"I have now been using IRONCAD for about 1 month and I am already 3 times faster than in SWX which I have used for over 10 years! I select what I want to move or change, and the rest of the design remains stable without the usual errors you get in other systems. I almost don't want to tell you about this - because IRONCAD has given us a real competitive advantage after the change of programs! "

- Jim Norman

You recognize the problems: you want to focus on your idea and construct. But the program forces you to use Constraints and Mate conditions that just mess things up and make you lose focus.

  • Constraints that conflict with other constraints

  • Replace one Part and the whole Assembly collapses

  • Add a radius and Parts will lose their reference

  • Warnings and mysterious Rebuild Error messages

  • Endless lists with Mate Error

  • Each part and compilation MUST be saved as a separate file

Did you know that it doesn't have to be this way?
Isn't it better to use Constraints only when necessary?
- The solution to your frustration is IRONCAD!

Man who is tired of errors in Solidworks

Congratulations! You have now found the way out of the misery and can avoid these by using IRONCAD. Design flexibly and make late unforeseen changes quickly in IRONCAD. By flexible we mean:

  • Sketches are created and modified smartly and easily without constraints

  • Parts are built with intelligent features in the history tree

  • Parts are freely positioned and handled with Triball without Mate

  • Supporting concepts, free changes and customizations

  • Focus on constructing in a single file, stay focused

  • Save Parts and Assemblies to your own files whenever you want

  • Use traditional parametric design only when it suits you

"Effective product development"

We are very pleased with all the functionality included in IRONCAD. It has helped us for years to further develop our home assistant with extensive improvements and efficient product development - not only in design, but also in production, fixtures and visualization. In addition, we really appreciate the support and training from Solidmakarna.

"IRONCAD can switch freely when needed"

NEFAB has over 300 IRONCAD users spread all over the world. IRONCAD solves our various design needs that no other 3D system can do. We use the fast, free flexible method for design and the more rigid Parametric method for dimensional variant management; IRONCAD can switch freely when needed.

"Very satisfied with the functionality"

We have found great benefits in using IRONCAD in production here at Husqvarna and are very pleased with the functionality of the program and the training and support we receive from Solidmakarna.

"Created really effective procedures"

As a design tool we use IRONCAD and as a PLM solution we use DDM. We have created really efficient routines with structures that are reused as templates in new projects. We are very satisfied with both solutions, as well as with the support from Solidmakarna which we have had as a supplier for many years.

Three different methods in one program!

Flexible modeling in IRONCAD

The fastest and most productive method for most needs. Based on creating Parts with a complete history tree and intelligent features. It combines intelligent models with flexibility in a unique way that no other 3D CAD system can offer.

Direct editing in IRONCAD

The method used to modify imported geometry. Select a surface and drag, angle or move, independent of history. No features are needed in the history tree, but IRONCAD can of course convert shapes to become features in the history tree if needed.

Contact us to learn more about direct editing in IRONCAD

Parametric modeling in IRONCAD

The method used to create models that can be dimensionally variant managed in a predetermined way. Uses constraints, like mate conditions, and can be controlled via formulas in a parameter table.

IRONCAD is a complete solution with everything you need

  • Permanent license that you own.

  • Choose or freely mix the methods: flexible, locked parametric or direct editing in the same file.

  • TriBall, as a hand into the 3D environment, position what you want freely with complete precision.

  • Lots of import/export formats. Both ACIS and Parasolid solid kernels are used within the same file.

  • Modify imported 3D geometry in IRONCAD - easier than in the original program.

  • Create in the assembly, having 10 000 parts in the same file is no problem. Link them out to their own files only if needed.

  • Sheet Metal, powerful sheet metal bending and unfolding functions. Export to DXF 2D.

  • You can also easily build customer configurations with drag-and-drop from catalogs

  • 3D library of fasteners, beams, bearings, gears, retaining rings, robots and more.

  • Associative 2D drawings according to Swedish standard, can also be saved as DWG/DXF/PDF.

  • IRONCAD manages mechanisms when needed, such as a robot with joints.

  • Integrated separate 2D to create new or to edit existing 2D DWG/DXF drawings.

  • Animation for filmmaking and rendering for nice selling pictures.

  • Integrated solutions are available as an option for PLM/PDM, FEM and CAM.
