Rhino 3D CAD Service
Design of CAD-Models using Rhinoceros 3D
Rhino3D provides a rich toolkit for the design of CAD-Models. After a relatively short learning period, even beginners are able to produce usable 3D-Models given they are not overly complex or require perfect surface quality.
On the other hand, for the creation of production-ready 3D-models, more profound knowledge about geometrical and technical basics of surface generation is necessary. These are for instance surface degrees, span count, continuities and tolerances. Jaeger.ID is using Rhino 3D for more than 10 years as the main CAD software and knows how to do things properly and the tricks of the trade in generating perfect 3D models. Mainly, Rhino is used for the realization of own designs, but Jaeger.ID is offering the this service to clients that want to benefit from our experience and proficiency.
Modeling of free-form surfaces
When it comes to models that have to meet the requirements of production-ready data sets, in-depth knowledge of the geometric conditions is required – such as the number of nodes and support curves, curvature continuities and tolerances. In contrast to parametric CAD tools, which are primarily suitable for mechanical functional parts, Rhinoceros is suitable for the creation of free-form surfaces, which are particularly relevant for visible surfaces of design-relevant parts such as housing and bodywork surfaces.
Organic design with subdivision surfaces
I use subdivision surfaces for the implementation of very organic surface structures, which enable shapes that can otherwise only be achieved with great effort using the classic method of generation via a spline and Nurbs grid. SDS modeling enables very fast and intuitive work with comparatively few commands. This screenshot clearly shows the completely different structure of a surface model generated with SDS as opposed to a NURBS structure.
Generative design through parametric Grasshopper definitions
The Grasshopper component in Rhino enables infinite possibilities for generating 3D models with (among other things) complex structures and changing patterns – results that are extremely difficult to achieve using conventional design methods. In Grasshopper 3D, geometry is created using graphical links that represent mathematical functions and parameters as well as 3D geometry. All dependencies can be freely defined.
I offer individual solutions and support in the development of parameterized models – whether for architectural drafts, design objects or functional components. From conception to implementation and optimization, I support you with my in-depth expertise in the field of algorithmic design.
