AI时代的制造业破局之道：奈扬创意的参数化3D设计体系

以MidJourney、DALL-E 或 Krea.ai，甚至是最近的DeepSeek等AI工具为代表，创造时尚感设计只是冰山一角。 产品研发中，工业设计难点在哪里？那就是复杂曲线的建模、工程可行性，以及缩小创意与可制造性之间的差距。这正是奈扬创意设计在参数化建模软件（如 PTC Creo）方面的专业技术所赋予我们的无可争议的优势所在。.

Real Challenge: Turning Ideas into Manufacturable Designs

Anyone can come up with a cool concept. But the tough part is nitty-gritty of building precise 3D models, tweaking endless 3D points, curves, and ensuring the final design works seamlessly in production. At NYCD, we know that our industrial designer guys don't just "play" with shapes; they architect solutions. Every product involves a million small, precise decisions.

Here's a snapshot of what this looks like:

1. Selecting 57 different edges across your 3D model to apply 2mm radius fillet.

2. Identifying + isolating complex surfaces, hiding and freezing components, or slicing through multiple cross-sections to access specific geometry.

3. Manually defining relationships between 6 faces, 7 holes, and 8 edges to ensure they work together perfectly.

Sound tedious? It is! But it’s these micro-level adjustments that transform a design from “conceptual” to “production-ready.”

Why AI Falls Short in Modeling Complexity

AI like Midjourney is indeed brilliant at generating ideas, but it hits a wall in engineering and struggles with the basic operations that define the modeling process, like assigning identity to nameless edges or interpreting the relationships between surfaces, vertices, and curves. 

Sure, you can try describing an 3D operation to AI CAID — "extrude edges 26 through line 137, until they align with surfaces 6, 8, and 13”— but speaking that out takes longer than grabbing your mouse and just doing it.

Let's face it, AI's natural language processing might seem magical in other fields, but in CAD? It's nowhere near replacing parametric modeling software or seasoned designers who know how to wield it effectively.

NYCD's  Designers Who Master the Tools

At NYCD, we don't see parametric modeling software as just a tool—it's our lifeline. Our industrial designers are PTC Creo pros, meaning they can execute complex ideas during the design stage itself. This minimizes back-and-forth during structural design reviews and saves critical time in product development. Think of it as a smooth handoff from creativity to manufacturability without the messy guesswork.

Final Thoughts

So, is AI ready to take over industrial design? Not yet. 

AI might be reshaping industries, but with NYCD's team of experts and our mastery of modeling tools, we're ready to tackle whatever the future throws at us.
