DesignSpark Mechanical 3D Design Tool

RS Components launched a new version of DesignSpark Mechanical, the company's fully featured 3D Concept Modelling and design tool that is available free of charge to every engineer. Version 2.0 of the software adds several important new features to enable an even better user experience. The tool's new simplified user interface includes built-in help text and Quick Guide tutorials, example designs, and also makes its BOM-quote functionality even easier to find and use. In addition, the tool provides access to a new 3D catalogue allowing the rapid insertion of tens of thousands of 3D models from leading component manufacturers, as well as the integration of all the necessary RS purchasing data for fast Bill-of Materials (BOM) creation. And thirdly, a 'quick parts' 3D printing service is now integrated into the tool, which is available via RS in conjunction with its partner 3D Systems.
