===Design in context=== Individual components cannot be constructed in isolation. [[computer aided design|CAD]] and [[computer-aided industrial design|CAID]] models of components are created within the context of some or all of the other components within the product being developed. This is achieved using [[assembly modelling]] techniques. The geometry of other components can be seen and referenced within the CAD tool being used. The other referenced components may or may not have been created using the same CAD tool, with their geometry being translated from other collaborative product development (CPD) formats. Some assembly checking such as [[digital mockup|DMU]] is also carried out using [[product visualization]] software.
