Our CAD development focuses on SmartDesign, that is supporting our users with powerful tools and intelligent automatisms for 2D and 3D design tasks.
With HiCAD you are technically absolutely flexible in both 2D and 3D. Design your models directly in 3D and derive the 2D drawing from it. Or work in 2D, add 3D objects to the 2D drawing as required and automatically convert the drawing into a 3D model. As a modern CAD system, HiCAD supports you with proven 2D drawing functions, innovative 3D modelling and special functions for various industries.
It's very easy to quickly realize your innovative ideas and visualize them in a promotionally effective way, e.g. rendered, as 3D PDF or as stereoscopic 3D presentation. By the way, the full 2D/3D associativity also creates the basis for a smooth and productive transition from 2D to the 3D CAD.
With HiCAD you are absolutely flexible in terms of modelling techniques. Use free modelling (direct modelling) for quick corrections or rely on parametric modelling to make design changes at any time at the push of a button - from the first draft to the automatic generation of all required production documents and realistic visualization of the models.
Numerous reuse and automation tools help you streamline routine tasks and significantly speed up design workflows. The extremely compact data structure always ensures smooth design processes - even for the largest models.
Even if you change your CAD system or switch from 2D to 3D, you don't have to start from scratch, you are productive right from the start. Not only is HiCAD very user-friendly and intuitive to use; it also allows the reuse and editing of existing CAD data. This enables a smooth transition from 2D to 3D CAD, as you can automatically convert your 2D data into 3D models as required.
