With some of the Python scripts available in Ansys SpaceClaim, this process is quite easy.

Checking for clearance or fit within a larger top-level assembly, using the deformed shape for additional simulation or physics, or using the deformed components in a production model could be a reason why a user would seek to create solid geometry from their deformed mesh. Watch the webinar now! Just fill out the form below.Quite often, engineers need to set up a model not by using ideal or undeformed geometry but by using a geometry that has been deformed as the result of structural loading. Unlike many of our webinars, which assume that the audiences has little experience with CAD, this webinar will assume that you have some experience with (or interest in) programming in 3D.

How to get started with your own customizations and tools.

An introduction to the basic concepts of 3D MCAD programming, such as transformations and part instancing.

An overview of what the API can do, with dozens of examples of both professional and entertaining applications.

Unlike feature-based CAD systems that force you to develop tools that fit with the history-based paradigm, SpaceClaim lets you work with your geometry however you want.

NET, but anything you create can take advantage of SpaceClaim’s powerful direct modeling capabilities. Not only is the API versioned, thread-safe, and. SpaceClaim’s free API provides the best platform for solid modeling application development of any mechanical CAD application. Have you ever wanted a special button in SpaceClaim that automated a common task, talked to other programs, or modified your model? Do you have in-house code that’s difficult to maintain? Have you ever wanted to add your own objects to a SpaceClaim design? Do you have special file formats you want to read and write? It’s never been easier than with the SpaceClaim API. Imagine a CAD tool that can read parts from any CAD system, fixes dirty geometry, and won’t cost you a penny for training.
