Assembly / Mechanical integration

[marcos-diaz]

• It is a MUST that the solution are able to display multiple models at once, and it support the concept of parent-child relationships.
• It is DESIRABLE that the parent model is visible while editing the child model, and vice-versa.
• It is DESIRABLE that the solution can encode the mechanical relationship between the parts, as for example a button being pressed, or a stick being rotated.
• It is a MUST that the solution allow to apply boolean modifiers (negative spaces) into the parent model based on the children.
• It is a MUST that the solution have a robust method to apply tolerances to these negative spaces.
• It is a MUST that the solution have either the ability to easily modify complex meshes, or to import them as STL.
• It is a MUST that in the case of imported meshes, these are compatible with the native boolean operations.
