Greetings Mechanical Engineers!
I request experienced mechanical design engineers to suggest guidelines/best practices for doing 3D CAD modelling of complicated enginnering drawing.
I received a complicated casting drawing for 3d modelling, which consists of 12 A1 sheets with 100s of views and details! I am comfortable with doing drawing from the 3d CAD model, but the reverse when it is too complicated, is too difficult.
One of my colleague suggested to import, scale and arrange all sheets in AutoCAD and then to use construction lines to easily map between the views! It helps but I wonder is there any small tricks / tips / guidelines to do 3d modelling from a complex drawing?
Any suggestion is much appreciated!
Thank you!
