Associativity of the drawings to the 3D master representation enables users to concurrently work on their designs and drawings. A utility to export data in DXF formatted files is included. Also includes associative feature-based functions and a dynamic sketcher. Allows users to create designs while adding parameters as they work or after the design is done. A tree-based structure graphically presents the organization of the feature hierarchy for a clear understanding of the impact of design changes.
Users can manipulate entire feature groups to accelerate design change.
Its feature-based approach offers a productive and intuitive design environment to capture and reuse design methodologies and specifications. Creates sheetmetal part designs using a highly productive and intuitive feature based approach. It allows concurrent engineering between the folded or unfolded representation of the part. Because sheetmetal design may start from scratch or from an existing solid, communication between suppliers and contractors is enabled. These can then be shared with other Version 5 applications to produce photo-realistic images.
