ARCAD 3D CAD EASY licence


ARCAD 3D CAD EASY licenceThe EASY SOLID 3D CAD LINUX program for private use
With ARCAD you create in your computer a 3D model which can afterwards be displayed in any scale appropriate for DIN on your plotter or printer.
This is a CAD for the private users with the character of the professional office use.



ARCAD 3D CAAD 2024

ARCAD 3D CAAD 2024

ARCAD represents the quintessence from architecture, software know-how, modern computer capacity, consistent enhancements without compromises and more than 20 years of experience.

All conceivable components can be created by the 3D volume model of ARCAD and the completely free construction possibility in the 3D space.
Any construction is possible from the simple 2D-wall, the 3D-walls, single- or additional-leaf, concrete ceilings, foundations, simple gable roofs or complicated roof intersections over to rotational solids up to the most complicated solids by means of Boolean operations.

Of course a CAD like ARCAD makes a comprehensive assistance available.
Every command of ARCAD is exactly documented in the manual.
In addition, a help is also performed in a printable information window representable any time on the display.
Moreover, there are extensive tutorials to the different subjects which allow an intensive selfstudy of the CAD system.
The smart command explanation which belongs to every command simplifies in addition learning the CAD system without long training time.

ARCAD is a complete solution for the plan development in layout, view, sectional drawing and detail.
ARCAD offers you as an integrated system high plan quality, accuracy as well as all options of the planning presentation.
According to your individual preparation these drawings are pasted in the predefined drawing border of the character sheet.
The entries which are placed on the character sheet will be passed on with your entries of the scale (1 to 100, 1 to 50, 1 to 10 etc.) to the printing routine and accordingly plotted.
You can integrate texts and dimensionings into different TRUETYPE font parameter with free corner entry also as a long text.

    Generates free openings.

    With ARCAD you can construct in 2D as well as in the 3D range and look at.
    ARCAD owns a function with which you can create automatically different openings.
    Besides, you can set different parametres.
    These values serve as a basis to create them the opening to be generated.
    A new element which you can further use in all other drawings and models is generated.
    You place this opening at places in the brickwork which you can freely define.
    Afterwards you move the independent openings or exchange this for other types.
    All views are selected during the work by you with the mouse and are moved.
    Move the mouse, the perspective is also moved.
    Change the transparency of the brickwork around in order to set up your openings.

    raster image to vector file converter

    raster image to vector file converter

    You might use your existing drawings and convert them to CAD suitable files.
    Pictures are composed of small dots.
    ARCAD converts these dots to scalable vectors, arcs and circles.
    In addition ARCAD traces contours to polylines and arcs.

  • Dynamic perspective; the strength of the perspective can be adjusted on a real-time basis.
  • A model can be thereby fitted fast into a background photo.
  • Complete integration in the development system TUXBASE.
  • Quick dialog boxes without additional queries.
  • Homogeneous operation and homogeneous appearance.
  • Sections or centres of lines can also trap cursor catch attributes.
  • Automatic level in plan views; it can be selected by the user whether the input should automatically become leave to the system.
