KeyCreator

If adaptability is key to how you use CAD, KeyCreator is for you! KeyCreator's robust translators can open files from most leading MCAD platforms and export to the standard formats you need. Unlike parametric-based modelers, KeyCreator employs direct modeling so you can respond to unplanned design variations on the fly — never rebuild a model over one minor change again! Drafting functionality dynamically updates drawings with any changes made to the 3D model, while the flexibility to link/unlink data simplifies the handling of complex assemblies.

Pros

  • Accuracy
  • CAD Integration
  • Efficiency
  • 3D Modeling
  • Speed
  • Ease of Use

SOLIDWORKS

SOLIDWORKS is the industry-standard 3D CAD solution trusted by more than 8 million engineers and designers worldwide. For over 30 years, it has helped mechanical engineers, product designers and manufacturing firms compress design cycles, control costs and deliver higher-quality products faster. SOLIDWORKS combines parametric 3D modeling, integrated simulation, product data management and direct manufacturing workflows in a single, connected environment—eliminating the need for disconnected point tools.
