What is CAD and 3D Modelling?

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is a sophisticated tool that helps with the creation, modification, analysis, and optimisation of designs. 3D Modelling softwares creates 3D replicas of objects and designs in a virtual space providing a realistic and dynamic view of designs and concepts. Widely employed in sectors such as engineering, architecture, entertainment, and beyond, these software applications have fundamentally reshaped how businesses develop, conceptualise, and implement ideas. These digital craftsmanship tools not only transform how businesses generate ideas but also play a pivotal role in the dynamic landscape of modern design, consistently shaping and implementing innovative concepts with precision and efficiency.

Empowering Creativity: The Influence and Necessity of Customised Workstations

Entering the world of CAD design and 3D modelling is exciting, as it allows creative ideas to become tangible through the precision of programmes like SolidWorks, CAD, and 3D modelling softwares. However, designers in these various industries often face a similar challenge: adopting generic solutions that do not meet their unique needs. In the dynamic realm of design and modelling, disruptions like lag, crashes, and overheating can hinder the creation of innovative designs. Although standardised workstation solutions are available, they adopt a one size fits all approach which fails to address the unique needs of different designers and creators. Alternatively, having a customised workstation with a thoughtful layout and hardware optimisation, can serve as the focal point of an innovative design process.

In this guide, we navigate through the advantages of customised workstations, recognizing the unique requirements of designers and creators across diverse industries. Whether you're an engineer striving for optimal technical specifications or an architect enhancing design capabilities, the analysis ahead unveils the advantages of a customised workstation over a generic one and the comprehensive solution offered by DiGiCOR to optimise your designing capabilities.

Common Challenges of Generic Workstations

Examining generic CAD workstations reveals a range of issues. From performance setbacks and compatibility issues to restricted customization and hidden expenses, understanding these challenges helps improve the CAD experience. Designers often encounter the following challenges:

● Performance:
Slow rendering and response times, crashes and overheating are common problems faced by CAD users when their workstation configurations are not optimised for CAD.

● Incompatibility:
The mismatch between hardware and software can result in disruptive glitches and system crashes.

● Limited Customization: A one size fits all solution does not consider the different requirements of designers in different sectors such as engineering, architecture and entertainment.

Hidden Costs: While a generic workstation solution may present a lower initial investment, its long-term costs can swiftly increase due to recurrent upgrade demands.

● Cost Insufficiency: Generic workstations provide a predetermined set of features and specifications, for which the client incurs costs that are both irrelevant to CAD requirements and unnecessary.
