UG/Shape Studio

摘要

Unigraphics Solutions is now shipping Version 17 of its Unigraphics (UG) CAID/CAD/CAM/CAE software, which includes UG/Shape Studio, a product targeted at industrial designers. The UG software has always had strong freeform modeling capabilities for building complex shapes, but it was focused on the engineering rather than aesthetic aspects of design. Therefore, industrial designers created their conceptual work in packages such as Alias Studio, or they imported UG designs into such packages (and dealt with possible data translation problems) in order to visually communicate design ideas with colleagues and customers.
