VariCAD 2011 v1.10 Incl. Keymaker-CORE | 136.5 MB
VariCAD
is 3D/2D CAD system primarily intended for mechanical engineering
design. In addition to powerful tools for 3D modeling and 2D drafting
and dimensioning, the CAD system provides libraries of standard
mechanical parts (ANSI, DIN), calculations of standard mechanical
components, and tools for working with bills of materials (BOM) and
blocks. The comprehensive CAD software enables designers to quickly
create, evaluate, and modify their models. VariCAD's high performance,
powerful features, and simple and quick user interface make VariCAD the
best value in the CAD market. The software is sold as one "fully loaded"
package, with all features and functions, for one very affordable
price. VariCAD delivers an excellent performance-to-price ratio, making
it one of the smartest choices on the market today.
User Interface and System Environment
VariCAD's
Graphical User Interface (GUI) has been designed to allow quick and
intuitive 3D/2D orientation. We carefully tailored and tuned the GUI to
reflect the thought process of a designer, so that ideas can be captured
and communicated with a minimal number of steps. All commands were
created with a focus on ease of use. An intelligent cursor, numerous
detection and selection modes, 2D construction lines, and the orthogonal
grid are just some of the tools that make working with VariCAD so easy.
You
can start by creating a 3D model and then use it to automatically
create drawings files, or you can draw only in 2D. Designing in 3D is
generally more "natural," in that it closely represents actual parts and
assemblies. The 3D approach is usually more intuitive than 2D drafting.
Models created in 3D are easily converted into conventional 2D
documentation.
3D Modeling
VariCAD provides a library
of basic 3D solids (prism, cylinder, cone, etc.), which are easily
modified by editing the original profile or parameters. Solids can also
easily be created by profile rotation, extrusion, or lofting. More
complex tools include rotation blending between two profiles, lofting
between a circle and rectangle, and creation of helical surfaces.
Solids
can be added or subtracted, thus forming Boolean trees representing
real mechanical parts. Boolean operations have options for automatic
trimming, or automatic removal of subtracted volumes. Predefined
operations like hole drilling, face milling, groove milling and edge
beveling/filleting are also available. Boolean trees are very easy to
edit.
3D Tools - Assemblies, Groups, Parts etc.
VariCAD
also provides tools for assembly support. If the link between a part
and assembly is defined, any changes made to the part file are reflected
in the assembly file and vice-versa. Linked copies can also be defined.
In this case, editing of one object causes all its linked copies to be
updated. Solid groups can be defined as well, making selection and
visibility changes simple for multiple objects.
Crash Tests (Interferences)
One
excellent feature of 3D modeling is component interference checking.
VariCAD can check 3D assemblies for possible collisions (overlapping
volume) between components.
Calculations
VariCAD can calculate
2D section area, surface area, volume, mass, center of gravity, and
moment of gyration. A library of mechanical calculations is also
included, for standard parts used every day by mechanical designers.
These mechanical parts include tension and compression springs,
pre-stressed bolted connections, pins and parallel keys, grooved shafts,
bearings, beams under combined stress (bending and torsion), spur and
bevel gearing geometry, and belt drives.
Surface Development (Sheet Metal Unbending)
VariCAD
can also create developed (flattened) surfaces of 3D solids. The XY
coordinates of the developed surfaces can be saved to a text file for
further processing. You can input bending coefficients in order to
customize your calculations.
Mechanical Part and Symbol Libraries
VariCAD
contains libraries of standard mechanical parts (ANSI, DIN), such as
bolts, nuts, pins, plugs, cotters, gaskets, bearings, rolled and drawn
shapes, and hydraulic, pneumatic, and electronic symbols. You can add
items to these libraries or modify existing parts - all 2D and most 3D
dimensions can be edited.
Non-graphical information can also be
assigned to parts, such as type of material or supplier. This
information is incorporated into an assembly and can be used for
material requisitions, bills of materials (BOM), title blocks, or other
purposes.
3D - 2D Export
3D models are easily converted
into 2D drawings to produce conventional drafting documentation. You
can create 2D views of one or more selected solids by defining the views
in 3D. In addition, you can also export specified sections. VariCAD
supports updates of a 2D drawing after changes in 3D.
2D Drawing and Editing
Drawing
functions are geared toward easy use in engineering. Some handy
features of 2D drawing include: an intelligent cursor that automatically
detects objects and snap points, numerous snap modes, flexible item
selectability, auxiliary construction lines, ortho mode, rectangular
grid, drawing layers (up to 250), block creation, hatching with
automatic border detection, advanced dimensioning, surface texture
symbols, welding symbols, tolerance symbols, and more. Dimensions can be
in millimeters or inches.
BOM and Title Blocks
VariCAD
provides tools for maintaining drawing databases, which represent the
data structure of the product. Databases can be created manually (using
data extraction from the assembly), or by loading a file. There are
constraints between data in part and assembly drawing title blocks and
the assembly database. You can build a bill of material (BOM) from the
database, then easily modify the database using commands like mass
attribute changes, sorting of information, etc.
The data
structure of the product (BOM) can be exported into other systems or
into a spreadsheet. Automatic BOM and title block creation is another
one of VariCAD's useful tools. A mask is used for customization; if you
create masks for BOM and title blocks, you can use them until a change
is necessary. The CAD system provides default masks which can be
adjusted to suit your needs.
Compatibility
VariCAD can
interchange files with other CAD systems. You can export STEP (3D), STL
(3D), IGES (3D and 2D), DWG (2D), DXF (2D) files, and import STEP (3D),
DWG (2D), DXF (2D) and IGES (2D). The files can be converted
individually or in batch routines, thereby converting multiple files in
one step.
Printing and Plotting
Printing within VariCAD
is highly customizable. You can use Windows or KDE Linux printer
drivers, or VariCAD built-in drivers. Postscript printing is also
available.
Summary
VariCAD is a total CAD solution for
mechanical engineering. It is compact, fast, easy to use, and contains
everything you need for mechanical engineering design. The high
performance and powerful tools of our fully loaded package make VariCAD a
superb investment. And at our price, no other product is a better
value.
VariCAD 2011 Released- Apr 18, 2011
The DWG/DXF interface contains:
* Full support of DWG formats from AutoCAD 2011 down to AutoCAD R12
* Significantly wider range of supported types of objects
* Optional methods of opening model spaces together with various paper spaces
* Clear and simple detection of possible erroneous files or problems
Among improved or rebuilt features are:
* 2D hatching, including selection or automatic detection of boundaries of hatched area and editing of existing hatches.
* Creation of contours, for instance preparation of profiles for 3D extrusion, rotation etc.
* 2D area calculations, used for obtaining the section area, outline length, moment of inertia or bending section modulus.
* Working with predefined 2D blocks.
* Working with predefined libraries of 2D symbols.
* Full support of 2D NURBS (splines, used as interpolation curves), including trimming, dividing, segment removals etc...
* 2D offsets, including support of poly-lines containing linear, circular or/and NURBS segments.
* New editing possibilities, including change of line lengths, stretching, change of circle diameters, change of fillet radii.
User interface improvements:
*
Cursor coordinates optionally (by default) displayed nearby the cursor.
In 2D drawing, displayed values are x y, or dx dy, together with angle
and distance from previous location. In 3D module, the displayed value
contains the distance if a solid is dynamically moved along its axis, or
angle, if a solid is dynamically rotated around its selected axis.
* More options for 2D location inputs, especially entering values from keyboard
*
During the input of 2D location, is a possibility to press TAB and very
conveniently enter the fixed length, radius, angle or coordinate.
*
During any input of 2D or 3D location, 2D or 3D object selection etc..,
there is a possibility to use toolbars and/or right-click to invoke
pop-up menus.
* Greater number of editing features is available via right-click objects.
*
A lot of available features (according to a given situation) from
right-click an empty location in 2D area or 3D space, especially copy
& paste, undo of editing, switch of new/old views exported from 3D,
editing of 2D blocks...
STEP interface:
* New options for file loading.
* Better problem analysis.
We
recommend to consider the user settings - run command 'cfg', decide
whether to change right-click behavior and check the behavior of cursor
coordinates. The right-click behavior inside various inputs can be set
to standard, to original VariCAD behavior or it can be combined. This is
perhaps the most remarkable change for VariCAD users.
Recommended minimum configuration (windows):
* at least 2GHz processor
* 1GB RAM
* HDD 250MB
* graphic card with hardware support of OpenGL graphics
* three-buttoned mouse
For VariCAD 64-bit, we recommend more memory than for a 32-bit version.
