Engineering Drawing Rework
Engineers and drafters spend excessive manual effort creating, checking, and correcting technical drawings, causing errors, rework, and delays.
In their words
will have 10+ items that need to be hand drawn and submitted to engineering, which isn't difficult but is a huge time consuming pain
Im getting tired of scanning pdfs into cad and tracing..... The As-built documentation I get is absolute trash.
Create an AI workflow for composing already made drawings into our company's sheet format.
it eliminated a lot of the manual work of collecting, sorting, and packaging drawings
A lotta repetitive tasks inside cad when we iterate plans can be solved through some software tweaks or add ons
A model can look complete on screen and still miss the design intent.
Every task that looks like a 30-second operation somehow turns into a 45-minute debugging session.
companies take weeks to answer... when they do get back to me, the information is just outright not what I asked for
I just want to avoid things like this is the future because we thought we were dang near done.
the drawing is incorrect, both in where you're meant to measure from and the tolerance of said feature, neither of which was communicated or checked
I've just been burned too many times. Wrong scale listed, drawings resized, something copied over wrong, whatever.
I ask coworkers for a peer review with time to allow it, they disregard my request and the proposal gets sent out as-is.
a project we thought was going to involve thousands of man-hours of very expensive, senior draftsperson labor to backport a feature into decades of CAD files
there must be an ai tool that takes the tedium out of making these drawings

Why those fall short
- Vague errors like 'Profile is invalid' with no location or reason
- vendor contact forms and info@ inboxes go unanswered or misrouted
- drawings lack dimensions and tolerances; model is treated as master data
- scaling prints does not help when dimensions are missing
- no revision control, no formal QC, drawings not updated
