From concept to compelling visualization
In addition to standard rendering in IronCAD, Mark uses KeyShot to create complex room scenes.
- More control over light and environment
- Realistic visualizations of space missions
- Better storytelling in presentations
From design to realization
IronCAD is used not only for visualization, but also for physical applications.
- 3D printed models directly from CAD
- Highly accurate mass predictions
- Designs deployable for real engineering applications
Flexible and accessible CAD platform
After years of experience with other CAD systems, Mark deliberately chose IronCAD for its combination of power, ease of use and affordability.
“Software solutions like IronCAD enable small companies to deliver system-level concept work comparable to large companies.”
