We hope for even greater reaction from Rhino users." "Our Driving Dimensions plugin for Google SketchUp has been extremely successful - more than 9,000 users downloaded it in 7 months. "We are happy to share our many-years industrial experience in development of variational modeling tools with Rhino users,” said David Levin, the founder and CEO of LEDAS Ltd. A constraint manager tool allows easy navigation over all assembly constraints and driving dimensions imposed on geometric elements of a designed model. An assembled mechanism can then be animated by varying a parameter of one of its driving dimensions. Driving Dimensions plugin automatically satisfies all constraints and dimensions making a consistent assembly from existing parts. With Driving Dimensions 0.1, Rhino users can easily position their 3D parts with respect to each other by specifying assembly constraints (fixation, concentricity, coincidence, parallelism, perpendicularity, or tangency) and driving dimensions (distance and angle) between their faces and edges. With this plugin, Rhino users get a powerful tool for bottom-up assembly design and kinematics simulation with assembly constraints compatible with the capabilities of mainstream MCAD software packages. Novosibirsk, Russia, J– LEDAS Ltd., an independent provider of variational design tools known as Driving Dimensions plugins for different CAD platforms, today announced the beta release of its new plugin Driving Dimensions 0.1 for Rhino 3D. Industry standard assembly constraints and kinematics simulation are now available for Rhino 3D users LEDAS Announces Beta Release of Driving Dimensions Plugin for Rhino
