Developer of integrated CAD/CAM solutions for engineers has announced a powerful function that lets product designers import and use digital images for defining 3D models.
3D modeling made with true type fonts
Any True Type Font found on a PC is transparently converted by into a vector format for 3D modeling - users simply select the font desired and then type text straight into the VX Sketcher.
All aspects of VX have been refined and improved.
VX Version 10 has made further break-through advances in speed, achieved with its own high performance kernel, faster assembly model display, and faster 2D layout.
VX ScanShape makes VX the only MCAD CAD/CAM program on the market with advanced, integrated point cloud (millions of points from laser scans) tools.
VX also supports input using a number of digitizing arms thus offering a very serious solution to reverse engineering problems.
VX global shape morphing can be applied equally well on solid models, surface models and imported geometry.
It has an easy to use interface that is functionally rich for professional use offering dimensional accuracy and symmetry.
The new VX Post program comes complete with posts already defined for many popular CNC controllers.
It has a user friendly interface and rapidly produces output files.
New CAM features range from easy to use engage/retract options in 2.5D milling, to advanced object management tools delivering the ability to import/export CAM operations (i.e, build a library of oft used toolpath solutions).
The VX Solid Verification module, already boasting good speed in version 9, has been dramatically improved ? for example, a benchmark test case that took a respectable 50 minutes to complete in v9, now takes only 12 minutes in v10! The VX Quick Milling module has many enhancements too, including lead-in along toolpath and spline elasticity for smooth links.
