Drafter Engineer

who is drafter? 
      A drafter, draughtsman (British English) or draftsman, drafting technician (American English and Canadian English) is a person who makes detailed technical drawings or plans for machinery, buildings, electronics, infrastructure, sections, etc. Drafters use software and manual sketches to convert the designs, plans, and layouts of engineers and architects into a set of technical drawings. Drafters operate as the supporting developers and sketch engineering designs and drawings from preliminary design concepts. This job ussualy use CAD program to support drafter making some design industry ( in this era)

Drafter History
     Long times ago many engineer cant use CAD programs, because you know in past time ago computer is rare so in the past drafters sat at drawing boards and used pencils, pens, compasses, protractors, triangles, and other drafting devices to prepare a drawing by hand. From the 1980s through 1990s, board drawings were going out of style as the newly developed computer-aided design (CAD) system was released and was able to produce technical drawings at a faster pace. Many modern drafters operate computer-assisted drafting equipment and software such as AutoCAD, Vectorworks, Revit, or Solidworks but board drafting still remains the base of the CAD system. Consequently, drafters may also be casually referred to as CAD operators, engineering draftspersons, or engineering technicians.
     With CAD systems, drafters can create and store drawings electronically so that they can be viewed, printed, or programmed directly into automated manufacturing systems. CAD systems also permit drafters to quickly prepare variations of a design. Although drafters use CAD extensively, it is only a tool. Drafters still need knowledge of traditional drafting techniques, in addition to CAD skills. Despite the near global use of CAD systems, manual drafting and sketching are used in certain applications.
Drafters drawings provide visual guidelines and show how to construct a product or structure. Drawings include technical details and specify dimensions, materials, and procedures. Drafters fill in technical details using drawings, rough sketches, specifications, and calculations made by engineers, surveyors, architects, or scientists. For example, drafters use their knowledge of standardized building techniques to draw in the details of a structure. Some use their understanding of engineering and manufacturing theory and standards to draw the parts of a machine; they determine design elements, such as the numbers and kinds of fasteners needed to assemble the machine. Drafters use technical handbooks, tables, calculators, and computers to complete their work.

APA SIH KELEBIHAN SOLIDWORKS???

SOLIDWORKS Solidworks adalah salah satu CAD (Computer Aided Design) software yang dipublikasikan oleh   DASSAULT SYSTEMES.  s oftware ini  sering sekali kita temukan digunakan untuk merancang komponen manufacturing entah itu permesinan, furniture, dan sebagainya yang membutuhkan part, assembly, dan berbagai analysis dengan tampilan 3D. Pada  tahun 1995 secara resmi software solidworks diperkenalkan di publik menyusul software manufacture lainnya yang lebih dulu di rilis kepasar (Pro-ENGINEER, NX Siemens, I-Deas, Unigraphics, Autodesk Inventor, Autodeks AutoCAD dan CATIA).  Seiring perkembangan zaman saat ini banyak sekali perusahaan di Indonesia melirik software yang satu ini, menurut informasi Wikipedia, SolidWorks saat ini digunakan oleh lebih dari 3/4 juta insinyur dan desainer di lebih dari 80.000 perusahaan di seluruh dunia.  Untuk permodelan pada industri Furniture dalam hal pembuatan pattern nya, program program 3D seperti ini sangat membantu sebab akan memudahkan ope

MENGENAL KELEBIHAN AUTODESK INVENTOR

Autodesk Inventor    Autodesk salah satu produk dari Autodesk Corp. yang di peruntukkan untuk engineering design dan drawing . Autodesk Inventor merupakan produk dari CAD setelah Autocad dan Autodesk Mechanical Desktop.      Autodesk Inventor memiliki beberapa kelebihan dari Pada Autocad sehingga memudahkan Drafter dalam design  serta tampilan yang lebih menarik dan real . Keunggulan Autodesk Inventor adalah : 1. Memiliki kemampuan Parametic Solid Modeling , yaitu kemampuan untuk melakukan  design serta pengeditan dalam bentuk solid model dengan data yang telah tersimpan dalam data base. Dengan adannya kemampuan tersebut drafter/engineer dapat merevisi atau memodivikasi design yang ada tampa harus mendesign ulang sebagian atau seluruhnya . 2. Memiliki kemampuan Animation , yaitu kemampuan untuk menganimasikan suatu file assembly mengenai jalannya suatu alat yang telah di assembly dan dapat disimpan dalam file AVI. 3. Memiliki kemampuan Automatic Create Technical 2D draw

Pengenalan surface pada Solidworks ( solidworks surface)

   <<< Please click translate corner on side bar if you want to change the language, then click heading post to change a post language. Pengenalan surface     Solid bodies dan surface bodies adalah dua hal yang berbeda namun untuk seseorang pemula akan nampak hampir sama antar keduanya. Drafter dituntut mengerti apakah yang dia gambar itu termasuk dalam surface atau solid bodies. Formasi solid bodies dan surface bodies:   1. Geometry       Geometri menggambarkan bentuk, sesuatu yang menentukan apakah benda nantiya datar atau melengkung   2. Topology       Topology menjelaskan tentang relation model yang dibuat (hubungan):       - Sisi dalam vs sisi luar solid.       - Ujung-ujung yang bertemu        - Ujung-ujung yang membentuk sisi.       - Ujung-ujung yang berada diantara dua surface yang berdekatan. This dibscription below shows the correspondence between the two types of information:     1. Topology         - Face         - Edge
