Open Cascade - The 3D graphics developer

Open Cascade, a software development platform for 3D CAD, CAM and CAE, is supported by Open Cascade S.A.S. It can be used by industries, research institutes, universities or individuals. The fundamental functionality of the Open Cascade technology is modelling data. Any object can be created in 2D or 3D geometry using this software. There are other features too, using which you can create chamfers, draft and offset shapes. An interesting feature of this software is visualisation, which lets you view an object in different modes.


Open Cascade also gives you the freedom to adapt, modify and enrich the code as per your requirements. The software comes with a complete support, for which the user has to pay a nominal fee. But the fee is charged for support, not licence. The software finds applications in various industrial domains, aeronautics and space, automotive, shipbuilding, etc. BMV and TATA Motors use this software in the automobile industry and CIRTES in the medical sector. The minimum system requirement for the software is 256MB, 500MB memory space and OpenGL graphics library. For more information visit http://opencascade.org/
