First, if you haven’t used Turbosquid to source models, check it out quickly. If you have used Turbosquid before, you know it’s incredibly useful to source just about any type of model you’re looking for. Tools, Cars, ROBOTS. Hust about anything. You might assume Turbosquid is a 3D model repository for media and entertainment, not…
Presented by When Onshape added linked documents a few weeks back, I don’t think I even looked out from my box of Cheetos. On second look, it might just be the most important feature of the year thus far.
The Onshape guys think Part Studios set them apart from other multibody CAD systems. I’ve been skeptical. After a few weeks of testing, I have some thoughts.
Implementing a fully digital drawing workflow from end to end is a desire of many companies. The digital workflow should be divided into two categories: the workflow for drawing creation and the workflow for drawing consumption. During the creation process, a digital workflow improves collaboration, improves communication between the designers and engineers, ensures data is…
Your choices for web-based collaboration are ever-growing towers of storage, sharing and data-viewing options that are turning into quite the trend in the 3D software space. Sunglass was one of the first on the scene with viewing CAD files in the browser and the widest support for 3D file formats, 3d software plugins, cloud-based apps…
Son, go get your ma, looks like SpaceCliam done got into the PDM’in, gone Sharepoint, and is gettin’ the IT folks all excited. It’s true, the young-ish 3D software company has sprouted some data management hairs on the bare chest of its direct modeling software, bringing you both an addon for managing SpaceClaim files and…
Just when you thought you knew everything about SolidWorks Explorer, Devon Sowell gives us his first post discussing tips to make your venture into the abusive and murderous world of data management easier to handle. Some Things you’ll learn: What SolidWorks Explorer is for If parts are open when a drawing is open (Hmmm…are they?)…
I’m not sure about you, but I am increasingly frustrated in the separation between 3D design and data management. Yep, I have two hairs left on my head and permanent marker all over my face from nervous twitching each time something needs to be checked-in or out. There’s creating a model and then there’s managing…
