Description

Ansys SpaceClaim offers a distinctive user interface, innovative modeling technology, and a versatile set of tools that facilitate the creation and modification of imported geometries without the intricacies often found in conventional CAD systems. While managing existing CAD models, users can effortlessly de-feature and streamline geometry using automated tools that are straightforward to master. This software is particularly suited for engineers who require rapid 3D solutions but lack the time to navigate elaborate CAD tools. SpaceClaim equips analysts with capabilities that expedite geometry preparation for simulations, whether that involves de-featuring CAD models, isolating fluid domains, or converting a model to beam and shell elements. By alleviating geometry-related obstacles, SpaceClaim allows analysts to concentrate on their simulations without interruption. With enhanced control over geometry, analysts can foster simulation-driven design, reduce delays between design and analysis teams, and quickly assess how modifications to designs affect outcomes, ultimately leading to more efficient workflows and better project results. Consequently, the integration of SpaceClaim into engineering practices significantly enhances productivity and collaboration.

Description

SOLVESPACE is an open-source parametric 3D CAD software released under the GPLv3 license, allowing users to design 3D components and create drawings through various operations such as extruding, revolving, or using Boolean methods like union, difference, and intersection. It also enables the modeling of 2D parts by allowing users to draw a single section and export it in formats like DXF, PDF, and SVG, while the 3D assembly feature aids in checking component fit. For those interested in 3D printing, parts can be exported in STL or other mesh formats compatible with the majority of 3D printers. Additionally, it supports the preparation of CAM data, enabling the export of 2D vector art tailored for waterjet machines or laser cutters, or generating STEP and STL files for integration with third-party CAM software for machining processes. The tool is particularly useful for mechanism design, utilizing a constraint solver to simulate both planar and spatial linkages, accommodating various joint types such as pin, ball, or slide joints. Instead of relying on traditional trigonometry and spreadsheets, users can work with live-dimensioned drawings to handle plane and solid geometry, and they can sketch sections utilizing a variety of shapes including lines, rectangles, datum lines, points, circles, arcs, and cubic Bezier segments, along with C2 interpolating splines and more intricate designs. This comprehensive approach encourages creativity and efficiency in the design process, making SOLVESPACE a valuable asset for engineers and designers alike.
