Advanced 2D Design and Editing (Platinum Exclusive)

TurboCAD® is rich in professional 2D/3D design tools and drawing aids that speed design. Create views and viewports of any size and shape. Access extensive paper space and printing options. Multi-select drawing tool, dimension tools, and more.

Enjoy all the 2D Design and Editing features with the advanced exlusive features available only on TurboCAD® Platinum, like Select by Similar that is allowing you to select objects with shared or similar properties.

2D Geometric and Dimensional Constraints (Platinum Exclusive)

Make use of Smart Dimension tools that include parallel, orthogonal, rotated, and Auto Dimension tools to reliably display measurements of lines and angles.

By setting up Constraints in a drawing, TurboCAD® users have greater control to enforce design intent, as 2D Constraints typically drive 3D model design.

Part Tree/History Tree (Platinum Exclusive)

TurboCAD® Platinum Maintains your design history. View and revise changes and modifications performed on individual objects, groups or blocks to assess your progress. Return to any procedural step in your design and make modifications without losing subsequent work. Works like a Selective UNDO/REDO.

ACIS®-Based Solid Modeling (Platinum Exclusive)

TurboCAD® Platinum provides you with ACIS Solid modelling engine. Make your models realistic with solid objects that have volume and shape as well as a framework, skin (set of surfaces) encasing the framework, and inner “body”.

The thread tool, twisted extrude, extrude to face, imprint tool, parametric holes, imprint and more enable the easy creation of your more complicated professional designs. Access advanced modification tools like bend, unbend, and facet offset make it easier to modify existing geometry. Smooth surface mesh / sub-D modeling tools are also available allowing for the creation of more organic shapes.

Advanced Mechanical Design Tools (Platinum Exclusive)

TurboCAD® Platinum employs a large selection of mechanical tools such as line, arc, and spline tools so that you have always got the right tools for the job.

Intelligent (Parametric) Architectural Objects (Platinum Exclusive)

Set parameters of your objects by easily selecting and conveniently modifying the specifications of your drawing.

Advanced 3D Surface Modeling (Platinum Exclusive)

New Features

New & improved TurboCAD Platinum

New & improved TurboCAD Platinum

TurboCAD 2022 Platinum contains over two dozen New & Improved features and is highlighted by the inclusion of a new Physical-Based Rendering (PBR) engine, TurboLux™. The Platinum version has a strong focus on Visualization, 3D Modeling, and Architectural enhancements.

TURBOLUX™

TURBOLUX™

TurboLux™ is a state-of-the-art rendering technology that exploits Physically Based Rendering (PBR) techniques. PBR models light and materials based on the laws of physics, accurately simulating the flow of light, resulting in eye-popping images of photographic quality. Support for PBR-compatible Materials for TurboCAD is included in the 2022 release, with over 800, fully-editable TurboLux™ materials in the TurboCAD Materials Palette. PBR Materials extend the traditional color mapping with normal, metallic, roughness, and height maps. Combined with shaders for matte, glossy, glass, car paint, and metal, these new materials enable renderings to look more realistic by simulating real world imperfections such as scratches, roughness, smudges, or noise.

Visualize - Camera extended

Visualize - Camera extended

A new set of extended parameters have been added to the Draft Rendering page of Camera Properties. These parameters are available for 3 visual style modes i.e., X-Ray, Conceptual, Shades of Gray. Each visual style has its own set of parameters. When changing the parameters, you can switch the styles from one to another. The extended parameters include Edge and Face mode/color-related settings.

Associative intersections

Associative intersections

A new local menu option “Associative Intersections” has been added to the Intersection tool. If this option is enabled, the intersection curves created get associated with the 3D objects. That is, with the movement of the intersecting objects, the intersecting curves get updated accordingly.

AVAILABLE ONLY ON THE PLATINUM VERSION

Associative sections

Associative sections

Two new local menu options “2D section by closed polyline” and “Associative Section” were added to the Section tool. If the option “Associative Section” is enabled, then the section created will be associated with the section polyline and the 3D object. This is, with the changes made in the associated Polyline or the 3D object, the section created will also be updated.
