2.1 Modeling parts and assemblies
At the heart of the platform are the part design and assembly design modules, which model mechanical parts and assemblies respectively. This modeling is based on strong concepts now found in all modern CAD modelers on the market (Solidworks, Pro/Engineer...). These concepts enable :
solid ;
based on ;
set ;
under constraints ;
associations.
