This page explains how the content of MCADauthority.com is planned, written, checked and corrected. Our goal is simple: guides that a working designer can trust.
Purpose and audience
MCADauthority.com publishes educational guides about mechanical computer-aided design (MCAD) and the engineering and manufacturing practices around it. The readers we have in mind are students, designers, engineers, CAD managers and small manufacturers.
How guides are written
- Each guide starts from a practical question a designer actually faces.
- Technical statements are checked against recognized standards (such as the ASME Y14 and ISO families) and against the documentation of the software discussed.
- Examples and figures are illustrative. They are meant to explain a principle, not to replace a drawing, a standard or a calculation for your own project.
- When a topic depends on the software version or on local practice, we say so.
Use of AI tools
Some articles are drafted with the help of artificial intelligence tools. Drafts are then edited and fact-checked before publication, and responsibility for the published text rests with the publisher, MCADauthority.com.
Independence
Software and hardware are reviewed and compared without any vendor controlling our conclusions. Product names are used to identify products and remain the property of their owners.
Updates
CAD software and standards evolve. We review and update guides when something important changes, and we aim to keep guides accurate rather than merely new.
Corrections
If you find a mistake or an outdated statement, please tell us through the contact page, choosing the topic “Correction or error report”, and mention the title of the guide and the passage concerned. We review every report and correct confirmed errors promptly.
