Most 3D solutions on the market are optimized for documenting finished solutions. Drawing something that you already know how it should look. "Plan your design before you start, also think about how you want to change the model in the future" says the manual. As if you always knew what the end result would look like! This is exactly the opposite of how product development works in reality. This problem with traditional 3D CAD costs Swedish industry many millions every year.
Instead, designers want to test, change freely, get new ideas, meet customers' changing requirements and so on. IRONCAD revolutionizes 3D CAD by solving this need. This is how product development can be truly solved. Combine the freedom to change as you want but still have intelligent models with complete history. Flexibility combined with complete precision.
Cut tons of expensive time with IRONCAD and create better products by making the program work the way reality demands - adapt models freely without having to plan how.
Create complete robotic cells with IRONCAD - faster and easier than you think. Design new or use existing fixtures, grippers, fences, conveyors, electrical cabinets and robots in 3D using IRONCAD. Measure on 2D drawings when required. Let us describe how IRONCAD can help you streamline operations, reduce costs and increase productivity. The functions are included in IRONCAD and no additional module is needed.

See examplesWith IRONCAD's Sheet Metal features, you can create folded sheets in 3D and unfold them into a flat version. You can dimension both the folded and unfolded version of a 2D drawing and also export the unfolded version to DXF at the touch of a button for use in the laser cutter. Sheet Metal for 3D CAD has never been faster and easier!

See examplesWith IRONCAD you can create different types of structures and equipment for the construction industry faster and easier. Whether you are designing a new solution or adapting an existing structure to your customer's needs, IRONCAD is the most suitable solution. You can save a lot of precious time with IRONCAD and design in a more free, efficient and flexible way.

See examplesDesign hydraulics solutions in 3D CAD with IRONCAD. Fast, easy and flexible. Import purchased components such as motors and pumps. Create your own solutions like valve blocks, hydraulic tanks and frames. Unbeatably easy to design hydraulics in 3D with IRONCAD. It does not require an extra module but uses functions included in IRONCAD. Why not let your company benefit from IRONCAD too ?

See examplesUsing 3D CAD for layout makes it easier to optimise the use of premises. With IRONCAD you can quickly create layouts with 3D CAD and plan for production, for example. You can place and move all objects freely with full precision. Moreover, you can have 10,000s of parts in the same file. IRONCAD has powerful tools to simplify e.g. imported CNC machines. There is time and money to save for you!

See examplesCreate beams and entire frames in 3D quickly and easily. Choose beams from an extensive standard range (e.g. from Tibnor or BE Group) or create your own dimensions. You can also solve other typical needs such as steel stairs, railings and general construction. Measured 2D drawings depicting the 3D models can of course be created easily.

See examplesCreate different types of corrugated packaging and cardboard interiors with IRONCAD - directly in 3D. It does not require an additional module but uses functions included in IRONCAD. This completely new method creates new opportunities to streamline an entire industry.
See examplesThe TriBall is an amazing feature in IRONCAD. You can move, copy or modify anything in 3D. Freely, lightning fast and with full precision. Replaces the need for Plan. Drag & drop finished 3D shapes, parts or entire assemblies to/from catalogs. Or use a 2D sketch and extrude into 3D - choose what works best at any given moment. Pull handles and snap to other parts, even in other assemblies, to make precise changes in seconds.
IRONCAD solves the need to create different variants of a product incredibly efficiently. Drag & drop smart parts from catalogs. These are attached together magnetically and also resize automatically depending on where you place them. Dimensions of entire assemblys are adjusted in a flash by pulling handles - done!
With IRONCAD you use Parametric Design when appropriate and Free Design in the normal case. You choose freely between both methods and switch in the same batch. Here, complete and customized solutions can be created easily and quickly!
The file management in IRONCAD is a real time saver. You can design directly in the assembly in one and the same file, whether the design consists of 1 or 10,000 parts. Link parts to external files only if and when you want. You can focus on construction instead of administration. No more creating the part in a separate file and guessing if it fits in the assembly. You can create assemblies with a mouse click in the 3D scene. True "Top - Down design"! Of course, you can also link existing files "Bottom - Up". Here, many people think that IRONCAD works so much more smoothly than in traditional solutions such as SolidWorks, Creo and Inventor.
With IRONCAD you can create geometries that cannot be done with old technology where the CAD solution only uses a solid kernel, often ACIS or Parasolid. On the other hand, you can benefit from this when modeling details in IRONCAD as shown in the movie. The different solid cores have their limitations and advantages. You can specify which core should be the default. But you can also quickly change solid kernel with the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+K" on a Part or entire compilation afterwards!
Another great advantage is when importing 3D files from different formats such as STEP. Imported geometry is created in the solid core you have chosen as default. Sometimes the conversion can be less good and then it is really great advantage to be able to import to the other solid core as an alternative.
IC Mechanical is a Toolbox that solves your need for various standard components in 3D such as screws, nuts, washers, threads, steel beams, aluminum profiles, lock rings, o-rings, packing boxes, sprockets, boom joints, keyways and more. Also included are really smart features such as steel stairs, railings, piping, extended BOM tools, creating unique QR codes for 2D drawings, lightning fast 2D DWG/DXF export directly from 3D and more.
Solidmakarna are involved in the development of IC Mechanical and therefore many standard components follow the Swedish standard. We also bring in new requests quickly.
IronCAD Web Viewer is a great tool for showing your 3D CAD models to others. Since it only requires a web browser, this tool is great for explaining what you mean, presentations, sales and collaboration. No installation of any viewer or software is needed to view the files. You can even show your products in 3D on your website like our example here.

IRONCAD DRAFT can open 3D files created in IRONCAD or import 3D geometries in various neutral formats. These 3D models can then be positioned, animated, rendered with the integrated tools of DRAFT. Use IRONCAD DRAFT to manage 3D models created by customers and colleagues. The 3D files can be easily mapped onto 2D drawing with a familiar user interface and powerful tools for detail drawing and dimensioning in 2D. Of course, the user can create 2D drawing directly without imaging 3D models.
Many people also use DRAFT to manage their own or customers' 2D drawings in a cost-effective way.
