Hello, everyone. I hope I've posted the right section. until recently I worked in an aerospace company where thinkdesign was used for 3d modeling and 2d design. I was mainly involved in part 2d, but still I learned a bit of 3d. Since in the new company where I am working they do anything else and wanted me to realize parts to send in 3d printing, what do you recommend me as open source software as an alternative to thinkdesign and that it is similar? I tried various free software (among many freecads) and I find many difficulties in using it. may also recommend something valid for a fee (low cost) and have permanent licenses. Unfortunately there are no permanent licenses for thinkdesign, otherwise I would have bought the version before 2018. Unfortunately all the manufacturers of these software are orienting themselves all to the rental.
 
There are no profits in production. the basic version of solid edge (it is called "design and drafting") costs a little less than 3000 euros and does almost everything you need.
 
other alternatives? with thinkdesign the operations are very smart. You want to do some work on a face? immediately impose the work plan, through geometric figures that you build without too many frills, immediately realize the work.

All modern cad 3ds do what you say, how much are you willing to spend on each location? the permanent licenses I think they all give except autodesk and ptc.
 
I tried it and I can't use it! think has the advantage of having 3d and 2d together and switching from one environment to another. at most we would need sheetmetal and assembly modules. I thought thinkdesign engineering's license made you pay less.
 
I tried both space claims and alibre. Unfortunately I have many difficulties.
hi antoniopf, if you have tried ansys spaceclaim and you have found difficulties but you can see that it can be an interesting tool, and if you work with the sheet is definitely very interesting, you can contact expace italia that are the official distributors for Italy and I know that they carry out mini free courses for those interested in evaluating the software.
Hi.
