How to Create a Simple 3D Part Using HVH Designer

HVH Designer is an emerging 3D CAD platform currently in its early development stage, built to introduce engineers and designers to the core principles of part modeling in a clean and accessible environment. This introductory tutorial walks users through the essential first steps of working within the software, beginning with part file initialization, where users can assign part numbers and revision identifiers to keep design files organized and easy to reference throughout the development process.
From there, the session moves into basic geometry creation, demonstrating how to define wall thickness as a parametric input and apply the revolve feature to generate axisymmetric solids from a 2D profile, a fundamental operation for components such as shafts, flanges, and cylindrical housings. While the platform is still in its pre-beta stage and does not yet offer more advanced modeling tools such as chamfer operations, fillet blending, or downstream analysis integrations, the tutorial places a strong emphasis on establishing disciplined CAD workflow habits from the outset, including structured file management and precise parametric inputs.
HVH Designer is still in its early development stage, and future updates are expected to expand its modeling capabilities beyond the basics. For now, this tutorial provides a straightforward introduction, helping new users get familiar with the platform’s core workflow before more advanced features are added.
