If you’ve heard about the exciting features coming in Vectorworks 2016, you can see them for yourself at booth #3181 at the AIA Convention 2015, where Vectorworks Architect experts are on hand to answer all your questions about the current version of the software, as well as preview three tools we know you’ll love once 2016 hits the market this fall: Marionette: As the first and only cross-platform graphical scripting environment available in a BIM authoring tool, Marionette lets Vectorworks Architect users create complex design variations and intelligent parametric objects in a Python-based environment. Energos: Vectorworks Architect users can make critical performance decisions based on real-time feedback directly in their models with Energos, the only BIM authoring tool that uses the highly respected Passivhaus calculation method to create building energy use analysis results. Project Sharing: Design teams will be able to work concurrently in the same Vectorworks file using
a multi-user environment to streamline project workflows,

Desktop Engineering announces that version 16.1 of the ANSYS portfolio of engineering simulation solutions and the new ANSYS Enterprise Cloud solution for enterprise simulation from ANSYS Inc. (Canonsburg, PA), is its Editor’s Pick of the Week for May 13, 2015.  “ANSYS Enterprise Cloud makes available the entire ANSYS application suite,” writes Anthony J. Lockwood, editor at large for Desktop Engineering. “It’s supported by Amazon Web Services, which should simplify and speed up your transition to cloud-based simulation. And it is engineered to give you consistent, enterprise-specific simulation workflows and data to more engineers wherever they are located.” “ANSYS Enterprise Cloud supports end-to-end simulation workflows, including pre-processing and 3D graphical post-processing,” says Lockwood. “That means you waste minimal time transferring files like you do with a batch cloud solution. You access it as a single-tenant environment, which further helps secure your data.” “ANSYS Enterprise Cloud can also be customized for your unique simulation processes,”

Zuken has launched the latest version of its CR-8000 single and multi-board design solution. This platform is a product-centric design application for creating complex product design. The release includes cross-discipline collaboration, multiple user constraint management and support for global standards. The CR-8000 platform has enhanced hierarchical and module-based system design capabilities. This, according to the company, makes it easier for engineers from all disciplines to contribute to the system design. Also added is the functionality to reuse constraints. The Design Gateway allows multiple team members to replicate constraints, reducing design time. Constraint information for each functional block is now directly associated with the block circuit, making copying, managing and maintaining possible. “We launched CR-8000 with a vision that design processes are moving from a traditional PCB-centric approach to a more collaborative 3D product-centric process. That vision is being realized as design teams adopt CR-8000 and benefit from product-centric capabilities such as combining 3D multi-board

Synopsys, Inc. today announced that Broadcom Corporation extended its license agreement providing access to Synopsys' DesignWare® ARC® Processors for an expanded range of advanced multimedia and networking system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Broadcom standardized on ARC processors to deliver advanced video compression capabilities in its SoCs for high-volume consumer devices. Deploying optimized video compression technology is increasingly important to conserve network bandwidth as global service providers stream high definition (HD) and ultra HD video content to a broader range of devices. "We have been a longstanding and successful user of ARC processors in our multimedia products," said Daniel Marotta, executive vice president and general manager, Broadband & Connectivity Group at Broadcom Corporation. "The new agreement enables us to take advantage of the ARC processors' power-performance efficiency in a wider range of products to deliver more differentiated solutions to our customers." Synopsys' DesignWare ARC Processor portfolio consists of configurable 32-bit RISC processors that are optimized to meet the

Gerber Technology has launched upgrades on two software technologies, Axis 2.1 controller software for the Gerber cutter Z1 automated cutting system and the CutWorks 9 design, nesting and cutting software. The Z1 cutter is a prime solution for single-ply cutting in a wide range of applications including apparel, furniture, transportation, and other industrial fabrics. It now features Axis 2.1 controller software, allowing users to optimize workflow with an intuitive user interface that provides simple step-by-step guidance throughout the entire cutting process, greatly reducing operator errors and increasing throughput, Gerber informs in a press release. The Axis 2.1 software also provides Z1 users the option to take advantage of several powerful new features, including a variety of new reporting capabilities and vacuum regulation. Tom Gordon, Gerber director of industrial products said, “The new user interface in the Z1 cutter is much simpler and user-friendly. Users now have this holistic, well-rounded experience with a quick

Delcam has launched the 2015 R3 release of its FeatureCAM feature-based CAM software.  This includes a range of enhancements to give high-quality results on all types of machine tool, including complex mill-turn equipment and five-axis machining centres, while retaining the rapid programming times for which FeatureCAM is renowned. Full details on the new release, including video demonstrations of the main enhancements, are on the FeatureCAM Learning Zone – www.delcam.tv/fc2015/lz  FeatureCAM was the world’s first feature-based programming software when it was launched in 1995.  Constant development since then has ensured that the system has retained its leadership in programming speed and ease of use, while an increased range of strategies has been added to provide more efficient toolpaths that give greater productivity on a wider range of machinery, including mill-turn machines, five-axis mills and wire EDM equipment. The most significant new option is the ability to duplicate the physical constraints of the machine tool

Intergraph® Process, Power & Marine announces the availability of Isogen® Piping Component File (PCF) reference documentation for free download and use. Documentation of the widely used Isogen PCF format is now available for complimentary download at https://ig-prod.entitlenow.com/DownloadCenter/?product=isogen_pcf. Data exchange is needed at many points during the design, fabrication, construction and operation of piping systems and Intergraph recognizes that the PCF plays an important role. Isogen is the industry’s most widely used software for automated piping isometric production. The PCF format was originally developed as an easy way to drive Isogen – the syntax is simple, English language style and is not order dependent, which means it is straightforward to create from most piping design software. This simplicity and widespread support means the PCF format has encapsulated a multitude of industry requirements to serve the needs for practical piping data exchange. In addition to its use with many piping design software applications, SmartPlant®

Elecosoft Consultec announced today that it has chosen the C3D geometric kernel from C3D Labs for its Staircon software http://www.staircon.com/. Staircon is the company’s CAD/CAM application for the timber staircase industry. The software provides the best possible support for the simplified, cost-effective production of stairs made of timber – all the way from sales through to manufacturing. By connecting the software to CAM systems, complex handrails and other stair parts are milled to perfection. To meet the growing demand from users for more flexible design options, Elecosoft Consultec decided to replace its in-house geometry library with a more robust solid modeling kernel. The company evaluated a number of kernels before deciding on C3D from C3D Labs. The top reasons for choosing C3D was its robustness, flexible licensing model, and good support. “By integrating C3D in our applications, we now deliver robust, high-level functions to our customers in a shorter time than ever before,”
