It would take a fairly expensive new multi-core CPU to make up for the raw clocking horsepower of the old Willamette core, given that no threading is involved.KARALIT CFD solution for ASMO car body. Under XP-64, Geomagic runs pretty well on it. It has a 3.8 GHz P4 (the highest core clock Intel has ever shipped) and a true 4GB of memory (none wasted to memory mapped I/O). Strange!Īfter noticing that most of these CAD program still don't thread worth a damn, I put together a real "space heater" of a workstation for cheap using surplus Dell parts. Sometimes closing the entire program (including the menu GUI) and restarting it can unblock a buggy impasse too. AD_PRT backup file that I don't use for editing. Certainly the program tests my patience-much like the buggy netfabb Engine does too! Often a small change will get something working, or doing things in a slightly different order or manner. It's still pretty buggy and often recalcitrant when doing tough stuff like boolean ops and merging the geometry of complex stuctures during extrusions, but the frames for our products ARE as complex as the demos and I created them with Alibre/Geomagic. They've fixed a few bugs and introduced others. I'd give up my preferred history-based CAD style for something that's fast and reliable anyway. I might demo DesignSpark a bit more and ask Spaceclaim for a new quote. Going back into a finished stl would be great but does not work in this version.Īs someone has said here if they could make a slightly better version for a few hundred euros or bucks they would get a lot of business from the 3d print community. But there is not much leeway between a model that will be too coarse and one that will be ridiculously heavy and overdetailed. The STL export function seems to work well enough if you tweak the output resolution to your needs. How many times I had to change hole diameters or the size of inserts for nuts because of unpredictable shrinkage in the print? To be able to go back into the model and change it is a great time saver, also if you need to make slightly different versions of the same thing. If one does not save each and any little incremental step of the design, there is no way to go back at all, you have to start over. Using Rhino, I often found myself stuck when I wanted to change something after the first test print. As far as I could see the most needed basic functions are there.

sketchup is like a melody played with one finger on a piano, here in DesignSpark you get the full orchestra. The trim function for instance is mostly correct in seeing which parts of a 2d curve you want to remove. The program "suggests" things and most of the time these suggestions are correct. The basic idea is very clever, putting a lot of intelligence and context based decision making into the program. I test a lot of packages to learn more about the different approaches they take tackling basic problems. DesignSpark/SpaceclaimForDummies orwhatsitscalled is useable for many of our daily needs with the 3d printer. Those 2 are extremely buggy or crippled down to the point where you cannot use them. This approach uses the same ideas as Autodesks 123 or creo.
Ed version of spaceclaim free#
Thanks for the hint to test this program! I started reading the thread and at the mention of the prices I went.again apples hanging too high on the tree.but then I downloaded the free package immediately and started to work with it. I could do all of those things to my imported STL file without problems. From that point on I could do anything I wanted to the model.Īs Spaceclaim is not feature based (like Solidworks for example) I didn't care that I did not have the origonal sketch or info. Spaceclaim detected the cylinders and with some assistant it turned those into actual cylinders. In Spaceclaim, I could import this STL file. Well, I started out in FreeCAD, but FreeCAD was giving me all kinds of problems when I tried to adjust a few things and I could not get the top "fingers" attached like I wanted. I made the dual-extrusion-mounting-aid in Spaceclaim: Just to explain a totally ridiculous example.
Ed version of spaceclaim license#
It's not cheap (I think a single floating license is something like 2k), but holy shit. I've recently been using Spaceclaim for some modeling work:
