SpaceClaim provides direct modeling software for engineering and manufacturing.  SpaceClaim’s acclaimed software is intuitive and completely CAD-neutral. It enables engineers and other manufacturing professionals to rapidly create new designs or manipulate existing 2D and 3D geometry, without the complexity of traditional CAD.

Machine shops continually need to work with CAD files because designers rarely model for manufacturing. As a result, machinists often need to modify CAD files and create their own fixtures. SpaceClaim software allows machinists to quickly and easily edit 3D models in nearly any CAD format without becoming experts in CAD.

Traditional history-based CAD systems are designed for full-time CAD users, and are difficult for non-experts to use. With SpaceClaim Engineer, machinists can edit geometry, optimize designs for manufacturing, and clean up corrupt CAD data themselves, moving on to CAM three to seven times faster than CAD-dependent pre-processing.
