![]() ![]() ![]() You select the visible openings, adjust the volume extraction slider and SpaceClaim shows you where other openings are located. They’ve handled the challenge of isolating internal volumes quite elegantly. My favorite, shown with flawless execution in the demo, was updates to the volume extraction tool. Out of all of these, the new features that stand out are sheetmetal and updates to volume extraction. Here’s the bulk of them… The new features in SpaceClaim 2011+ Like the updates for many other 3D Software makers, this release is focused on customer requests. Concept modeling reigns supreme, but prep for simulation, data translation and manufacturing prep are just behind. The other interesting slide Blake put up was about SpaceClaim usage. All the direct modelers are jumpin’ in the cage match too, drawing a lot of attention to ‘better’ ways of modeling and forcing the chubbier CAD companies to slip into some uncomfortable lycra costumes to join along. The Tyco deal was big news and they’re getting other big wins. Instead they’ve placed themselves firmly in the arena of DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGY. What am I getting at? SpaceClaim has become a valuable modeling tool that stands on it’s own. In turn however, SpaceClaim has the advantage of bringing a mindset of lean development to the design process. Many times these all fall outside the control of the other and a inefficient system of product development follows. ![]() Where SpaceClaim is going to standout though, is in a company where the conceptual requirement planning and the initial stages of engineering can be controlled against the detailed design phase and production. ![]()
