Description
TurboCAD Pro is an advanced general purpose CAD product for design, drafting, detailing, and modeling. TurboCAD Pro appeals to numerous professionals and others interested in power mechanical and architectural design capabilities at an attractive and affordable price. TurboCAD Pro features are extensible by upgrading to the Platinum Edition as well as by adding any of a number of plug-ins. In addition, there is an SDK for those wishing to extend its functionality in a custom manner. TurboCAD Pro includes all the basic drawing and modification tools needed to draw nearly anything you can imagine. TurboCAD Pro's powerful tools for 2D or 3D design include 2D parametric constraints, 3D solid and surface modeling, robust photorealistic rendering ray tracing, lighting and materials, and extensive CAD and graphics file interoperability.
In addition to including all the tools found in TurboCAD Pro the Platinum version includes additional advanced mechanical and architectural design tools such as:
* Easy to use Quick Pull tool;
* Advanced Pattern Constraints;
* History enabled editing of ACIS objects;
* Numerous parametrically controlled modifiers;
* Advanced Parametric Parts, and parametric symbols including the Weld Tool, Adhesive Tool, and newly updated Geometric Tolerance Tool;
* Comprehensive door and window styles, now with Window Muntins;
* Parametric Stairs, and enhanced Rails and Rail Styles;
* New x,y,z data input in the Terrain Tool;
and so much more
In TurboCAD Pro you will find many of the most advanced technologies in the industry:
* 3D ACIS Modeler from Spatial;
* Siemens PLM Software division's D-Cubed 2D DCM constraint manager;
* the Redsdk drawing engine for GPU-accelerated 2D Wireframe display modes from Redway3d;
* LightWorks photorealistic and non-photorealistic artistic rendering capabilities from Lightwork
Design.
The Platinum product includes all of the advanced features necessary for both architectural design and more specific mechanical design tasks. In prior years the TurboCAD product series included specific Mechanical and Architectural Editions. With the release of version 17, we have combined those advanced features into a single product - Platinum, as many of these tools' capabilities were applicable to a variety of tasks.
Because of the breadth of mechanical and architectural tools, the Platinum Edition also is perfectly flexible for users whose projects cross disciplines:
* Designer-builders and Contractors;
* Electricians and Plumbers;
* Sturctural and HVAC Engineers;
* Plant Designers;
and even more
