The Alibre Design Expert 3D CAD Design Software powers your design or manufacturing business with the world's most bang-for-the-buck engineering platform. Precise and powerful 3D design to power product creation. From consumer products to fixtures, heavy machinery, molds, and more. Beautiful, precise manufacturing drawings, patent drawings, and assembly instructions are just a few clicks away.
Dedicated tools to make the design of sheet metal parts easy and fast. Convert regular solids to sheet metal, and create flat patterns with a click. Power marketing, sales, websites, brochures, and more with built-in rendering. Drag-and-drop materials to create beautiful pictures from your CAD data. Alibre Design's mature toolset has been built over 20 years to power a broad range of applications, including yours. Alibre Design has a comprehensive suite of tools to take you from concept to revision to manufacturing.
Parametric design means you define the size of things with variables that are easy to edit later. Create parts of unlimited complexity, build in intelligence with equations, and make it micron-perfect for manufacturing. Combine parts together, define real-world relationships, and watch your design come together as a full digital representation of the finished product. Make changes that cascade by setting up relationships between parts or defining a global variable file. One model can house thousands of variants by creating Configurations. Easily switch between them. Create exploded views to illustrate assembly instructions and export as a 3D PDF, or publish in a drawing. Check the range of motion, check for interferences, inspect with 3D section views, and query physical properties.
Note: This software is delivered digitally directly from the manufacturer post-purchase. After your purchase is confirmed, the manufacturer will send you a link for digital download or provide access to the software through their own platform.
- 1 x Alibre Design Expert 3D CAD Design Software
- Python: Powerful, easy, and well-documented. Python is the go-to language for rapid prototyping and getting things done fast.
- Automate: Need to create 150 brackets in different sizes? Export 87 files as STEP, STL, and IGS? Script it.
- Construct: Scripts can make exotic geometry and assemblies. Make a part customizer that lets you send a client a finished model in a few seconds.
- User Interfaces: Create a graphical user interface for your scripts. Make input selections directly on the 3D model.
- Share Scripts: Our community is making awesome scripts, and you can download and use them.
- Built-in Math: The complex math behind sheet bends is taken care of for you behind the scenes. Focus on design.
- Conversion: Convert regular models or imported models into unfoldable sheet metal parts with an easy conversion wizard.
- Lofts: Create complex lofted transitions to connect different sheet parts together, especially in ducting design.
- Flat Patterns: 1-click flat patterns let you check for overlaps quickly. Create 2D drawings of flat patterns for production.
- Time Savers: Automatically create watertight corners, complex miter flanges, bend reliefs, dimples, and more.
