The computer-aided design (CAD) system used at an enterprise to create a digital model of structures or products is a set of several software products, each of which defines strictly defined functions as part of the enterprise's production system.
A rational choice of CAD begins at the stage of preparation for creating a digital model. The choice should take into account: the software (SW) required for 3D modeling of the finished object, as well as the final software intended for printing the entire set of design documentation, or for generating an electronic set of documentation for sending to the customer.
In the context of sanctions from foreign countries, it is necessary to approach the selection of software products, taking into account all their features, advantages and functionality. In addition, it is necessary to consider the possibility of organizing technical support for these software products, as well as their adaptation to the domestic software that is used to compile auxiliary documents included in the design documentation set.
For the effective organization of work between individual software in order to enable their interaction with each other, it is necessary to develop a methodology that would reduce the interaction time and implement interaction mechanisms. These mechanisms provide for the transfer of information from one software package to another for the purpose of processing information and automatic generation of additional documents (estimates, statements of work volumes, specifications, etc.).
In this regard, the development of a new method for selecting CAD and the formation of basic principles for information transfer is very relevant.
