The first is the ability to record blocks and the second is to introduce the ability to create scripts using Python API within the SpaceClaim environment. In contrast, Ansys SpaceClaim has a distinct advantage in working with complex models, but the nature of a Direct Modeller meant that it was not intended to be used to build a model from the ground-up using parameters.Īnsys have addressed this to bring the best of both worlds to SpaceClaim in version 2020 R2 by releasing two powerful new features. Historically, Ansys DesignModeler has helped users to createparametric models but DesignModeler could become unwieldy when working on complex models with multiple dependencies. Typically during the design phase, multiple geometric parameters are varied whilean initial prototype is developed.

This significantly reduces the need for manual intervention when exposing the client’s designs to various design conditions. Building on the information we shared in our recent webinar and the availability of new features in the latest release 2020R2, these new scripting and feature tracking capabilities in SpaceClaim are now ready for mainstream use.Īnsys’s strength in allowing users to parameterise key design variables is well known. At LEAP Australia we have been helping customers across Australia & New Zealand to use scripting in SpaceClaim to create design templates that can automatically generate different designs, simply by modifying a few key parameters. In the latest release of Ansys SpaceClaim, CAE users can now leverage new scripting capabilities to help efficiently automate the generation of new geometry designs.
