thinkdesign tooling
The ultimate hybrid CAD solution for the creation of moulds and tools.
Tool & die creation. Built on strong CAD foundations, thinkdesign tooling features innovative technologies such as GSM (Global Shape Modeling) and Zone Modeling that allow real-time modifications of complex models. thinkdesign tooling offers libraries of 3D components and the most popular commercial catalogs, and it can be completed by adding CAM software, a wide range of direct converters and the fully integrated thinkPLM solution. The management of files in various CAD formats of varying quality levels is one of the most challenging tasks for mold makers. Therefore it is very important to have the right tools to easily modify the models in neutral formats (IGES, STEP, etc...) they receive from their customers. A key element of the mold design process is still made in a "mixed environment" that brings together the speed of 2D and the quality and accuracy of surface and solid modeling. For this reason, thinkdesign tooling offers a single 2D/3D integrated design environment that can be used by specialists according to their needs.
