Power NURBS provides innovative blending for constructing smooth blends between surfaces / solids you can also cap the ends of surfaces to close them off. Can also be used to create a solid from a surface.Ĭreates a NURBS object solid or surface by extruding one or more MAX shapes or sketch curves.Ĭreates a NURBS object by revolving one or more MAX shapes or sketch curves about an axis.Ĭreates a NURBS object by sweeping a shape/sketch along a path.Ĭreates a NURBS object by skinning multiple shapes/sketches.Ĭreates a NURBS object by rotating a shapes/sketchs along a path curve.Ĭreates a NURBS object by sweeping a circle along a path.Ĭreates a NURBS object from a set of planar curves which for mone or more closed loops.Ĭreates a blended surface between multiple curves and surface edges. Includes: smooth corners between fillets variable radius fillets chamfer, circular and G2 & G3 blended filletsĬreates an offset or a thin shelled object from a solid or open shell. Works on solids, surfaces and 2-D closed curves.įillets a NURBS oject by selecting edges or faces. Sketcher which automatically snaps and draws on faces of NURBS Brep objects.Ĭombines NURBS objects and MAX objects using Boolean Union, Intersection, Difference, and Merge. The sketching command includes easy to use continuity / tangency controls, and mirrored creation to facilitate your curve definitions.Ĭollapses 3ds max shapes and other Sketches into an Editable Sketch object which has control point editing of curves. The sketching tool allows you to sketch onto a face of another object and maintain the connection to that face if the face moves. Power NURBS/Solids introduces a new intelligent sketching tool that includes snapping and intelligent inferencing to other geometry. Imported solids and surfaces create Pwr_EditNRB objects. It includes: Hide, UnHide, Delete Faces, Flip Normals, Unify Normals, Intersection, Attach, Detach, etc. Many of similar functions to EditableMesh using a NURBS object. Note, Pwr_Assembly are also optionally created during Import of AssembliesĮdit the parameters (display tolerances) of multiple selected Power NURBS objects using a single operation. Bring your Power Solids objects into your favorite CAD system or send it to manufacturing.Ĭombines one or more NURBS Brep objects and MAX objects into a single NURBS object with optional sewing, merging or intersecting.Ĭreate an assembly representation with multiple Power NURBS and MAX objects with shared references. Note direct Importing of CATIA, UG, and SolidWorks® files available separately.Įxport NURBS Brep objects into IGES, STEP, SAT and Rhino formats. Import NURBS Brep objects into 3ds max using IGES, STEP, SAT and Rhino formats. Each command listed has has a list of the products that include it, (PT-Power Translators, PN-Power NURBS) and, a brief description. The following chart for a list of the functionality in Power NURBS, Power Solids and Power Translators. Power NURBS is a comprehensive and powerful surface and solids modeling package.
Shape - a MAX term which refers to a set of objects which define curves in space or on a plane.Sketch Object - one of several Power NURBS objects which enable the user to create and edit a single curve or a connected network of curves.This form of representation is typically used in CAD/CAM/CAE systems. NURBS (Brep) Object - is a new object introduced by Power NURBS which contains a boundary representation that utilizes NURBS surfaces.Learn More About Power NURBS and Power Translators
