Converting from 3-d Models to 2-d dimensional dwg's
Converting from 3-d Models to 2-d dimensional dwg's
(OP)
Hi,
I am currently working on modeling all our products in the 3-d state. We manufacture boxes. I want to know if once these 3-d models are created on MechDesktop they can then be viewed as 2-d dimensional drawings quickly and easily. Is MechDesktop the software that I want for a task like this? We want 3-d models to satisfy the growing desire of the consumer to be able to rotate, open, and view our products online, but also need the 2-d drwings still to show the internal volume of our enclosures to allow the customers to see what they can put inside the box. Does anyone have some recommendations on what program to use and how well MechDesktop can do the things mentioned above?
Thanks,
Zack

RE: Converting from 3-d Models to 2-d dimensional dwg's
Of course you can do that, but first if you are seeking a new software, you can have way better than MDT, because a software like Solid Edge, Solid Works or Inventor can do this and have viewer incorporated that you can send to your customer for him to be able to see the model, rotate it and whatever. These software have built in fonctionality for this kind of task, that MDT doesn't have.
So unless you only have MDT, check out these software and ask for demonstrations.
Good luck
