EdgeCAM Part
Modeler provides users with a modeling tool specifically for
simple part construction, manufacturing modifications, and
fixture building.
"Many of our users have
a need to modify customer's parts, to enable manufacture,"
says Brian Steatham, Managing Director of Pathtrace. "These
modifications are often minor, and the power and complexity
available in design solutions provided by mainstream solid
CAD producers is simply not needed. EdgeCAM Part Modeler is
a perfect solution for users of CAM software who have a need
to construct or visualize workholding systems, such as turning
chucks or milling jigs and fixtures," continues Mr. Steatham.
EdgeCAM Part Modeler enables quick and simple construction
or editing of 3D solid models. It benefits manufacturing engineers
by providing a cost effective and immediate solid CAD facility,
complete with fully associative drafting capability.
EdgeCAM Part Modeler can quickly create solid parts and perform
Boolean operations to generate mold cores, cavities and EDM
electrodes as well as jigs and fixtures. Coupled with EdgeCAM Solid Machinist, EdgeCAM Part Modeler provides a complete solid-based CAD/CAM solution. It provides the manufacturing engineer with an easy-to-use and cost-effective solid modeler for both parts and assembled bodies.
Procedural Modeling
Part Modeler has the ability
to execute a series of logically grouped feature construction
steps as a single keystroke. The procedures can be driven
by design and manufacturing rules that can be executed simultaneously
across multiple parts of an assembly with automatic part-to-part
association.
Drafting
EdgeCAM Part Modeler provides
the user with a fully associative drafting tool.
