In this new era of technology memory constraints cease to exist. Our latest upgrade to 64-bit processing paves the way for unprecedented availability of RAM, facilitating the effortless handling of voluminous assemblies.
Enhanced ACIS Prowess:
The ACIS 3D modeling engine has been turbocharged. Experience hyper-accurate modeling at supersonic speed, as the algorithms for higher efficiency and precision have been fine-tuned.
Latest File Translation Support:
New lines of communication to the most recent versions of DWG, DXF, 3DM, SAT, STEP, IGS and Parasolids (X_T, X_B) have been forged, boosting compatibility and interoperability within your design ecosystem.
Dizzying Redraw Speeds:
Enjoy redraw speeds up to 350% faster on Windows and an astonishing 1000% boost on macOS for heavy models. Performance is no longer a luxury, but a given.
