Hi Matt. I was thinking same as you do two weeks ago. MBD is a lot more than "replacing standard dwg", these info is embedded in CAD files to be used down the processes, i.e. CMM, CAM programming... And a lot more... It saves lots of time, errors later on
@@vesperita11 Yeah, this is true. MBD's should be approached with same degree of attention to detail as a standard drawing. If MBD's become CAD the Master, can you call materials in your MBD? What is your part going to be made of? If you're going to paint your part, can you call out a paint spec in your MBD, can you call out other process like anodizing? To control overall cost, can you add your own "general tolerance" notes? There are other items such release engineer, checker, material engineer, etc... Would these appear in one of the MBD frames, or on a separate document? Thx.

Have you had success with MBD replacing standard drawings? Or is this more of a supplemental thing?
Yes.

@@vesperita11 Does it support STEP242 standard? Can it be imported into CMM?
