Autodesk Powershape Malaysia – PowerSHAPE provides a complete solution for both product design and toolmakers. Whereas designers are primarily concerned with the design of a finished product, often ignoring the features required for manufacturing, mold and toolmakers require a complete model. For instance, some designers rarely fillet the sharp edges of a model or produce the necessary draft and split surfaces. These time consuming and expensive operations are often left to the toolmaker to produce. With PowerSHAPE all these are made easy, while PowerSHAPE’s powerful geometry creation tools ensure that the initial design can be completed quickly and efficiently. PowerSHAPE is a complete point data manipulation solution, enabling engineers to quickly and accurately bridge the gap between the physical and digital world. PowerSHAPE is quick, simple and interactive, offering even casual users the power to quickly solve engineering problems, from copy milling to feeding free form organic surfaces into the design process.
