System requirements

•500 MB free disk space in your system

•Virtual memory of 500 MB – 600 MB

• OpenGL supported Hardware Accelerated Graphics Adapter or Java 3D recommends a Graphics Accelerator on your system with 32 MB or more VRAMWith Ethernet Card

Operating System Minimum RAM Preferred RAM

Windows 95/98/ME/NT4 256 MB 512 MB Windows 2000 256 MB 512 MB Linux 256 MB 512 MB Solaris 10 for X86 256 MB 512 MB

Installing CollabCAD

Installing CollabCAD on Windows:

– at least 65 MB of free disk space in the C:\TEMP directory. (the installation will not proceed if this is not available)

– Installation would require around 145 MB.

Installing CollabCAD on Linux:– Available in .tgz format. At least 47 MB free disk space on

the /tmp file system in order to install CollabCAD. (the installer will not proceed if this is not available)

– Installation would require around 140 - 150 MB.

Design and Drafting:- Provides facilities to build and editentities in virtual 3D space using basic geometry such as lines,arcs, and conic sections. The model-tree enables faster andeasier editing.

Surface Modeling: Various surface types such as Ruled, B-Spline and Bezier can be utilized in the generation of complex surfaces.

Solid Modeling: Solid primitives such as Cones, Cylinders,Spheres and Boxes facilitate the construction of complex solidsby various methods. Feature based part modeling capabilitiessuch as Extrusions, Revolutions, Pipe,etc. are also included foreffective modeling.

Details of Features

Collaborative Design:-

CollabCAD can be used as a unique collaborative tool whereinseveral designers can access and work on a common workspaceacross a network. Collaborative design work is enabled with aset of communication tools including audio / videoconferencing.

Database Connectivity:-

CollabCAD offers the facility to integrate standard tables anddatabases such as Standard Part Lists (SPL) and ToleranceCharts (Tolerance Manager). The user can attach propertiesfrom a database ( PostgreSQL) to geometric entities.

Scripting and Customization:-

CollabCAD adds an edge to its design package by enabling Easy-to-use Jython scripting. The script file can be modified to achievechanges in the CAD model. Even the user-interface can becustomized using the scripting according to individual preferences.

Data Exchange:-

Standard Data Exchange formats (like XML, STEP, IGES, VRML,STL, etc.) are supported by CollabCAD thereby reducing loss ofdata during translation.

VRML Preview: -With easily available plugins, models can be viewed on standard browsers like IE, Netscape, etc.

NC : -Basic operations of Roughing, Lathe Drilling, Lather Threading, Point to Point and Surface Milling. Tool Animation can be seen along the Tool Path. Generation of CL Data File.

Reverse Engineering :-

CollabCAD can be applied in the reverse engineering field since itallows for surface generation from point-clouds.

CollabCAD Deliverables

How CollabCAD is different from other softwares ?

• Collaborative in nature : -Multiple Designers can access the same part/design and work on it concurrently ( Simultaneouly ) and can save the part on Server Side.

• It is based on Open Source Solutions / Libraries and therefore the cost of development is low. Hence the CollabCAD is Economical

• Reverse Engineering• Multiple language support (English, French, German,

Spanish, Norwegian and Italian).

Integrated Specialised Solutions

• FINESSE/FINGRAF - ADA• FEAST/Pre-Win - VSSC• PARAS - VSSC • KNEXT - TATA Technologies Ltd• AutoCAST - IIT, Mumbai• FINEART - SERC• Steel Design - SERC• CFD Code - NAL • NISA and other FEM Softwares through IGES File• IDEAS and other CAD/CAM Softwares through IGES
