Precise Conceptual DraftingViaCADTM 2D is a powerful, yet easy to use, design, drafting, and technical illustration tool. ViaCAD 2D has a comprehensive set of drafting and annotation tools making it the perfect choice for producing anything from simple sketches to fully dimensioned, standards compliant, production ready drawings.Comprehensive Drafting ToolsViaCAD 2D supports a wealth of 2D curve creation and editing tools. Creation tools include numerous methods for constructing points, lines, splines, arcs, circles, ellipses, and rho valued conics. Editing tools exist for changing parameter values of curves, localized and global edits using transformations such as translating, rotating, and scaling. Additional utilities are available for filleting, filling, smoothing, chamfering, trimming, breaking, elevating, and extending.
Drawing & Annotation CapabilitiesViaCAD 2D is one of the industry's first 2D drafting tools that is capable of assimilating 3D data in a meaningful manner. ViaCAD 2D can automatically create precise wireframe and hidden line drawings from any 3D component or assembly, including direct support of CATIA v4 and PRO/E Wildfire parts and assemblies. This unique functionality almost entirely eliminates the laborious and time consuming task of generating production ready drawings manually. Our drawing tools will not only create accurate 2D drawing views from 3D imported parts but provides support for the creation of auxiliary, detail, and section views.
