产品优点
Sub-D 和 NURBS 模型都不能有效地解决所有的 3D 问题,它们都有各自的长处和短处。Sub-D(细分曲面)建模在生成和修改具有光滑表面的复杂自由/有机形状方面具有很大的优势;而 NURBS 建模则擅长组合形状,通过布尔操作和特征操作细化模型比如倒圆角、融合和面编辑等操作优化模型。Power Surfacing 则是兼具这两种建模技术,在建模过程中可以同时使用这两种建模技术,大大提高了设计和修改的效率。能够将 Power Surface Sub-D 对象直接连接到现有的 SolidWorks 对象, Sub-D 模型与相对应的历史设计树修改特征保持同步更新。Power surfacing 本质上提供了尺寸驱动Sub-D模型,Power Surfacing 自由曲面设计结合 SolidWorks 参数化设计为 SolidWorks 用户提供了一个开创性的工业设计工具包。

Power Surfacing is a revolutionary SOLIDWORKS industrial design add-in that will fundamentally change the way that engineers and designers design parts in SOLIDWORKS. Power Surfacing makes it easy and fun to design complex free form aesthetically pleasing Class A surfaces in SOLIDWORKS. No longer will you have to fight with patching a set of trimmed surfaces together to form complex curved shapes; manipulating Power Surfacing parts is as simple as modeling with clay. Power Surfacing, says nPower, unites the disparate modeling paradigms of Sub-D (subdivision surface) modeling and NURBS-based CAD modeling. Sub-D modeling excels at producing and modifying complex, freeform organic shapes with smooth surfaces, explains the company, while NURBS modeling is good at combining shapes using Boolean and feature operations, as well as refining shapes with operations like filleting, blending, and face editing.
IntegrityWare, Inc. is a company specializing in supplying 3-D geometric modeling and graphics technology solutions to vendors in a variety of industries. As a full service provider, IntegrityWare offers consulting services, NURBS-based software libraries, and Polygon-based software libraries.
