EFD.Lab - Specification List
Solid Modeling Capabilities
CAD Interoperability
- Native file translators to and from nearly all mechanical CAD products on the market today: Pro/ENGINEER®, IPT (Autodesk Inventor®), Mechanical Desktop®, Unigraphics®, PAR (Solid Edge®), CADKEY®, IGES, STEP, Parasolid®, SAT (ACIS®), VDA-FS, VRML, STL, DWG, DXF™, TIFF, JPG, Viewpoint, RealityWave, HSF (Hoops)
- Support of seamless integrated third-party bi-directional file translators, e. g. for CATIA®, Pro/ENGINEER®, etc.
- Supported standards: ANSI, DIN, ISO, GOST, JIS, GB and BSI
Part Modeling
- Feature based, fully associative, parameterized solid modeling
- FeatureManager™ dynamic design tree (e.g. re-order, drag & drop, etc.)
- In-place editing
- Integrated sketching (dynamic referencing)
- Extrudes, revolves, feature patterns, holes, etc.
- Advanced 3D operations, e.g. lofting, sweeping, complex blending, filleting, etc.
- Advanced shelling
- Multi-body support
- Advanced surface modeling: lofts and sweeps with guide curves, fill-in holes, drag-handles for tangency control, etc.
- Trimming, extending, filleting, and knitting surfaces
- Translating, rotating, copying, and mirroring surfaces
- Support for creating 3D models from existing 2D data, e.g. 2D-to-3D extrusion, etc.
- Multiple Design Variations with Configuration Management, DesignTables
Assembly Modeling
- Fully associative: referencing of other parts and maintaining relationships when creating new parts
- Complete range of mating conditions, snap-to-fit SmartMates™
- Locating conflicting mate relationships with Mate Diagnostics
- Dynamic Assembly Visualization
- Real-time previewing of components, parts
- Multiple sub-assembly support
- Easy designing and changing of parts and subassemblies from within an assembly
- Design-in-the-context of an assembly (references to other geometry, associative relationships, direct/indirect constraints)
- Mirrored components to create new parts and assemblies based on existing designs
- Multiple Assembly Design Variations with Configuration Management for easy “what if” design scenarios
