MBD is the practice of using intelligent 3D CAD models, not just drawings, as the complete source of information for designing, manufacturing, and inspecting products.
3D Geometry
The core shape of the product.
PMI
Product Manufacturing Information (tolerances, finishes, material specs, etc.) directly embedded in the model.
Standards-Based Approach
Adherence to ASME Y14.41 or ISO 16792 for clear communication.

The Tangible Benefits of MBD
Reduced Errors and Rework
Eliminate misinterpretations of drawings, leading to fewer downstream manufacturing issues..
Increased Collaboration
Every team works from the same up-to-date data, reducing miscommunication.
Improved Automation
MBD data can directly drive CNC machines, CMMs, and other manufacturing equipment.
Faster Time-To-Market
Information flows seamlessly from design to manufacturing, cutting production lead times.
Enhanced Design Clarity
3D visualization and embedded PMI make complex information easy to understand.
Up to 30% Savings in development
By reducing errors and streamlining the design-to-production process, MBD can save you millions in development costs.
