Main features:
Parametric construction tree
|
3DESIGN CAD is truly an adjustable 2D and full 3D solution. With its Parametric Construction Tree, it updates your creation every time you change a detail. At any stage of design, you can modify, alter, and view the changes, validate them or not; you don't have to re-design from scratch. The element you are editing will not reposition your tree view, so you can focus on the main container of your object. The focus on viewing option will also give you direct and immediate access to your component. |
Draft Kit
|
If you prefer starting your creation from a drawing, you can use the Draft Kit Wizard. It allows you to transform a 2D sketch into a real 3D object in just a few steps. Just draw the different views of your design, scan them and then import the pictures into 3DESIGN CAD. You can then easily build your model in full 3D based on your drawing. |
Jewelling
|
Easily and intuitively position your stones with the Jewelling Pilot! Stones are automatically positioned at the proper locations, duplicated in the right number and at the appropriate size. Jewelling has been improved to perform better and ease modifications of the placed items. You can also measure in carats, work in symmetry, manage distances for prong positioning, etc. |
Catalog
|
To help you build your design easily and quickly, select a shape from the catalog and continue to build your jewel. A wide array of pre-designed components is available, including rings, stones, settings and gems. Plus, you can add and save your own creations and sketch elements such as curves or lines with the integrated creations and 2D sketches databases. 3DESIGN includes the SWAROVSKI Crystal Fashion Components library for colorful and unique jewels. |
Sweeping wizard
|
The capabilities of the Sweep Wizard are astonishing, delivering amazing ease-of-use as well as powerful sweeping. Choose a section to be swept from the catalog or your own sketch; position it anywhere you wish manually or accurately along your rail. Modify its position, size or symmetry through a simple panel, duplicate or add any other section as you wish. This function is so powerful and easy to use that it may be used for most artistic 3D swept applications. |
Rendering
|
3DESIGN CAD offers a very pleasant working environment as you visualize your piece under very realistic aspects. If you wish to save your work as a finished part and show or send it to a contact; you can also get a rendering picture.
