GeometryWorks

CAD/CAM Components, Inc. (3Ci) is pioneering the future of freeform surface modeling totally integrated inside of SolidWorks. 3Ci’s development team possesses over 40 years of surface technology experience in the aerospace industry and brings proven surface technology to the Solidworks desktop environment. SolidWorks designers can now access freeform surface capabilities previously found only in more costly CAD modeling packages. 

GeometryWorks 3D surfacing system is for use in the design and manufacturing of products with complex surface shapes. It is particularly well suited for use in the mold making industries, automotive, and aerospace.  GW3D enhances design and configuration activities with its superior surface building and manipulation tools. Surface offsets, trim surfaces, curve projection, translations, and rotations are all accomplished quickly.  GW3D efficiently and accurately creates a wide variety of different surface and curve types, all with a consistent geometrically intuitive interface.

ShapeWorks

SHAPEWORKS Free Form nurb surfacing software is designed for engineers and designers to provide them with ability to create and modify the part geometry by simply pushing or pulling the face/surface control points in the desired direction. Easily create very complex geometry with the following features:

  • Create or Extract Nurb surfaces from any SolidWorks geometry.
  • Modify solid geometry by moving control points on nurb surfaces.
  • Make nurb surfaces tangential to each other.
  • Remove gaps and connect nurb surfaces.
  • Open 3DS, OBJ, LWO files and recreate the geometry in SolidWorks.
  • Reverse Engineering tools.
  • Work with cloud point data.
  • All SolidWorks surface features are applicable to ShapeWorks nurb surfaces.

SurfaceWorks

AeroHydro is a SolidWorks Solution Partner dedicated to providing quality freeform surface modeling tools to meet the needs of the mechanical CAD market. 

SurfaceWorks extends SolidWorks with associative, freeform surface modeling, giving you industrial design solutions which are unparalleled in value. SurfaceWorks surfaces can be attached to SolidWorks sketches directly or with intervening construction geometry. When you edit SolidWorks parent sketches, any dependent SurfaceWorks surfaces update as well, automatically! When you edit surfaces in SurfaceWorks, your SolidWorks part updates when you switch back to SolidWorks.

SurfaceWorks' powerful relational capabilities allow you to define relationships between points, curves, and surfaces. Relationships can include spacing between curves and surfaces, angular positions, mirror symmetry, fixed constraints, and accurate joins between adjacent curves and surfaces. These relationships are maintained as your design evolves, allowing you to capture design intent.

AeroHydro pioneered CAD software for designing ships and boats in the early '70s and continues to develop sophisticated surfacing applications for the CAD industry. SurfaceWorks is based on over 25 years of research and development in complex freeform surface modeling. SurfaceWorks combines AeroHydro's industrial strength surface modeling technology with SolidWorks to give you an unprecedented powerful and easy-to-use industrial design software tool. 

SurfaceWorks let's you design exactly the shape you want for your SolidWorks part!
