For industrial designers, the use of CAD systems is the basis of computer-aided design. Using NURBS models, the formal accuracy of a design can be checked and an initial analysis can be carried out with regard to the manufacture and the physical properties of an object. For industrial designers, the handling of free-form surfaces is particularly essential. Using selected objects, modeling is trained with complex surfaces in NURBS surface models. Polygon models created by 3D scans are also used as the basis for a NURBS surface return.
