One of the most exciting new features of TurboCAD Pro Platinum is the Pattern Tools collection. Six tools allow you to design models of incredible complexity.









Patterns are arrays of solid ACIS 3D objects copied in specific arrangements and which are controlled parametrically. Patterns are solid objects and they and/or their elements can be manipulated by 3D tools, like Bend; and patterns can be modified with Boolean operations with other 3D objects.

The six new pattern tools are:

• On Polyline (new in TurboCAD 18)


• Array


• On Curve


• Radial


• Spherical


• Cylindrical

When an Array Pattern is created, for example, the number of rows, columns, levels, and the distance between items in the array's x, y, or z axis can be modified at any later time.
