Model-based definition (MBD) makes 3D models your central source for all product manufacturing information (PMI) throughout the lifecycle. Instead of using 2D engineering drawings, MBD …

Model-based definition is an approach to creating 3D models so that they effectively contain all the data needed to define a product. With MBD, the model becomes the source of all product …

Model-based definition (MBD), sometimes called digital product definition (DPD), is the practice of using 3D models (such as solid models, 3D PMI and associated metadata) within 3D CAD …

May 8, 2025 · Model-Based Definition (MBD) replaces traditional 2D engineering drawings with a fully annotated 3D digital model. MBD enhances communication between design, …

Mar 9, 2023 · Model-Based Definition (MBD) is the process of defining product & engineering data within a 3D CAD model. An MBD approach creates a single source of truth that is used in …

Nov 29, 2022 · For the uninitiated, MBD tools (generally speaking) allow designers to annotate 3D CAD models with manufacturing information directly, as opposed to using a traditional 2D …

Aug 2, 2023 · Model-Based Definition (MBD) is revolutionizing design and manufacturing by reshaping the industry with its transformative capabilities.

Model-Based Definition (MBD) is a methodology in engineering design that uses 3D digital models as the authoritative source of product definition data, integrating all the information necessary …

Jun 18, 2025 · This approach, known as Model-Based Definition (MBD), embeds manufacturing intent directly into the model earlier in the design process — enabling better communication …

Model-based design (MBD) is the practice of leveraging simulation to understand the behavior of a to-be-constructed or existing physical system.
