Design products, create associative drawings and analyze design ideas quickly with CoCreate OneSpace Modeling Personal Edition (PE), our completely free 3D CAD software. The ease of use of an explicit modeling based approach to 3D design brings Microsoft® Office-like productivity to the design process. Easy 'copy & paste' modeling techniques, 'drag & drop' assembly management, and a history-free approach gives ultimate flexibility to 3D design creation and modification.

Features

Explicit Modeling Kernel
Design using the software industry’s #1 history-free CAD kernel.

60 Part Product Designs
Create and load product designs containing up to 60 unique parts within one CAD session, the highest number of parts available with any free personal edition MCAD software.

Easiest to Learn & Use
Don’t let the complexity of history based 3D CAD systems turn your good engineers into bad modelers. Actively start designing in OneSpace Modeling on the first day and achieve full productivity in only 4 to 6 weeks versus 4 to 6 months.

Automatic Feature Recognition
A feature is anything you want it to be in OneSpace Modeling PE. Advanced design intelligence automatically recognizes features in context of 3D modeling operations — even on imported geometry from other 3D CAD systems — freeing designers to choose how they want to drive 3D design modifications.

2D & 3D CoPilots
Graphically drive 2D and 3D design creation, modification and positioning commands with ease. CoPilots intuitively calculate snap conditions and geometric relationships on the fly, while users manage an adaptive on-screen grid and are allowed to quickly key-in values independent of menus.

Annotation
Annotation within OneSpace Modeling PE generates associative drawings from 3D designs that can be printed as professional finished plan sets that are ready for manufacturing (without any ‘personal edition’ watermarks).

Automatic 2D View Creation
Quickly and easily create standard, section, detailed, cutaway, broken, flat and any customized 2D view using the Annotation Drawing Wizard.

3D to 2D Associative Drawings
Create fully associative, one-way, 2D drawings and plan sets synchronized with the master 3D model.

Clash Analysis
Let your 3D design be your virtual prototype. Locate conflicts in advance of physical product and slash the number of physical mockups along with prototyping time and costs.

Combined Part & Assembly Mode
Design top down, bottom up, or a mix of both. OneSpace Modeling PE keeps the two concepts together because engineers don’t just build parts or assemblies. They build products.

Drag & Drop Assembly Management
Managing parts and assemblies is just like managing files and folders in Windows Explorer. Simply ‘drag & drop’ items to match the product structure to the bill of materials.

3D Configurations
Define part and assembly positions, on/off states and camera positions to graphically represent as-assembled or open and closed product configuration states. Users can reuse any 3D configuration, like an exploded state, for associative drawings and design review simulation.

Bill of Materials
Scan 3D product designs to automatically generate an accurate bill of materials (BOM) table on drawings, while easily adding position flags to clearly identify part and BOM relationships.

Responsiveness to Change
Change is easy in OneSpace Modeling PE with powerful commands that leverage the strengths of an explicit modeling based approach to 3D design to quickly drive modifications across parts and assemblies.

Absolute or Relative
Design with absolute or relative coordinate dimensions. Also use absolute or relative values within 3D operations by choosing results based upon keyed-in values or relative positions based up selected faces or features

2D Data Import
Import using Autodesk® DWG™ & DXF™ formats in addition to 2D IGES.

3D Data Import
Neutral 3D design data from other 3D CAD systems is native 3D data to CoCreate. Import STEP and 3D IGES. Export options are available for VRML and STL formats.

Highest Geometric Resolution
OneSpace Modeling PE offers the highest geometric resolution in 3D design. Up to micron accuracy (10-6).

Easily Upgrade to the Professional Version
For companies and individuals wanting more, the full CoCreate 3D platform is easy to grow into. All 2D drawings and 3D models created within OneSpace Modeling PE can be unlocked and carried over to the professional version of CoCreate OneSpace Modeling.

When you’re ready for more, subscription licensing (rent versus own) and a 15 minute, 6 button click deployment model for CoCreate’s powerful data management are just a few of the examples of how easy it is to adopt the entire CoCreate OneSpace Suite. More importantly, our Explicit Modeling based approach and interoperability strengths means there are no switching costs in moving from other tools to the CoCreate 3D platform.
