Technical Illustration Services
Technical illustration services by illustrators create technical illustrations to visually communicate information of a technical nature. For example, technical illustrations can be components of technical drawings or diagrams.
Illustrations generally must describe and explain the subjects to a nontechnical audience.
Therefore, the visual image should be accurate in terms of dimensions and proportions and provide an overall impression of what an object is or does to enhance the viewer’s interest and understanding.
Types of Technical Illustrations
The types of drawings in technical communication are Smart graphics, line drawings, cutaway drawings, and clip art images. Technical illustration and computer design can also use 3D and solid-body projections, such as rapid prototyping.
In the natural sciences, scientific illustration refers to a style of drawing using stippling and simple line techniques to convey information with minimal artistic interpretation.
Technical Illustration Categories
Illustration has these categories; Communication with the general public informs the general public, for example, illustration of instructions found in the manuals for automobiles and consumer electronics.
Creative Technical Illustration/Graphics
This type of technical illustration contains simple terminology and symbols that can be understood by the layperson or creative technical illustration/graphics.
Specialize in engineering or scientific communication: for engineers/scientists to communicate with their peers and in specifications.
Illustrating Complex Terminology and Special Symbols
This use of technical illustration has its own complex terminology and special symbols; examples are the fields of atomic energy, aerospace, and military/defense.
These areas can be further broken down into disciplines of mechanical, electrical, architectural engineering, and many more.
Communication Between Experts
Communication between experts is for engineers to communicate with people who are experts in a field but not engineers. Examples of this type of technical illustration are illustrations found in user/operator documentation. These illustrations can be very complex and have jargon and symbols not understood by the general public, such as illustrations that are part of instructional materials for operating CNC machinery.
