ICAD/SX adopted its own CSG solid technology that is the best for machinery equipment and developed and implemented a super high speed geometric shape processing engine. Slow CAD progression prevents a designer from thinking. ICAD/SX is able to handle the assembly containing one hundred thousand parts with the 32 bit personal computer that supports 2GB of memory. This enables engineers to verify the process of entire production line, optimization of the layout, and design by concurrently retrieving the multiple old equipments, units and product models.
High speed response
Light weighted product data
Cross-section visualization
Restriction-less Editing
Have you heard "The 3D CAD system cannot be applied for conceptual design of mechanical equipment"?
This problem is caused by inconsistency between the conventional design process and operation in 3D CAD system.
ICAD/SX embedded the optimum methodology into the design process and realized the 3D CAD system that can be applied from the conceptual design stage.
Conceptual sketch
Provides the 2D/3D multi-environment in which designer's idea can be embodied quickly.
Reuse parts around
Allows designers to perform modeling by tracing the edges of a part around. The designer does not have to sketch all the shapes.
Reuse drawing resource
Allows designers to perform modeling based on an existing 2D drawing.
In the process proceeding by degrees from conceptual design to detailed design, ICAD/SX enables an engineer to develop in the order of entire product -> unit -> part and to change the layer using the drag & drop method even if the requirement is changed during the design period. With ICAD/SX, the engineer does not have to concern about the constraints such as parameter and history that are peculiar to 3D CAD. ICAD/SX is the best CAD system especially for trial and error or reuse of data, and is proud of intuitive operation that allows all the engineers to make full use of this system. ICAD/SX enables a team to perform design work by default and embodies the fundamental process of mechanical design into the CAD system.
Create part configuration
Place parts into layers after the models are created. The engineer is able to verify ideas without considering the layers.
Reuse units
The engineer is able to reuse units without being restricted by model history or constraints.
Constraint-less editing
The engineer is able to edit models with intuitive operation without considering model history or constraints.
Parametric features added later
Defines constraints for a necessary portion later. Enables multiple definitions for the specifications pattern.
Super high speed geometric shape processing engine from ICAD/SX provides design verification for a large assembly in the CAD environment. Interference check and cross-section verification used to be performed using CAD and DMU. Currently, these can be performed with one tool.
Early detection of defects improves product quality and shortens lead-time.
Quick motion
Adds constraints automatically and performs kinematics simulation.
Mass properties
Leads from the part models the calculation results (center of gravity, weight and volume, etc.)
Interference check
In the assembly environment, checks the portions with less clearance between interfered parts.
Assembly Cross-section
Enables to perform cross-section verification and editing.
ICAD/SX, developed for mechanical design, provides comprehensive drafting functionality that surpasses commercial 2D CAD for the purpose of creating machine drawings more efficiently. ICAD/SX also provides the window specified for input of roughness of surfaces, GD&T, datum, welding symbols and necessary annotation items needed for drawing creation. A remarkable effect is found when creating and editing a drawing.
