DraftSight 3D Modeling Part 3 - Travailler avec des corps solides

souder des profils ensemble

In this series we’ve been looking into the 3D modeling capabilities offered by DraftSight Premium, Enterprise Plus, and Mechanical. In Part 1 we moved out of the 2D world of the XY plane and started working with the Z-axis. We also looked at different ways…

DraftSight 3D Modeling Part 2 - Création de corps solides

création de corps solides

DraftSight Premium, Enterprise Plus, and Mechanical offer users the ability to create non-parametric 3D models. Non-parametric models, often known as ‘dumb solids’ lack a feature history. Users of parametric systems like SOLIDWORKS or CATIA may have encountered them by importing models from neutral CAD formats,…
