| VariCAD
VariCAD is 3D/2D mechanical CAD system. It includes many powerful
tools for 3D modeling, 2D drafting, dimensioning, libraries (ANSI,
DIN), calculations, tools for working with non-graphical information,
such as bills of materials (BOM). Version 9.0-2.3 features unspecified
improvements and bug fixes.
VariCAD announces the release of its CAD system - VariCAD 8.2. The
compact package for Windows and Linux includes extended libraries
of mechanical parts (ANSI, DIN) and other improvements. To evaluate
the latest release download the software. To upgrade your current
VariCAD version go to your personal page for information on your
upgrade validity.
VariCAD’s Graphical User Interface (GUI) has been designed
to allow quick and intuitive 3D/2D orientation. We carefully tailored
and tuned the GUI to reflect the thought process of a designer,
so that ideas can be captured and communicated with a minimal number
of steps. All commands were created with a focus on ease of use.
An intelligent cursor, numerous detection and selection modes, 2D
construction lines, and the orthogonal grid are just some of the
tools that make working with VariCAD so easy.
New versions for SUSE LINUX 9.1 and Fedora Core 2 were released
today. If you intend to run the latest VariCAD 9.0-2.3 on one of
these platforms, download your free 30-day trial version from here
to evaluate this mechanical 3D/2D CAD package.
VariCAD contains libraries of standard mechanical parts (ANSI,
DIN), such as bolts, nuts, pins, plugs, cotters, gaskets, bearings,
rolled and drawn shapes, and hydraulic, pneumatic, and electronic
symbols. You can add items to these libraries or modify existing
parts - all 2D and most 3D dimensions can be edited.
Non-graphical information can also be assigned to parts, such as
type of material or supplier. This information is incorporated into
an assembly and can be used for material requisitions, bills of
materials (BOM), title blocks, or other purposes.
Drawing functions are geared toward easy use in engineering. Some
handy features of 2D drawing include: an intelligent cursor that
automatically detects objects and snap points, numerous snap modes,
flexible item selectability, auxiliary construction lines, ortho
mode, rectangular grid, drawing layers (up to 250), block creation,
hatching with automatic border detection, advanced dimensioning,
surface texture symbols, welding symbols, tolerance symbols, and
more. Dimensions can be in millimeters or inches.
VariCAD can calculate 2D section area, surface area, volume, mass,
center of gravity, and moment of gyration. A library of mechanical
calculations is also included, for standard parts used every day
by mechanical designers. These mechanical parts include tension
and compression springs, pre-stressed bolted connections, pins and
parallel keys, grooved shafts, bearings, beams under combined stress
(bending and torsion), spur and bevel gearing geometry, and belt
drives.
New versions for SUSE LINUX 9.0 and Fedora Core 1 have been released.

one of these platforms, download your free 30-day trial version
of the latest VariCAD 9.0.1.1
VariCAD provides a library of basic 3D solids (prism, cylinder,
cone, etc.), which are easily modified by editing the original profile
or parameters. Solids can also easily be created by profile rotation,
extrusion, or lofting. More complex tools include rotation blending
between two profiles, lofting between a circle and rectangle, and
creation of helical surfaces.
VariCAD 9.0-2.3 Update for both Windows (98/NT/2000/XP) has just
been launched. Your free 30-day evaluation copy can be downloaded
from here. To upgrade your current VariCAD version to the latest
VariCAD 9.0-2.3, log into your user account for information on your
upgrade validity.
Solids can be added or subtracted, thus forming Boolean trees representing
real mechanical parts. Boolean operations have options for automatic
trimming, or automatic removal of subtracted volumes. Predefined
operations like hole drilling, face milling, groove milling and
edge beveling/filleting are also available. Boolean trees are very
easy to edit.
VariCAD 8.2.0.4 updated version for Windows 98/NT/2000/XP and Linux
(RedHat, Mandrake, SuSE) has just been released. To evaluate the
latest updated version of this 3D/2D mechanical CAD package download
the software. To upgrade your current VariCAD version go to your
personal page for information on your upgrade validity.
3D models are easily converted into 2D drawings to produce conventional
drafting documentation. You can create 2D views of one or more selected
solids by defining the views in 3D. In addition, you can also export
specified sections. When the 3D objects are changed, you can use
VariCAD’s automatic re-export tools to update the 2D views.
VariCAD 8.2.0.2 updated version for both Windows and Linux operating
systems (including KDE3 version) has just been released. It features
new improvements. To evaluate the latest updated version of this
compact mechanical CAD package download the software. To upgrade
your current VariCAD version go to your personal page for information
on your upgrade validity.
