CAD - Computer Aided Design
CAD builds 3-d virtual models of your parts and assembles them with constraints which you set. CAD applies real material desities and allows the straightforward calculation of component and asseblt weights and centers of mass. It also allows stress analysis of parts. This is how engineers design mechanical components today.
Team 1640 uses Autodesk Inventor as its CAD platform. Inventor is a FIRST standard. We receive 10 licenses with registration each year. The program is versitile and very capable. We've also got a large labrary of parts (and many more part easilt available).
