Every manufactured part needs a 2D drawing and mechanical engineers have to spend hours making them. REV1 does it in minutes. Congrats on the launch Alex Rivero & Louis!

That is kind of cool, but considering engineers are notorious for gd&t useless call outs, position tolerance hilarity, and all the other jokes that come with not working on the parts in physical space on real machines I am not optimistic This approach is backwards. Hopefully they work on it from the other side soon

@Alex_Rivero_S I want this. Right now

@Alex_Rivero_S Creating 2D blueprints is easy -- determine TOLERANCES and geometric relationships is where the magic happens. This blueprint of a part for M1 Carbine originally designed in 1934 went through multiple iterations of improvements / changes. And still being used today too!

@Alex_Rivero_S A perfect example of automating the tedious "last mile" of engineering. The goal is to pay engineers to think, not to click buttons in a CAD program to satisfy a supplier's archaic requirements. This is a huge time sink.

@Alex_Rivero_S Much needed. Congrats on the launch!

@Alex_Rivero_S this is exciting. keep going!

@Alex_Rivero_S Good luck guys - lmk if you wanna chat

@Alex_Rivero_S @optomachina

@Alex_Rivero_S Integrate this into CAM and eliminate the drawing almost completely, I’m begging

@Alex_Rivero_S If you get GD&T that’s Voila!

@Alex_Rivero_S REV1 all the way to final REV

@Alex_Rivero_S The more detail and pain you abstract away from a Mech E. The less likely you'll get good solutions. The pain is part of a process of developing efficient laziness. Get so good at it, you become invaluable to a design process at inception. Not everything should be automated.

@Alex_Rivero_S This looks super interesting. Is the 3D model shown a native CAD-linked twin, or geometry recreated inside the app by importing a file? I can imagine a lot of teams are hesitant to move source-of-truth outside their existing CAD/PLM stack.

@Alex_Rivero_S This space is so essential - great to see other companies launching in this space.

@Alex_Rivero_S Can you just settle on ONE fucking font please and if it's the 70s-early 2000's single-page-product-adcore nostalgia serif then fix the kerning omfg

@Alex_Rivero_S This is awesome. Dont forget the AI decoder to help the shop understand the design intent on the other end.

@Alex_Rivero_S Physical engineering is the next frontier for agents. Automating the bridge between raw spec and precise 2D/3D documentation is a massive unlock for manufacturing speed. Hardware is finally getting its software-speed upgrade.

@Alex_Rivero_S Noice!

@Alex_Rivero_S Physical engineering is where agents actually become 'useful' to the real world. Moving from just pixels to automating mechanical specs is a huge unlock. Hardware builders finally getting the leverage that software's had for years.

@Alex_Rivero_S Let's go!

@Alex_Rivero_S automating those drawings frees so much engineer time

@Alex_Rivero_S ok

@Alex_Rivero_S Wild when this is native to things like fusion now. An entire startup around a native feature to cad software. Theres a reason they take hours as well, tolerances are function driven and not just mass apply-able by ai. Cant wait to see the ASME guys get ahold of this

@Alex_Rivero_S "Instead, communicate the intent in CAD": ok so instead of doing the drawing, you do all the work of a drawing anyways

@Alex_Rivero_S This is great! 🙌

@Alex_Rivero_S Really cool. Congrats @Alex_Rivero_S!

@Alex_Rivero_S nice
