Design Thinking
As we talked about design skills, generative Design, 3D modeling, and other issues on our blog page, we found something really curious. What is on engineer’s and designer’s minds when handling a project? We asked ourselves with this question because, mostly, when you do a modeling project, a digital design, for example, you have to […]
CMM: Coordinate Measuring Machine
In manufacturing end-user and production parts, it is critical that the object’s physical dimensions and geometric properties suit those 3D models on which its design was based on. Even if a calculation is just marginally off, it can jeopardize the entire manufacturing cycle and set you back to square one. This is why coordinate measuring […]
Chamfer: What You Need To Know
Although it’s one of the major aims, avoiding sharp corners isn’t the only reason why machinists perform chamfering, beveling and filleting operations on a workpiece. Machinists often smoothen the edges of machine parts in order to minimize the damage that may bay be caused due to the sharp edge of the workpiece and to give […]
Most Humorous Engineering Jokes to Ease Your Day
Engineering is a field that has been around before the days of Imhotep, the first recorded engineer from ancient Egypt and the builder of the Step Pyramid, it’s a field that has deeply rooted itself in our affairs since man instinctively began making his own bed. By now you should know that the engineer’s job […]
Enscape: The Game-Changing Architecture Plugin.
Long before Enscape entered architectural rendering, presenting a 3D CAD design properly was one thing that lay at the heart of an excellent design, and something designers strived to achieve when it came to satisfying their clients. But the purpose of presenting a model properly would be difficult to achieve, perhaps impossible, if the client […]
Hard Surface & Organic Modeling
Researching the modeling and animation market, going after tutorials, online courses, and even face-to-face courses, we felt most of the contents never taught the complete (and essential) process of 3D Modeling. It brings several problems for any designer or engineer when working with real projects because the type of work is still too simple or […]
Markforged and 3D Metal Printing
At the moment, 3D Printing is considered the pinnacle of all printing technologies but even for this top-level printing technology, the holy grail of 3D printing are Metal 3D Printers, and Markforged printers like the Markforged Metal X are among the best and most recognized models in the industry. The first patent for Metal 3D […]
Sheet Metal Tools
Unarguably sheet metals are crucial to engineering manufacturing. From aircraft and cars to electronics and medical implants, the use of metal, particularly sheet metal, has come a long way and anyone with an idea of the processes involved in working sheet metal would agree that it’s impossible to worksheet metal without utilizing sheet metal tools. […]
Bevel Gears
Introduction to Gears, and SolidFace Bevel Gears To better understand bevel gears, we need to understand what the regular gear is. Gears form a crucial part of various machines and mechanically driven motors, that help us do work. The main function of a gear system is to help change the speed, torque, and direction of […]
What Is Digital Design?
Why SolidFace is your digital design solution. Computers have changed the way we view and interact with the world, and it would not be different in design. Artists, engineers, architects, and many other professionals have adopted new ways of creating projects, utilizing what we know as digital design. Through aesthetics, texture, formats, colors, and images, […]
