Why Create 2D CAD Drawings When You Have 3D CAD Models?

2D & 3D Drafting:

2D Drafting is the creation of accurate representations of objects for manufacturing and engineering needs as both in the architectural and mechanical world. 3D or three-dimensional computer-aided design is a technology for the design and technical documentation, which replaces manual drafting with an automated process.

It's Difference:

The main difference between them is that 3D objects have height, width, and depth, while the 2D objects only have height and width. Because objects in the real world are 3-dimensional and they have depth. A drawing on paper is often in 2D, but the linear perspective is the process of creating a 2D image that appears to be 3-Dimensional in view.

Why Choose 2D CAD drafting for Modelling Items?

•        Even though the greater proportion of all design works these days are carried in the 3D format designs, 2D drafting continues its legacy as the most viable option to Share information about an assembly of design either in 3d architectural animation or 3d mechanical animation.

•        With the 2D drafting, distributing or sharing a collection of drawings within the entire project team becomes immensely easier than 3D one.

•        CAD drafting allows the designers to make the best out of 2D legacy data quickly. They can draw full-scale diagrams with absolute freedom and without having to focus on scaling the design every time.

•        The individual diagrams can be presented in multiple viewports, thus ensuring that they represent multiple areas of the design without requiring any additional effort and effects. Apart from that CAD drafting makes parametric drawing layouts as easy as a walk in the park or like so.

•        Almost all 2D drafting software available today such as Revit, ProE, Tekla, and AutoCAD are designed to provide a unified and convenient platform for the product fabricators, designers as well as contractors to share all essential project data in real-time. That's indeed a key benefit for leaving out the scope for any delay or confusion in the product development process.

Some of the key benefits of 2D drafting are:

1.      Precise drawings that leave no scope for any error or whatsoever

2.      Simplified documentation of the project

3.      Simplified and disciplined archiving of the drafting

4.      Time-efficient retrieval process of the designs and documentations

5.      For anyone working on a global scale, this will make collaboration more efficient and effective

6.      Data safety, Flexible design, Time saving one, Error-free, and Cost-effective

7.       These electronic sketches and drawings are much easier to share and communicate

8.      The digital 2D CAD designs are much easier to amend and accommodating changes in the design for the future.
