Follow the guided, industry-specific tutorials and sketch an idea or two for yourself. To get started takes only a little longer than installing a social media app. Yes, you can draw in any MCAD, but only Shapr3D makes it feel pencil-and-paper natural to do it in 3D. Pairing the simple Apple Pencil with Shapr3D’s intuitive approach to solid modeling offers a singularly unique mechanical design experience. Shapr3D waited until the release of the first MacBook running Apple’s new M1 CPU. Digital Engineering considers the MacOS version adequate and useful, but once you’ve experienced Shapr3D with Apple Pencil on the iPad Pro, it is less likely someone would also want the Mac version, with the possible exception of using Mac-based Shapr3D to touch up a model created on the iPad or in another CAD product. These models can then be exported into a standard MCAD tool for a full engineering workup. This 3D modeling app for iPad and MacOS offers quick, precise solid model sketching. Mind you, it is an iPad app and its ease of use makes up for this, and perhaps this isn't the program for doing advanced 3D work.Shapr3D offers a unique value position, something every vendor wants to proclaim but few really deliver. For any more detailed 3D model creation and for advanced 3D functions (such as vertex painting, edge sculpting and modifying topology), it just cannot compete with more advanced modelling programs. What I like least about Shapr3D is rather ironically, its simplicity. Also, it exports to several different file types - STL and OBJ file formats are allowed thankfully. With Shapr, it is unbelievably easy to create 3D models and perform various standard 3D modelling functions (such as chamfering, extruding, intersecting and capping).įor similar functionality on PC, you would be paying far more and be in for a much less intuitive experience. 3D modelling and CAD programs traditionally are very clunky and difficult to operate unless you have full knowledge of the programs. What I like most about Shapr3D is its genuine ease of use.

Opmerkingen: Shapr3D is remarkably simple to use, and great for creating quick and fairly simple 3D models, with a range of export options and a generous free trial.
