Using an AI Parametric Part Generator

A parametric part is one defined by dimensions you can change — make a hole 6 mm instead of 5 mm and everything updates. An AI parametric part generator lets you create and adjust that geometry with plain English instead of a constraint solver. Here is how to use one well.

How it works

With PartWork.ai, you describe a part and the AI generates real 3D geometry — not a picture, actual solid geometry you can measure, edit, and export. Because it is parametric, you keep steering it:

Create a gear housing 80 mm wide with a 30 mm bore
Make the wall 5 mm thick
Add four M4 mounting holes on the front face

Each instruction modifies the same part. Your full history is saved, so you can step back to any version. See Modifying Parts for the editing workflow.

Where it shines

Custom one-offs

Brackets, enclosures, adapters, jigs — parts too specific to find off the shelf.

Fast iteration

Change a dimension by describing it. No re-drafting, no broken constraints.

No CAD background

You describe intent; the AI handles sketches, extrudes, and fillets.

Straight to manufacturing

Export STEP for CNC or STL for 3D printing when the part is right.

How to get accurate results

Always give units

"30 mm" or "1.5 inches" — never leave dimensions ambiguous.

Build incrementally

Add one feature, check it, then add the next. Easier to catch mistakes.

Select, then describe

Click a face and say "add a hole here" for precise placement.

Mix tools and language

Use tools for exact placement, language for complex changes.
