Emulate3D Onshape Integration

Concurrent Engineering with Emulate3D and Onshape


Emulate3D models can incorporate CAD from Onshape without modification or additional work, so developments done in Onshape to describe linkages and hierarchy are directly accessible within the Emulate3D environment thanks to native kinematic mark-up.

Changes carried out in Onshape can be updated rapidly in Emulate3D so there's little or no rework necessary in the Emulate3D model between different versions of Onshape CAD objects.

You can access your CAD easily and implement it in an Emulate3D model in one of two ways - either through the unique URL or from a cloud-based model directory.

You can switch all joints easily between inverse and forward kinematics so you can manipulate the linkages manually with a mouse or drive them with logic by connecting a standard Robot Controller.

Importing robots and linked mechanisms from Onshape is straightforward and adding control logic is quick and easy, even for multi-gripper manipulator systems.

Reduce your model build times significantly by importing kinematic CAD from Onshape.

Imported kinematic CAD from Onshape can be essential to your machine testing schedule in Emulate3D, necessary for the accurate timing of complex movements in your Sim3D analysis, or simply highly effective at demonstrating operation and enhancing understanding in your Demo3D models.
