Pictures by PC CAD Software for 2D / 3D CAD Construction

 

2D Layouts and Mechanical Drafting

Create 2D layouts, plans and production drawings. Highlights include mechanical detailing such as DIN/ISO drawing borders, dimensioning, geometric tolerancing, surface texture symbols, detail views, screw connections, bearings, springs and more. Create 2D symbol libraries or select symbols from a range of standard libraries (electronic, hydraulic, steel profiles etc.).

 

3D Mechanical Modelling

3D hybrid (solid, surface, mesh) modelling facilitates the creation of 3D models using features such as primitives, extrusion, rotation, sweeping, skinning and more. Direct modelling (surface offset, taper, move, rotate) enables the flexible modification of solid geometry including imported STEP, SAT and IGES models.

 

Sheet Metal and Framing

Sheet metal component creation including flanges and HEM double flanges (control over length, angle, bend radius, flange location). Automatic and manual cut back of corners complete with the generation of unfolded 2D flat patterns to K factor values. Steel framing is also included for the creation of 2D/3D DIN/ISO and user defined framework (e.g. DIN 1024/1025) complete with automatic corner mitering.

No Maintenance Fees Since 1984

When you purchase our Pictures by PC CAD / CAM software, you acquire a perpetual license. This means that the license can be used on a workstation with no time limit and no annual maintenance costs. The software license is linked to the computer.

 

Transparent Pricing

Straightforward pricing with no hidden costs. Post processors for standard CNC controls are free of charge and can be generated and modified by the user.

 

Free Software Support Since 1984

Our customers receive free software support via e-mail and telephone, directly from our software development team (Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm).

 

  • We have been doing CNC milling and wire erosion with Pictures by PC for almost 30 years. This software is a very solid tool with an excellent price-performance ratio. Furthermore, the free, competent and very fast support is unbeatable. The post processors can also be adapted to older or exotic controls without any problems. It is great fun to be able to work with this product from SCHOTT SYSTEME.

  • At 1st Mold, we make aluminum tools for plastic injection molding. We mill our complex and high-precision forms using Pictures by PC. What we particularly appreciate about Pictures by PC is the ability to program routines to automate the creation of milling programs. It should also be mentioned that all the software’s functions are accessible as source code so that they can also be easily adapted. The support is very competent and helps should questions about programming arise. Even with the software updates, you can see that SCHOTT SYSTEME GmbH takes user requests and information seriously and integrates them into the software.
