2D Cad is Useful for Creating System Diagrams, Schematics, and Large Scaled Structures
Norman F. Simms - Electrical Mechanical Designer 215-269-0390
2D AutoCAD Drawings
3D CAD is Useful for Creating Objects and Assemblies for easy Visual and Conceptual Understanding
Norman F. Simms - Electrical Mechanical Designer 215-269-0390
3D UG-NX (IDEAS) 3D SolidWorks
3D Parametric CAD has 3 Basic Functions - To Create,Parts, Assemblies, and Drawings / Documentation
Note: Parametric means that If the part changes, the assembly and drawing will reflect the changes also

Machined Modeling
(Surface Modeling Not Shown)
Sheet Metal Modeling Weldment Modeling
Part Modeling is created by Sketches - it is assigned a Material, Specifications and you can Linked Values to a spread sheet for easy Future Modifications

Linked Values (Dimensions & Equations)
Sheet Metal Models are able to Fold and UnFold for creating Measurements

Folded Sheet Metal Part
Dimensioned Drawing
Flat Pattern
Weldments are created with 3D Sketches that are assigned an Extrude Member that generate Cut List

This presenation only shows a small part of the many capabilities of CAD technology. All the models and drawing were prepared by myself with various CAD programs.
If you are someone who is trying to understand CAD, I hope this was a help.
If you are someone who need someone to help them create new design and documentation, I hope you will use the number below and give me a call.
Thank You for Your Time.
