In a CAD supported design process you may start by a 3D conception of your model using MindCAD 3D or you may prefer to sketch on paper and then import that to MindCAD 3D using at that stage the real last (or similar) in which you want to apply your design. After that if you want to produce a digital mockup of your model you may proceed to apply materials and other 3D modeling tools in order to get with a render an almost photorealistic image of your model. But you may also not need that part and go straight away to flattening and then pattern making with our MindCAD 2D. If you have automatic cutting you can also in this stage prepare the parts for cutting optimization. Our Columbia Case Study shows one possible process.
“Today, Mind Technology's tools are essential to us because of the dynamics they offer us in the development of moulds and designs, allowing us to provide our clients with a balanced set of creative and technical CAD tools in 2D and 3D.”
