The Capabilities -

• Modeling and designing -

With this 3D design software, the user can easily optimize his product. 3D product design is nothing but the creation of a design in virtual space where the product has three dimensions. The digital prototype of the product created in this process can later be studied in detail. There are two types of 3D design and solid modeling: direct and parametric modeling. Direct modeling allows the user to take control of the change in the desired parts. One can easily push & pull out of the geometry and make quick changes to it. Parametric modeling does the same thing but it maintains consistency. That means, if the user makes changes to a part, other parts associated with it will change accordingly in order to balance the proportionality consistency.
