KOMPAS-3D V9 LT (http://ascon.net/download.php)

KOMPAS-3D V9 is intended for creating three-dimensional associative models for individual parts and assembly units containing both original and standardized structural elements. The parametric technology allows quickly obtaining models for typical products basing on a once designed prototype. Numerous service functions facilitate solving auxiliary designing and production maintenance problems. A key feature of KOMPAS-3D V9 is the use of its own mathematical core and parametric technologies developed by ASCON specialists. The basic problem being solved by the system is the modelling of products in order to considerably reduce the period of their designing and launch them into production as fast as possible. These purposes being reached by means of the following features: Fast creating of engineering and design documentation, necessary for production output (assembly drawings, BOM, detail drawings etc.)Translating geometry into design applicationsTranslating geometry into control-program development kits for NC-controlled equipmentCreating additional images (for example, for catalogue creation, for creating of illustrations of manuals etc.)The model export/import tools (KOMPAS-3D supports IGES, SAT, XT, STEP, VRML formats) provide functioning of complexes containing various CAD/CAM/CAE systems.The product modelling in KOMPAS-3D V9 can be carried out by various methods, namely: down-top modelling (using finished components), top-down modelling (designing components in the context of a specific design), modelling based on a layout outline drawing (for example, on a kinematic diagram) or a combination of modelling methods. Such ideology provides obtaining easily modifiable associative models.

3DVIA Shape 2.0 (http://www.3dvia.com/software/3dvia-shape/whats-new/)

Vendor description: Dassault Systemes 3DVIA Shape 2.0, is the latest release of its online 3D modeling software featuring an all new and expanded 3D remix capability. This new feature makes creating and publishing 3D content incredibly easy by allowing users to build 3D scenes with models on the 3DVIA.com content library.

The remix functionality is accessed through a search panel within the product�s user interface. Users can search models on 3DVIA.com, select the models they want and import them directly into their scene. With remix, users can create models of just about anything and publish them online with a few clicks of a mouse. For example, a user who builds a 3D house can accessorize it with furniture, cars and more using models posted by the over 45,000 and growing registered users of the site.

With the addition of the new 3D remix feature, 3DVIA Shape 2.0 now provides three main areas of functionality:

SHAPE: Express ideas in 3D with a simple, but powerful 3D modeling software designed so that anyone can use it

REMIX: Edit and modify Shape models published by other users, or skip right to constructing complete 3D scenes with models posted by the 3DVIA community

PUBLISH: Publish and share work directly through 3DVIA.com, on blogs, profiles or Web pages with the embeddable 3DVIA interactive player

AllyCAD (FREEWARE Version) (http://www.allycad.com/Demo/AllyCAD_demo.asp)

AllyCAD is a world-class professional 2D CAD package that is renowned for its power and ease-of-use. The advanced functionality and specialised toolkits are specifically designed to speed up your design time and increase your productivity. To us, our greatest cause of pride is a satisfied and creatively productive customer. It is for this reason that we have designed AllyCAD to work the way you do, intuitively and naturally.

AllyCAD is rated as one of the FASTEST Windows CAD packages available. It outperforms (10-20x) the speed of the competition, on redraws, snaps, and loading of drawings. We've spent hundred of hours analyzing CAD drafting methods, and we have developed an optimized command execution system that places the most common CAD operations within one keystroke or button click. New users find AllyCAD's interface to be exceptionally intuitive and quickly get the hang of it in no time.

While many CAD systems put a vast arsenal of snaps and cursor moves at your disposal, they usually force you to draw the way the programmers want to draw, and not the way you would draw naturally. That is why we include geometry lines in AllyCAD. Geometry lines are a superset of construction lines. They allow you to define the layout, position lines and arcs tangential to each other, and to define the basic layout of the drawing elements. Thereafter you can simply fill in with solid lines to create the objects.

When it comes to compatibility, AllyCAD fully supports the reading and writing of AutoCAD's DWG format, DXF, Caddie CEX and Arcview SHP. This gives you the flexibility to move between drawings without having to worry about incompatibilities and data exchange problems.

We offer this freeware version to give users a true taste of the ease-of-use and functionality of AllyCAD. It is a working version of our highly acclaimed AllyCAD Professional version with ALL its features, functionality and even the sought after Toolkits, yet is limited in terms of drawing size (150 KB). AllyCAD Freeware is popular with various academic institutions as well as users who have smaller drawing requirements.
