NPower Software, a division of Integrityware Inc, announced that PowerNURBS 1.0 will officially release on Sept. 15, and is now available for sale.
PowerNURBS is a hybrid modeling platform, based on Integritywares SOLIDS ++ Kernel, that brings the highest orders of surfacing, analysis and tessellation technologies to users of Autodesk 3ds Max and Viz 3D visualization solutions. PowerNURBS provides advanced Solids Modeling tools such as Booleans, shelling and variable radius filleting that are normally found only in high end CAD systems; it also provides advanced Surface Modeling tools such as high continuity blending, multi-rail sweeps and high continuity class-A surfaces normally available only in expensive Surface Modeling products.
Key functionality designed to improve design workflow includes a superior hybrid modeling paradigm that increases flexibility for building the most complex concepts; surfacing algorithms that meet the standards of the automotive and aerospace industries; intelligent objects that retain their parameters and update automatically through design revisions; and advanced tangency controls designed to allow users to have interactive feedback and greater control over surface properties.
PowerNURBS also enables designers from all markets to create solid objects that can be quickly turned into physical objects using modern prototyping techniques; now artistscan afford to bring their own creations to life using one complete design toolset.
Our Npower Software division gives us an immense amount of real-world feedback about how our modeling technologies solve real-world problems, said Gary Crocker, ceo of Integrityware Inc. PowerNURBS is a great product built for todays design professional, opening the way with a highly efficient method for designing complex surfaces and providing a low cost solution for creating concepts that meet the strict specifications required for manufacture.
