Ducting
Quickly create ducting from our database of parametric shapes. Select your shape and the ducting wizard will ask for the relevant dimensions and create the 2D flat using the built in bend deduction database.
2D - 3D - 2D
Our CAD modules are completely bi-directional, draw in 2D send to 3D add some features and send back to 2D.
Parametric Scripts
Need something special? With our built in parametric scripts you can easily create your own shapes ready for import.
Reports
Pre-loaded CAD reports with a built in editor to allow you to design / edit and make changes.
