Alibre Design PE - Tormach Special Edition (30491)

Tormach Special Edition* - The most affordable 3D modeling software on the market at a special price for our customers.

• 3D Model Creation: Alibre Design contains a full suite of mechanical design tools aimed at precise, fast model creation.
• Fully Parametric Design: Parametric design is the de facto standard for 3D mechanical design and manufacturing. If you are not using a true parametric modeler, you are wasting time. Parametric basically means that you create intelligent parts, assemblies, and drawings that can be updated later easily and with a minimum of rework. Wherever a part is used, for example in an assembly, BOM, or 2D drawing, changes will be reflected automatically. Alibre Design is built from the ground up to be fully parametric. All modules are completely interconnected and design changes are a matter of double clicking dimensions you used to create your part originally and typing in new numbers. When you open your assembly, you will see the part has been updated for you. When you open your drawings, you will see all the views, including partial views, section views, and anything else will also be updated. The dimensions will have changed for you, and you will not waste any time needlessly redoing 2D drawings.
• Assembly Design: Combine parts into a mechanical assembly. Create exploded views you can reuse in 2D drawings, query the assembly's physical properties such as mass, detect collisions, and easily change or update parts directly from within the assembly workspace. Simulate assembly motion by clicking and dragging parts to see the real-world motion in action, before creating physical prototypes.
• Single Workstation Install: Each license of Alibre Design Personal comes with allowance for a single install.

Alibre Design PE Tormach Special Edition is available exclusively to Tormach Customers and also includes:

• Import/Export of CAD Neutral Formats: Support for STP, STL,, IGES, DXF, DWG, 3DM, SAT makes it easy to interface with nearly any CAM software.

Normally only available with Alibre Design Expert, this feature is exclusive to Alibre Design Personal - Tormach Special Edition.
