Maplesoft announces the release of the MapleSim CAD Toolbox, an add-on which allows engineers to bring their CAD assemblies into the MapleSim system-level modeling and simulation platform.
- Enables users to better understand and improve their mechanical designs, and learn how their designs will behave as part of a larger, multidomain system
- Users can apply the advanced analysis tools of MapleSim to investigate and optimize their designs and final application
- Imports CAD models directly into MapleSim, recreating model components and preserving their kinetic and kinematic properties as well as spatial relationships between components
- Offers feature detection, allowing users to easily add new coordinates at points of interest, such as the center of a hole or along the edge of a component
- Provides easy sharing of coordinate frames between separate bodies, ensuring bodies will be properly aligned when joined
- Handles files from virtually any CAD system through direct support for a large number of proprietary formats, including those from Inventor, NX and SOLIDWORKS, as well as the widely supported STEP and STL files formats
- Once in MapleSim, models can be shared with other MapleSim users, or online using MapleSim Server, without requiring end user have access to original CAD system or CAD files
- Available on Windows for both the English and Japanese versions of MapleSim
