Amit Kumar from CADblogbyamit talks about the new features of ARES Commander “Tons of new features in ARES Commander 2015 Service Pack 2, AREA command functionality developed to visualize selected area. Now you can see selected area in different color. Adding area and subtracting area will have a different color.” . Read the full article on CADBlogbyAmit
Amit Kumar talks about the ExplodeX Command in CADblogbyamit “With the ExplodeX command in ARES Commander, you can convert Ellipses and Splines into PolyLines. The command is useful to prepare drawings to export to other software programs that do not support Ellipses or Splines.” Read the full article on CADBlogbyamit here.
Watch the videos divided into 4 parts to learn more about 3D modeling in ARES Commander. Make changes to the external drawing 1 00:00:08,920 –> 00:00:10,720 We are working with this wooden bike 2 00:00:10,840 –> 00:00:14,420 which is not only a toy, but also a mechanical project. 3 00:00:14,580 –> 00:00:19,80 In previous videos, we saw how to create the saddle and its structure 4 00:00:19,280 –> 00:00:21,340 as well as wheels, 5 00:00:23,140 –> 00:00:26,380 frame, fork, and handlebar of this bike. 6 00:00:26,600 –> 00:00:30,620 The wheels are inserted in this drawing as external references. 7 00:00:30,700 –> 00:00:35,379 But the remaining parts of the bicycle are created directly in this drawing. 8 00:00:35,800 –> 00:00:42,80 To finalize the wheel we will open the wheel file to make the changes directly in this external drawing (XREF). 9 00:00:42,240 –> 00:00:47,720 As a result, the changes will appear
Watch the videos divided into 4 parts to learn more about 3D modeling in ARES Commander. Working with the Frame of 3D Model 1 00:00:09,340 –> 00:00:14,40 In this video we will create the frame and the fork of the wooden bicycle. 2 00:00:15,660 –> 00:00:22,360 To create this part of the structure we just need a closed polyline describing the outline of this shape. 3 00:00:22,700 –> 00:00:26,119 And then these circles to create the holes in it. 4 00:00:26,320 –> 00:00:31,160 The method we will use here is to redraw the outline of this figure. 5 00:00:31,880 –> 00:00:34,540 So, let’s select the polyline function. 6 00:00:35,180 –> 00:00:37,171 We can start here. 7 00:00:38,980 –> 00:00:42,199 In this case we need an arc in this section. 8 00:00:42,820 –> 00:00:46,420 For that we chose the option ARC with the “A” key 9 00:00:47,100 –> 00:00:49,380 and simply

Create 3D Solids with the REVOLVE command 1 00:00:08,540 –> 00:00:13,719 In this video, we concentrate on the wheel. We will build it in 2 stages. 2 00:00:13,920 –> 00:00:19,800 This video is focused on the first stage, that is to say the design of the “rim” and the “tire” – 3 00:00:19,940 –> 00:00:23,180 two solids created with the command REVOLVE. 4 00:00:23,540 –> 00:00:28,480 To create these solids by revolution we need 2 closed polylines. 5 00:00:30,160 –> 00:00:34,20 One closed polyline will be used to create the rim 6 00:00:34,200 –> 00:00:37,50 and another one to create the tire. 7 00:00:37,120 –> 00:00:43,290 To create these polylines, we use the basic drawing and editing 2D commands. 8 00:00:43,290 –> 00:00:48,390 We start by creating a graphical reference – a rectangle. 9

Watch the videos divided into 4 parts to learn more about 3D modeling in ARES Commander. Getting started With 3D modeling 1 00:00:09,80 –> 00:00:14,40 This video is one out of four explaining how to create this wooden toy. 2 00:00:14,220 –> 00:00:20,620 This series will illustrate how to potentially create any 3D element – especially with solids. 3 00:00:21,20 –> 00:00:26,720 In this drawing we see the scheme of the wooden toy that we’re creating in 3D. 4 00:00:26,920 –> 00:00:32,120 These are simple entities such as rectangles, circles and ellipses 5 00:00:32,420 –> 00:00:40,200 There are also some more complex figures which combine lines and arcs to create closed polylines of singular shapes. 6 00:00:40,440 –> 00:00:45,59 The goal of each shape is to create a single closed polyline. 7 00:00:45,280 –> 00:00:51,760 This is crucial to create a three dimensional solid – using commands such as Extrude
Graebert’s new Cloud-based CAD technology “ARES Kudo” just entered production phase with the release of the first integration inside Onshape’s Drawing module. Kudo in Japanese means “school of an open mind”. At Graebert we can relate to this: We are open to new technologies and the requirements of our OEM partners who can expect custom versions of our software to meet their specific needs. That’s why we named our Cloud-based CAD technology ARES Kudo (formerly code-named “Xenon project”). Read more about why we chose the name, ARES Kudo. The press and early users comment on this dawning of a new CAD era: Drawings are on track to be precisely what they should be – enterprise-class drawing capabilities with the magic and ease-of-use of Onshape. Michael Topolovac | Crave “Graebert is in a unique position today as being the only supplier of a cloud-based OEM CAD component. (…) When an opportunity like Onshape
