Modern 3D modeling allows you to solve a range of architectural, industrial and creative tasks. The first three-dimensional models were made of several 2D images combined into one. This method is quite effort-taking, that's why designing 3D models directly is much more efficient.
In this article there are 10 facts that prove the advantage of 3D models for CNC machines.
#1
Models for software appliances and machine tools can be processed on various devices. If necessary, a 3D drawing-project can be opened on a PC or using a turning or milling machine software, which significantly expands the possibilities of working with it.
#2
It's easy to edit a model. The finished version can be easily modified even right at the production site. The adjustments are made in graphic software compatible with the 3D model format.
#3
The most common format for 3D models is STL. This is primarily due to its versatility, since it's compatible with most popular vector and graphic editors, such as Rhino, Сorel Draw, Houdini, Sculptris, ZBrush, Cinema 4d, LuxRender, 3Delight; 3DMAX, SolidWork and ProEngineering are most often used for industrial modeling.
#4
3D models make finished products significantly more accurate and detailed. To achieve maximum smoothness of the finished product the method of highly polygonal modeling is used. A polygon is a flat shape with many angles, the set of which makes up a three-dimensional figure. The more polygons, the clearer and deeper is the structure of the finished product.
#5
A model is a reliable image of the object to be. The software helps to choose the right textures that most accurately reflect the appearance of the future product.
#6
3D models are widely used for processing metal, glass, wood and other materials. Ready-made layouts loaded into the CNC machine software minimize human participation in the production process, which allows to increase the production speed and the quality of the final product. Apart from that, automation helps to increase production volumes significantly without expansion of the staff, since the equipment does not require specialized maintenance.
#7
Visualization of the production process (virtual turning and milling) helps to avoid future mistakes. Running computer tests allows to assess material strength and other important parameters.
#8
Models reduce the production time considerably, since a machine substitutes a whole group of specialists without compromising the quality. On the contrary, the quality increases because there is no human factor; the machine strictly executes the commands set in the process of designing the model.
#9
Using 3D modeling allows you to reduce the production cost. 3D models for CNC machines don't cost much and once purchased they can be used many times.
#10
There is a wide range of 3D models on the Internet, that makes it possible to produce absolutely anything. Custom production is also possible.
