VX Designer includes all the advanced design modules of the VX product family. This offers an effective modeling tool without compromise. Integrated solid/surface modeling makes it possible for engineers to take advantage of the speed of solid modeling and the flexibility of true Class A surface modeling. With hybrid modeling you can handle solids and surfaces seamlessly in the same environment. With VX, it's also incredibly easy to sketch 2D shapes. Our Quick Draw function produces all common geometry with a single command and can be automatically dimensioned and constrained as it's created. VX burst technology helps create and manage assemblies by cloning any number of parts from other assemblies. Model healing, standard CAD formats, and VX PDM are just some of the additional modules that make this a very strong design package.

Bihler Softw@re bNX – The next generation – Technology Software for 3D design
Developing high quality products fast and economically is an essential challenge in today’s globalized world economy. In order to maintain their competitiveness, companies have to continuously improve their core process – the development of their products. Bihler Software bNX offers leading technical functions facilitating complex tasks required in various areas for development, analysis, manufacture, marketing and maintenance. Development of successful products cannot be left to chance. In the past it was very hard giving concrete information on the products’ performance, quality and appearance during the development process. Almost always expensive protoypes had to be manufactured. Thanks to the Technology Software bNX, processes can be analyzed, configured, designed and simulated when developing and designing punching and forming tools. Due to the virtual product development, which allows for verification in the run-up phase, development risks as well as development times can be reduced considerably.

Design for the entire product lifecycle
Manufacturing companies are driven by increasing pressure to develop innovative products in shorter time frames, while maintaining high levels of quality. Even with mature, capable 3D CAD technology, many companies have failed to significantly improve their design processes, and the benefits of lower costs and shorter cycle times remain elusive.
Transformation of product development begins with the design process, which fuels the entire product lifecycle – from simulation and analysis through tooling design, manufacturing, assembly, service and support.

Moldmakers were the first to use 3D CAD products, so their level of experience and knowledge of these products is unparalleled. Anyone working in the plastic injection mold sector is well aware of the benefits of using think3's design suite, which is well known in this environment thanks to its great potential and flexibility. Our long experience in this sector has borne fruit today with the development of a vertical solution which includes the tools needed to deal with a high level of productivity with the considerable work needed to design a plastic injection mold. MoldDesign is based on the ThinkDesign suite, which boasts well-known features such as hybrid modeling capable of managing solids and surfaces with absolute transparency, GSM³, a powerful creation/modification engine which allows work on the geometry in any of the product definition phases, and Interactive Solid Modeling (ISM), which allows modifications to be made to both native and imported solid models moving away from the necessarily parametric logic. MoldDesign's specific functions rely on this very powerful base.

PowerSHAPE provides a complete solution for both product design and toolmakers. Whereas designers are primarily concerned with the design of a finished product, often ignoring the features required for manufacturing, mold and toolmakers require a complete model. For instance, some designers rarely fillet the sharp edges of a model or produce the necessary draft and split surfaces. These time consuming and expensive operations are often left to the toolmaker to produce. With PowerSHAPE all these are made easy, while PowerSHAPE's powerful geometry creation tools ensure that the initial design can be completed quickly and efficiently.

Freeform Shape Modeling
NX Shape Studio is a tailored styling and industrial design package that offers the freedom and accuracy designers need to explore shapes and what-if styling in the conceptual modeling phase. By seamlessly integrating curve- and surface-based modeling, NX Shape Studio puts cutting-edge CAD tools into the hands of industrial designers. At the same time, the easy-to-use toolbox fosters innovation. These flexible tools, from drag-and-drop templates to dynamic construction, enable fast, easy creation and evaluation of design alternatives while providing real-time visual feedback. And there's no worry about changes or iterations, as associativity takes care of downstream data integrity.
With Shape Studio, designers can use practically any approach or modeling technique. For example, the designer might begin modeling by using standard parametric design techniques that employ curve-driven geometry. Then, when creating contours and integrating ergonomics, the designer might use freeform techniques. Or the designer could begin modeling without precise definitions, adding geometric constraints later. Construction geometry and style details can be rapidly generated by the dynamic mapping of 3D curves onto freeform shapes. Or surfaces can be constructed using pre-set combinations of section and guide curves, with the designer monitoring impact as it occurs.
All model data transfers directly downstream. And the fully associative database ensures that any changes are automatically updated in related applications such as engineering design, assembly, drafting, simulation, and manufacturing.

GibbsCAM Data Exchange
GibbsCAM supports a wide variety of data exchange formats enabling data to be read from just about any source. Basic GibbsCAM packages provide support for DXG, DWG and IGES formats. GibbsCAM solids-based packages support the Parasolid format and can directly read native model files from Solid Edge and SolidWorks. Numerous other data formats are supported through other optional data exchange options. With GibbsCAM you will never have to turn-away a job because you can't read in the CAD data.
DXF/DWG
Primarily used as an exchange format by drafting systems, such as AutoCAD, DXF/DWG is often used with 2-/2.5-axis production parts. Depending on the supported level of geometry, GibbsCAM can directly read in wireframe, surface and solid geometry contained in DXF/DWG files. Geometry can also be exported from GibbsCAM in DXF and DWG formats.
IGES and VDA-FS
A popular, well-known exchange format, IGES is often used by CAD systems to transfer surface geometry. GibbsCAM can directly read or write IGES format files containing wireframe and surface geometry. With a solids-based module, GibbsCAM can also read IGES solids. GibbsCAM can optionally read the German Automotive Association's VDA-FS data format for trimmed surfaces.
STEP AP203/AP214
As a next generation product data exchange format, STEP files are usually used to transfer solid model data. When support for the native solid model format is not available, STEP provides an excellent way to transfer solid model data to and from GibbsCAM. With the Solid Exchange Built on Granite option, solids-based GibbsCAM modules can read and write files in STEP AP203 and AP214 format.
