Modern CAD Tools Used in Mechanical Design

Abstract

This paper aims to present synthetically as many of those tools that are part of Mechanical Desktop 2008 software with notable performance in the CAD environment and to justify this performance by the presentation of the author's work in the design of the fittings used in furniture manufacturing. Specifically in this work is concerned with the 3D models of the sheet metal parts that form a set of buried type hinge. The author also attempts to show that by even if Mechanical; Desktop 2008 has no instruments of “Sheet Metal”, it can still be achieved with additional effort and within certain geometric restrictions of the tin cast pieces into molds category
