Application of AutoCAD and KOMPAS graphic editors

Abstract

In this article, on the example of two graphics programs AutoCAD and KOMPAS, we tried to identify the most convenient computer graphics program for work. Most teachers prefer the interactive (computer) type of teaching. Interactive learning is much more effective than traditional learning. The success of interactive learning can mainly depend on the teacher and the level of interest of the students themselves. The article provides a comparative analysis of these programs and shows that these programs are indispensable when performing 3D modeling tasks. When the scale is reduced, changes occur in the Compass 3D program: for example, when creating a basic shape on a plane, the sketch parameters change. And when changing the coordinate axes in AutoCAD, it becomes difficult to draw figures such as parallelepipeds, cylinders, cones, etc. In AutoCAD, once you are familiar with the panel tools and have knowledge of descriptive geometry, you can easily begin drawing an axonometric image. The operation is also considered in the Compass program, since in this program there are no repetitions of the contour boundaries.The results showed that KOMPAS-3D is a fast and convenient tool for creating simple models, which makes it suitable for training and working with novice users. The article also shows the importance of choosing the right program depending on the user level and specifics of the work, which is an important aspect in the field of computer-aided design and engineering graphics.
