Foundation Software offers complete support with expert training, professional consulting and continuing education.
Autodesk, Inc. engages in the design of software and services. Its products include Autodesk 360 cloud services, AutoCAD civil 3D and LT, 3Ds Max, Maya, and Revit. The firm also offers development and manufacturing software, which provides manufacturers in automotive, transportation, industrial machinery, consumer products, and building product industries with comprehensive digital design, engineering, and production solutions; and digital media and entertainment, which consists of tools for digital sculpting, modeling, animation, effects, rendering, and compositing for design visualization, visual effects, and games production
Bluebeam Revu is a software application that allows users to markup, takeoff, organize, and collaborate with PDF files like never before. Here’s how.
More than simply a PDF viewer, or annotation tool, Bluebeam Revu is efficiency and collaboration software for anyone who works with technical files.
This applies to a wide range of industries, including construction, architecture, engineering, manufacturing, and energy related companies. The built-in tools and functions provide users in these industries a sleek and powerful tool to get work done quickly.
Because of this, many AEC professionals have switched to Bluebeam Revu as their default PDF software.
The power of Bluebeam software is founded in the dynamic nature of the PDF file format. Although common, PDFs are much more versatile than most people know.
PDFs actually serve as a container for much more information than just the represented image. In fact, they are also capable of containing a collection of meta data including annotations, layers, digital signatures, 3D information, and much more.
All of this additional data can be edited, organized, and managed easily with Bluebeam software. In fact, the integrated Markups List offers the functionality of a spreadsheet, such as Microsoft Excel, right inside the PDF file.
This gives users the ability to filter markups by subject, sort notes, assign responsibilities, and more.
Steel Solutions is an advanced structural steel program. It has features such as creating/editing/exporting parts, assembly viewing, weld symbol & connection mark generation, true-shape plate nesting, imperial & metric dimensioning, and CNC exporting.
This software contains a detailed 3D graphical interface for viewing the machine and nest status in real-time. Set up saved locations and home points, jog cut paths, jump to certain parts or manually complete parts from the controller software. In addition to our 3D Machine View, the Steel Solutions Nesting Software allows you to view parts in 2D and 3D to view further details and help ensure proper part accuracy.
The DA-Offline range, an integrated solution between offline preparation and press brake, enables optimum machine efficiency.
DA-Offline software maximizes machine efficiency and production output of press brakes. The Profile-T software facilitates offline programming and simulation the bending process.
Production preparation, makeability and tooling verification, operator training, adding notes for production and many other functions can be carried out offline.
The Profile-T software offers advanced programming in 2D/3D in line with the DA-Touch controller software. The steps from the start of programming to the desired program including its transfer to the control are clearly embedded in the user interface.
Programming the product graphically shows a true scale representation of the intended product. Realistic product visualisation gives feedback on feasibility, collisions, required tools and tool adapters for production.
