Latest release of IronCAD Mechanical streamlines mechanical design processes

By Paul Heney | February 1, 2018

Share

IronCAD, LLC has announced the immediate availability of the latest version of its powerful IronCAD Mechanical add-on for the IronCAD Design Collaboration Suite 2018. This new release offers many new customer-driven enhancements that further extend IronCAD’s capabilities, allowing mechanical designers to increase their productivity.

Some of the improvements to IronCAD Mechanical include:

  • Trim Steels Supports Tolerance and Multiple Extend – Extending the usability in steel structures, the Steels tool has been enhanced to support tolerance setback values to account for welding. In addition, users can now extend multiple steel segments at once to streamline the process of trimming steel structures.
  • Gear Alignment – New capabilities for pairing gears to the correct fitting locations have been added. Simply select two gears, right-click and drag the gear command into the scene and the gears will become paired.
  • Sheet Metal Export Entire Scene – New capabilities to export all the unfolded flat patterns for sheet metal to individual drawing files for manufacturing has been added to reduce time creating detailed drawings manually.
  • Tab and Slot Generator for Sheet Metal – Sheet metal design has been further enhanced to support the creation of tabs and slots that are commonly found in fabrication design.

In addition to these productivity improvements, there have been numerous other enhancements and bug fixes.

IronCAD Mechanical 2018 is immediately available for download and is officially supported for the IronCAD Design Collaboration Suite 2018 at http://www.ironcad.com/design-extensions/ironcad-mechanical.
