Industrial Design

3D Direct Modeling with solids enables breakthrough productivity in industrial design.

When industrial designers conceive new ideas, new forms, and new innovation, they contextualize them in the physical world. They need to make their designs tangible, understanding their weight, heft, and substance. They must communicate the intent of their use before the designs will ever be touched or used. Product designs create an indelible connection between the designers and the customers they serve.

For every shape drawn and every form realized, the designer is making a statement and the supporting graphics must remain true to that statement. Designers cannot allow their ambition to be limited by tools. 3D Direct Modeling from SpaceClaim lets designers create and communicate without compromise.

Direct Modeling fuses the free-form creative environment of surface modeling with the power of solid modeling, and lets you merge abstract aesthetic and cold hard function. Finally, you can edit what you’ve created, refining the multiple factors that possess designers.

Create prototype-worthy solid models without worrying about your modeling practice, incorporate data from anywhere, and use it to drive your design. Deliver beautiful documents that express exactly what you want to say, without compromising your design intent.

SpaceClaim offers the right tools for industrial designers to design the way they think.

SpaceClaim Style is an industrial design tool that brings 3D Direct Modeling with solids to the desktop of every industrial designer and product stylist.

Draw in 3D

Napkin, sketch-oriented, drawing tools let you create 3D shapes without having to issue separate Extrude, Rotate, and Sweep commands. Get your idea down in cross sections and merge 3D concepts later. Directly draw 3D on top of scanned hand drawings, capturing ideas faster than you can imagine.

Work with What You Have

Read 2D drawings and images, 3D meshes, surfaces from ID tools, and solids from any CAD system. Merge it all, bind it together, and remix it into something new. Make it right!

Edit Instead of Redo

Direct modeling lets you edit your designs as you see fit. Move a feature without being forced to delete and recreate it. No more fussy exploding and re-trimming just to make a simple change.

Own Your Edge Treatments

Create rounds and chamfers by simply pulling on an edge. Watch them re-blend as you tweak and modify your design. Change the chamfer size at any time.

Make it Beautiful

Lay out your design in formats that can be shared and are in gorgeous, anti-aliased, shaded, and hidden line views. With SpaceClaim, you can explode the assembly and add a bill of materials to embellish its tangible realism. Finally, render your design with different colors and materials in record time.

SpaceClaim lets you work with a solid in ways only dreamed of before.
