- Do you struggle to create freeform/organic shapes with SOLIDWORKS?- Do you avoid making changes to surface features because it is too time consuming?- Do you have difficulty creating aesthetically pleasing Class A surfaces with tangent and curvature continuity?- Are you forced to utilize software other than SOLIDWORKS for designing organic shaped components?- Do you need to import polygonal objects created outside of SOLIDWORKS? We have an answer that may work for you! Power Surfacing is a revolutionary SOLIDWORKS add-in that will fundamentally change the way that engineers and designers design parts in SOLIDWORKS . Power Surfacing makes it easy and fun to design complex free form aesthetically pleasing "Class A" surfaces in SOLIDWORKS . No longer will you have to fight with patching a set of trimmed surfaces together to form complex curved shapes; manipulating Power Surfacing parts is as simple as modeling with clay. Power Surfacing allows great flexibility and productivity in designing those difficult surfaces by pushing and pulling on the faces, edges or vertices of the part. You will have so much fun designing with Power Surfacing that you won't want to stop.
Features
- Subdivision surface creation and editing inside of SOLIDWORKS
- Import of Sub-D Meshes from modo, 3ds Max, etc.
- Intuitive on screen editing
