One of the most common and essential services within CAD conversion is paper-to-CAD conversion. This process involves the conversion of hand-drawn or printed paper designs into digital CAD files. It can be tedious and time consuming to carry out this task, but at Cad2d Outsourcing, We make this easy for you.
Our paper-to-CAD conversions include:
Scanning and Digitization: The initial step of paper-to-CAD conversion is the scanning of paper-based drawings. High-quality scanners capture the designs with precision, ensuring that no detail is missed. Once digitised, the files are saved in a format compatible with CAD software.
Manual Drafting Expertise: Our experienced CAD drafters recreate the design in a CAD software environment, ensuring accuracy and consistency with the original drawing.
Scaling and Accuracy: Scaling is a critical aspect of our paper-to-CAD conversion, as we ensure that the digital design matches the dimensions of the original drawing with precision to ensure that the converted CAD file is an accurate representation of the paper-based design.
Quality Control: Our designers quality checks and revisions are conducted to ensure that the converted CAD design meets industry standards and the client's requirements.
The advantages of paper-to-CAD conversion extend beyond mere digitisation.
Here are some of the key benefits:
Easy Editing and Modification: Once a design is in digital format, it can be easily edited, modified, or revised as needed. This flexibility is invaluable in design projects that undergo frequent changes.
Quick Access and Sharing: Digital CAD files are easy to store, access, and share. This accessibility fosters collaboration and simplifies communication within design teams.
Reduced Storage Costs: With paper drawings converted to CAD, there's no longer a need for physical storage space and associated costs. It is particularly advantageous for organisations with extensive design archives.
Enhanced Sustainability: Embracing CAD and paper-to-CAD conversion is a significant step towards sustainability by reducing paper usage and minimising waste.
Future-Proofing: As technology advances, CAD files remain adaptable. They can be easily migrated to newer software and formats, ensuring that your designs stay relevant and accessible in the future.
