Latest Version of Parametric 3D and 2D Design Software T-Flex CAD 11 from Top Systems
:: 05 January, 2008
Top Systems is now delivering T-Flex CAD 11, the latest version of its robust parametric 3D and 2D design software, to customers worldwide.
T-Flex CAD 11 benefits from a new, modern, intuitive, time-saving user interface as well as impressive productivity enhancements, fast 3D graphics, and advanced modelling features.
The new version of T-Flex CAD gives users the flexibility to adapt the interface to suit the preferred working method, the current type of project or the current project phase: T-Flex 11 offers a complete range of functions from 2D drawing and 3D design to manufacturing, finite element and dynamic analysis. The intuitive workflow predicts which tools users will need in the context of the specific task they are undertaking and makes them readily available. The new integrated tutorial guides users through the program's functionality in a step-by-step process.
Connectors, the new model elements, significantly simplify positioning of parts and matching parameters when designing assemblies both in 2D and 3D. An extended set of options for projecting 2D views for large or complex models are several times faster, providing associative updates of drawing views after a corresponding change to the 3D model. T-Flex CAD 11 uses Parasolid 19.1, the latest version of the production-proven 3D geometric kernel, with the new functions and improved algorithms for performing solid and surface operations. The new group of modelling commands is introduced in T-Flex CAD 11 for changing the shape of solid or sheet bodies by various 'deforming' manipulations.
Significant improvements have been made towards easier handling of large 3D models and assemblies. The multithreaded data processing is now used in calculating the geometry of 3D operations and in finite-element analysis. The interface and graphics were adapted to the nuances in the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system. Import options have been extended to support the latest releases of Autocad, Inventor, Solidworks, Solid Edge and Rhinoceros.
The system user interface provides extended customization capabilities. Those include:
customizing buttons placement in the toolbars;
editing of button images;
the capability of displaying a tooltip text directly on the button;
customizing the contents of the textual menu;
editing the menu text;
the capability to add menu items to bars;
hiding seldom used menu items;
the capability to create custom bars;
the capability to create user-defined custom commands to launch macros, applications, to open documents, to open folder and library windows to manage files.
