaces. 3D models are an output of 3D modeling and are based on a variety of digital representations. Boundary representation (B-rep) uses mathematically defined surfaces such as cones, spheres and NURBS (non-uniform rational basis spline) which are connected by topology to accurately represent objects as water-tight volumes. B-rep models are the preferred solution for engineering, and many 3D modeling applications for the design, simulation and manufacture of consumer and industrial products are B-rep based. \r\nVirtual 3D models can be turned into physical objects through 3D printing or traditional manufacturing processes. Models can also be converted into a static image through 3D rendering, commonly used to create photo-realistic representation for sales, marketing and eCommerce applications. 3D models can be created by the process of reverse engineering, in which 3D scanning technology is used to create digital replicas of real-world objects, including manufactured parts and assemblies, free-form models designed in clay and human anatomy. Modern 3d modeling and animation tools create and interact with a “digital twin”, which is used to develop, test, simulate and manufacture its real world counterpart as part of the product lifecycle.\r\n3D modeling is used in a wide range of fields, including engineering, architecture, entertainment, film, special effects, game development, and commercial advertising. It is an integral part of many creative careers. Engineers and architects use it to plan and design their work. Animators and game designers rely on 3D modeling tools to bring their ideas to life.
