CAD Partner: IronCAD

ALGOR’s complete product line supports direct CAD/CAE data exchange of parts and assemblies from IronCAD^® and Inovate^® for use with any analysis type within a single, easy-to-use FEA user interface. Through an industry-standard plug-in architecture, our InCAD technology provides full associativity with IronCAD and Inovate - allowing you to make iterative design changes without needing to redefine FEA loads, constraints and other data. Even when the IronCAD product resides on a separate computer, this unique technology can be used for the same, fully associative interoperability.

About IronCAD

ALGOR's InCAD technology provided direct CAD/CAE data exchange of a turbine engine fuel injector, modeled in IronCAD (left) for a steady-state heat transfer analysis (right) to determine the temperature distribution from convection loads applied to the inner shaft and the outside surface of the entire assembly. The fuel injector is part of a turbine engine used in road transport vehicles designed by The Simon Floyd Design Group.

IronCAD is a cost-effective, full-featured detail design production tool that utilizes a new Creative Design approach that delivers a level of design freedom unmatched in the industry today. IronCAD is the tool of choice for design engineers when deadlines are tight and a high degree of unanticipated change is to be expected. It provides a fresh alternative to today’s history based parametric systems utilizing a radical new drag and drop 3D environment that delivers unmatched ease-of-use, and superior productivity.

Inovate is a low-cost, easy-to-use 3D desktop product for creating, modifying interrogating and communicating 3D designs. It is the ideal 3D design collaboration tool from concept to production. Its radical drag-and-drop 3D environment delivers unmatched ease-of-use, speed, design flexibility and power making it the most productive 3D concept design and communication tool available. Inovate bridges the gap between today's viewer technology and a full blown CAD seat. It is perfectly suited for situations where 3D design concepts have to be verified prior to being committed to a formal detail design process. It allows the quick exploration of 3D design concepts and the communication of those ideas through photo-realistic images and realistic motion animations as part of the collaborative process.
