What is manual redraw?
Manual redraw uses the cognitive skills of a human operator to recognize and control the construction of each object within a drawing. The simplest (and most common) way to perform manual redraw on a paper drawing is by visual take-off from the paper drawing into the computer using CAD software and operator initiated commands and placement. All manual redraw techniques rely heavily on the human operator to control the redrawing process and this results in highly accurate drawings which are required for further processing like transferring of data to CNC for machining.
