What is Autodesk PowerShape? Autodesk PowerShape manufacturing CAD software combines surface, solid, and mesh modeling to help prepare molds, dies, and other complex parts for manufacture. Why use Autodesk PowerShape? Improve your CAM programming Access specialized modeling tools to speed up CAM programming Handle any complex CAD data Work with any combination of surface, solid, or mesh—even with poor quality data Prepare CAD models for manufacture Automate the production of manufacturable molds, tools, electrodes, and more. What you can do using Autodesk PowerShape Boost CAM programming Create complex 3D geometry to better control CAM software: - Mix surface, solid, or mesh data seamlessly - Import, analyze, and repair third-party designs - Fix faults that can complicate downstream processes Work faster with modeling for manufacture Automate common modeling tasks. Quickly convert product designs into molds, tools, and dies ready for CNC machining: - Core and cavity splitting - Electrode design and manufacture - Automated rib capping for EDM Access advanced simulation Use powerful mechanical and thermal simulation tools inside to verify your 3D designs.
