Structural Steel Weldment Creation    

If you’re just getting started or evaluating the IronCAD Design Collaboration Suite, seeing it in action is the easiest way to get oriented and begin to grasp its revolutionary potential when it comes to engineering productivity and seamless collaboration. Watch these CAD videos for an introduction to its unique features.

The IronCAD Design Collaboration Suite — a complete range of CAD programs designed around core 3D modeling software IRONCAD — to optimize your engineering team’s design process, effortlessly move between 3D and 2D, and support seamless collaboration throughout your organization and beyond.

Structural Steel Weldment Creation

Machine design inevitably involves the use of structural steel members for items such as frames for tables, building structures, crane supports, etc. This process involves building profileS that can consist of 2D and 3D curves that layout the path of the members to trace followed by end conditions for members that are connected or intersected. The Structural Steel process is a specialty application where the framework for this capability has been added for 2015. You can use these tools to build a single part consisting of many different members and sizes that can be trimmed to define the appropriate end conditions. In addition, these parts will automatically be called out in the Bill of Materials with the name and length of each member to give accurate cut lists for manufacturing.
