Millwork shop drawings act as a single source of truth for all stakeholders such as architects and designers, engineers, and manufacturers across the lifecycle of the project. Thus, drawings either make or break project budgeting. Here are the top 5 ways millwork shop drawings help you achieve tight control over manufacturing overheads.
SolidWorks is the most proffered 3D CAD modeling platform and AutoCAD is non parametric, 2D CAD drawing/drafting software. SolidWorks for furniture design provides the opportunity to generate manufacturing and fabrication drawings directly from the 3D models using eDrawings, eliminating the need for paper drawings. Since the software allows automatic generation of drawings and other documentation, it becomes easier for the manufacturer to develop personalized or customized products faster. Read more.
When architects and millwork drafters work closely, resultant drawings can become properly detailed and error-free. This improves designs and cost efficiency for projects. For example, when a millwork and joinery designer from UK partnered with Hitech CAD engineers to prepare millwork detailing which lead to minimized waste and saved costs. Check out the full article.
