Distributed systems are required in industrial environments for collecting distributed information. The developed distributed CAD system has sharing of functions, which consist of a client and server as a Peer to Peer (P2P) system. It is constructed using CAD kernel and COM/DCOM technology to share functions on a network. In recent years, the distributed system has been applied to industries for combining work functions. Here, the requester is the client, and the provider is the server. The developed system in this study shares the functions among the systems through a P2P structure. All systems linked to a local network can use the functions of the other systems. The importance of constructing this kind of distributed CAD system is for transferring 3D model data for gaining access to the location of the providers. This system can perform many operations concurrently using other systems and can save time on work. Some of the operations performed and tested by the developed distributed CAD system are Boolean operation, obtaining properties, triangulation, and tessellation.
