PowerSHAPE developments
• PowerSHAPE and Parasolid
• Tribrid Modelling
• CopyCAD integration

If PowerSHAPE was a car, which part would be Parasolid?
The Engine
What is Parasolid?

Parasolid provides…Library of 3D modelling and
editing functionsImport, export and storage of
Parasolid data
Delcam provides…Feature history treeGUIEverything else!
Parasolid for solids

Surface modelling
• PowerSHAPE retains all of its surface modelling
• Ensures that any design can be created
• Essential for modelling for manufacture

What are the key benefits of Parasolid?
Interoperability• Parasolid allows direct
import/export of Parasolid data without translation
Why is this important?
Parasolid benefits

Interoperability• Combining PowerSHAPE’s flexibility with speed and
robustness of Parasolid was always key• Automatic fixing when creating
solids from surfaces• Intelligent and invisible, many
common issues are fixed• Solid Doctor
• Advanced automatic fixes• Powerful surface editing mode –
fix anything
Parasolid benefits

Performance• Solid modelling operations up to
5x faster• Very fast import/export of Parasolid
data (no conversion)• Smaller model sizes
Reliability• Parasolid is an industry standard• 1.5 million tests run on every code change• Higher quality solid modelling operations• Higher quality hidden line and section drawing views

• All Parasolid benefits apply to Delcam Toolmaker– Faster, more robust solid modelling
operations– Faster Power Features– Higher quality drawings
• All standard catalogues rebuilt as native Parasolid
• Toolmaker will continue to benefit from PowerSHAPE development

What is Tribrid Modelling?
Tribrid Modelling

Solids + Surfaces + Triangles
Tribrid Modelling

Tribrid Modelling
• Unique Delcam technology• All types of data in one model so
less data transfer• Boolean operations between
solids, surfaces and triangles• More flexible for design changes• Fully supported by Delcam’s
downstream software

Reverse Engineering
CopyCAD Pro’s Re-Engineering tools are now in PowerSHAPE Pro
These capture the design intent of a part, not just geometry.
This is especially beneficial when the part to be copied is damaged or worn, or when a design change is needed.
PowerSHAPE Pro can now be the RE front end for any Parasolid-based CAD system

Conclusions
• Addition of Parasolid to PowerSHAPE has increased capability and reliability of solid modelling
• Use of combined technology makes Solid Doctor more powerful for data transfer
• Users still benefit from all Delcam’s surface modelling technology
• Tribrid Modelling remains a unique combination of solids, surfaces and triangles
• Addition of CopyCAD functionality gives cost-effective reverse engineering
