Technical Illustration Definition
Technical illustrations are product graphics used in a variety of documents throughout the enterprise
Quickly, clearly convey a variety of information about a manufactured product typically shown in the situation the product is used, assembled, or serviced
Only meaningful details are shown; Insignificant details are omitted
The use of perspective or isometric views and graphic devices (i.e. line weight, hidden lines removal, cutaways) emphasizes the key details of the illustration

How to Create Illustrations
Photos
“Do it yourself”
By hand…
Illustration software
Trace photos
Reuse CAD data
From CAD systems

Use of photos
Part needs to be manufactured first!
Situation often unclear
Difficult to change
Callouts hard to apply
Not easy to combine with text
Bad quality after fax / photocopy
Lots of changes with products like Adobe Photoshop

There is a secret recipe!
“Understand” the components to illustrate
Make a photo or put it in front of you
Explain to yourself what you see
What do I see?What do I see?

Typical Graphical Attributes & Styles – Thick & Thin
Simple to apply
Gives the illustration the “3D” look
Thick where you can put your hand behind
All other lines should be thin
Line weights
Thick = 0.30 mm
Thin = 0.15 mm

Typical Graphical Attributes & Styles – Without Thick & Thin?
Less graphic quality
Less effort
No differentiation, in general
Individual parts not clear
Looks flatLooks flat
