Product Design
Total Modelling brings together elements of Delcam's Power Solution software range in a unique,
fully-integrated combination of solid modelling, surface modelling, triangle modelling,
reverse engineering and decoration techniques. This wide range of techniques gives designers the ability to create innovative product designs easily and quickly,
without the restrictions of conventional CAD software.
After a period when solid modelling was the dominant design philosophy, recent years have seen an increased recognition of the importance of surface modelling. These two approaches are now combined in a variety of "hybrid modellers", including Delcam's PowerSHAPE software, which aim to combine the speed of solid modelling with the flexibility of surface modelling.
Total Modelling extends hybrid modelling to include other design techniques. This allows designers to move between the different types of modelling more easily and see more quickly the effects on the overall design of any changes in a single element. The range of techniques also means that the required design can be completed without restrictions or compromises, regardless of whether the starting point is a new idea, a 2D sketch, an existing product, a CAD model or even elements of all four types.
