Built-in functionality enables access to 100M+ 3D models and also allows the import of PCB layout files in IDF format from any PCB design tool including DesignSpark PCB among others, enabling an even faster design cycle. The tool’s simplicity of use means that engineers and others involved in product development can become fully conversant with the software within minutes, rather than the weeks or months required to become skilled with traditional 3D CAD tools. Developed in conjunction with SpaceClaim, the leading provider of flexible and powerful 3D modelling software for engineers, DesignSpark Mechanical overcomes two major barriers to entry faced by new potential users to 3D design: prohibitive cost and the considerable investment in learning time associated with traditional 3D CAD tools.īased on ‘direct modelling’ technology, users can create geometry easily with powerful and intuitive gesture-based modelling techniques. This bundle features both the DS Mechanical Exchange and DS Mechanical Drawing modules.Available at no Cost, DesignSpark Mechanical is a new and powerful 3D modelling software tool that is easy to learn and provides a highly intuitive user experience to help engineers create design concepts in 3D faster than ever before. Need both? Get the fully extended functionality all in one package with our bundle offer, and turn DesignSpark Mechanical into a low-cost yet high performance 3D design solution for all your prototyping and production needs. Drawings support annotations, including geometric dimensioning and tolerances, notes and leaders, to JIS, ISO, and ANSI® standards. The drawing environment provides a familiar work space for those accustomed to working in 2D.

This great module lets you change designs as well as create and modify geometry from within drawing views. This module turns DesignSpark Mechanical into a low-cost 3D design solution, ideal for companies wanting to create fabulous product concepts without having to invest in 3D CAD licenses and training, or for businesses wanting to reduce reliance on contractors for final design creation and manufacturing. With this module you can freely import, modify, and export the industry standard STEP and IGES file formats, allowing you to fully exchange design data with CAD tools such as SolidWorks, Catia, ProEngineer, and AutoCAD. With this in mind, we are introducing optional premium modules that will give those users the advanced capability they require. As it’s popularity continues to grow, we’ve worked with our users to understand what they want in addition to the standard free functionality that would help them take their designs from concept to production-ready. Introducing the NEW DesignSpark Mechanical Add-On ModulesĭesignSpark Mechanical is and always will be free software with continued support and new versions introduced periodically.
