Understanding the ShipConstructor Approach
These tutorial videos provide an overview of ShipConstructor, its uses and user communities. The tutorials also explain some key concepts that will help you be more effective in your work with ShipConstructor. The build strategy is an example. If, as parts are created within the 3D model, they are assigned a logical place in the build strategy, they are then automatically assigned a logical name. In addition, production outputs such as nesting code and assembly drawings will automatically reflect the crane lifting and work area constraints of your specific shipyard.
Likewise, it is important for modelers to understand how DDROM streamlines the modification process. Parametric part storage within a relational database makes it possible for ShipConstructor to replicate complex frame parts from one frame to another. It also facilitates "one-click adjustment" of new parts to different hull traces.
