Think3 CAD for Automotive

Computer Aided Design (CAD) is a breakthrough technology revolutionizing the way virtually every product is designed and manufactured. Manufacturing industry largely depends on drawing to illustrate their products during design phase.  Good design, styling balance, aesthetics and ergonomics is just as important as the product’s performance, quality, cost, materials and methods of manufacturing. Design automation  is one such CAD tool that offers manufacturer the option to customize their CAD system according to specific design requirement. It also ensures that product drawings are always precise during modification. . It offers engineers and designers the opportunity to create and test products quickly, accurately and inexpensively.  This in-turn significantly improve productivity  and save cost, time and effort in production.

Think design engineering & Think styling  tool provide a comprehensive CAD solution that allows companies to define their products in faster, more efficient and flexible way.

Image Importation
With this you can include work area 3d images in standard graphic formats from scanners or graphic processing application. These images can be used as a basic sketch to build the required shapes or curves.

GSM3Global Shape Modeling and GSM3 Zone Modeling
A creation and modification tool that enables to make changes in a quick and accurate way in any stage of design process and it eliminate the need to rebuild the model from scratch.

GSM3 Reflection Highlight
This solution allows to modify shape by changing the reflection light on shape itself.

Rake Sweep
Allows to work with a virtual rake on virtual clay, this control enables the creation of high quality surfaces that stimulate the movement of rake on the clay.

2D/3D/PLM Transparency
The solution offers optimized and interoperable 2d and 3d environment that fully integrate in think PLM. This way company can preserve and modify the exiting 2d data, securing their original investment and preventing the risks associated to the migration from a design platform to another.

AutoCAD Compatibility
2d drawings can be imported to Thinkdesign, modified and reused as native designs. Thinkdesign combines advanced translation functionality and modern and comprehensive design architecture.

Interactive Solid Modeling
The modern interactive solid modeling feature allows to modify solid geometries. Its solid modeling and surfacing functionalities in a flexible and easy –to-use design environment.

Smart Objects and Adaptive Measures
It allows the user to capture, reuse and share, either fully or partly, modeling sequences. The benefits are consistency and compliance to company standards, fewer errors and faster design cycles. Adaptive measure allow,when instering or modifying features, to input dimensional values directly from surrounding geometry, including solid, surfaces,static 2D geometric elements with one mouse click.

Integrated Sheet Metal
Allows design engineers to design sheet metal parts more easily. It also allows to manage thick sheet metal parts with features on side faces while the same model may include parts with different bend tables. This application allows to automatically generate shop-floor-ready development drawings.  

Advanced Assembly Management
Allows management of large assemblies and support both a top-down and bottom-up approach.

2d and 3d Translators
Allows 2d translator for DWG, DXF, IGES and GBS draftmaker. As well as 3 d translator for IGES, STEP, STL, VDA, VRML, WaveFront, IV, Think design neutral format and ASCII. 

Launching a new product onto the market requires a huge commitment in terms of costs and human resources. One step error in design can lead to huge cost overrun. This is why companies need to optimize the process of marketing new products. To do this they need streamlined procedures and high productivity tools.

Design Engineering & Styling tool have advanced modeling, analysis, and visualization capabilities. These tools are flexible, productive, easy to use, and easy to learn and tailored to the needs of  manufacturing industries. These tools give stylists the freedom to explore and refine product concepts.  It offers engineers and designers the opportunity to create and test products quickly, accurately and inexpensively. Moreover Design and Styling Tools synchronizes the form, fit, and function efforts of designers with all the other disciplines involved in the concept-to-market process. 


 Benefits of Design Engineering & Styling tool:

  • Precise product design – as geometrical and mathematical function integrated successfully
  • Keep track of design dependencies, customization of designs
  • Easy archival of, storage & manipulation of graphic element
  • Photo realistic product images
  • Easy & flexible  manipulation of 3d Images
  • Automating manufacturing unit
  • Real time control over process
  • Streamlined products and processes

Think3 is one of the most significant global player in Cad and PLM market. Building on successful 30-year European history, think3 specifically meets the needs of small to mid-sized companies. Think3 provides the only technology that links three separate design areas: the concept, its development and the finished product. In this way, think3 enables thousands of company customers to innovate, to compete and to rise to the challenges of global markets, by the integration of processes, which helps to accelerate time to market and to reduce costs
