TurboCAD Pro 15 is the premium design software solution that’s delivered exceptional value to both 2D and 3D users for over 20 years.
TurboCAD Pro’s robust set of 2D drafting and 3D modeling tools enable users to create innovative designs for a wide range of industries and disciplines. TurboCAD also includes several industry-leading technologies, such as Spatial Technology’s ACIS solid modeling engine, LightWork Design’s photorealistic rendering and lighting engine and material libraries, and Siemens PLM Software’s D-Cubed geometric and dimensional constant engine.
TurboCAD Pro’s incredible flexibility, low learning curve and overall ease of use are hallmarks of this award-winning program. A completely customizable graphical user interface, SEKE’s (Single Entry Key commands), and a Part/History Tree allows for editing of complex designs in any order.
TurboCAD Pro is incredibly compatible with other CAD and graphics programs and formats, supporting import from over 30 file formats and export to over 25 formats. Our DXF and DWG file translators for AutoCAD are considered some of the best in the industry.
Whether you are a professional mechanical engineer, architect or builder, civil engineer, woodworker, hobbyist or student, TurboCAD has you covered! Plus, there are optional, specialized architectural and mechanical toolsets available for purchase, as well as plug-ins that extend TurboCAD’s capabilities into 3D Animation, Furniture Design, Computer Aided Machining (CAM), and more.
2D Drafting
TurboCAD employs over 40 line, arc, curve and spline tools, so that no matter the situation you’ve got the right tool for the job. When used with TurboCAD’s snaps and drawing aids you’ll be able to quickly sketch your designs with no restrictions.
Apply relationships between 2 or more objects via dimensional and geometric constraints for accurate designs which can then be adjusted easily. Make a change to one object in your design, constraints automatically update the drawing based on the rules you’ve set. Dimensionally drive your 2D profiles.
- Select Copy & Editing Tools
TurboCAD comes equipped with tools to allow you to quickly select objects by type, color or by layer. Coupled with TurboCAD's array & copy tools you’ll save copious amounts of time. When used in conjunction with constraints provide huge power to your line-up.
Dimensioning and Text are vital to any CAD Drawing ours include:
Smart, Quick and Baseline which allow you to dimension automatically.
Associative Dimensions - freely move, rotate, or resize the associated objects and the dimension will retain its position relative to the objects, and the dimension text will change automatically to reflect changes.
Precise Dimensioning up to 10 decimal points.
Formats include: Architectural, Fractional, Engineering, Decimal, and Surveyor.
Multi-Text Formatting and Scaling options.
- Parametric Parts, Blocks & Symbols
Easily create reusable objects, then drag and drop them into your designs. Parametric Parts, new in TurboCAD 15, greatly enhance this feature by allowing you to create your own parameter driven components for increased productivity.
A block attribute is AutoCAD-style informational text associated with a block that you can enter whenever you insert a block. TurboCAD reads and displays block attributes from AutoCAD drawings (DWG) and DXF files and allows you to generate your own.
- Hatches Patterns and Line Styles
Apply hatch patterns by object or pick-points to add the finishing touches to your production drawings.
3D Conceptual Design and Rendering
TurboCAD offers the benefits modeling with both Surfaces and (ACIS) Solids allowing for optimal flexibility in design. When coupled with LightWorks Photorealistic Rendering you’re sure to impress clients and associates with your dramatic presentations.
Provides realistic complex 3D object creation as well as data crucial for engineers such as Volume, Moments of inertia, Center of gravity and Surface Area. Some of ACIS tools are:
Rail, Sweep and Revolve
Facet and Edge Modifiers
Extrusions and Lofts of Compound Profiles
Face to Face and Branch Lofting
Section and Slice
Allows you to place lighting and luminance to your entire environment and allows you to apply bitmap materials to any 3D face for dramatic realism.
3D objects that are created by performing a function on a 2D profile can be modified to update the 3D object that is based on it.
Easily combining multiple components together to create one part has been made especially easy with TurboCAD new assemble tools.
Allows you to go back to any procedural step in your design and make modifications without losing any subsequent work.
3D objects that are created by performing a function on a 2D profile can be modified to update the 3D object that is based on it.
Publishing, Productivity and Reports
Automatically creates and enables you to insert standard views of your model into Paper Space.
Viewports have two components: a boundary and the view that it contains. Any update of the view is instantly applied to the viewport. Viewports can be independently scaled and displayed in hidden line draft and quality rendered modes.
TurboCAD’s desktop interface is completely customizable. Add command to any toolbar. Pop-up toolbars let you assign your most used tools to the local menu (right-mouse click), saving you from spending time navigating endlessly to use a tool.
Click any tool or menu item to instantly pull up the help description.
- Database, Reports, Tables
Define custom field reports, bill of materials and parts lists.
Architectural Tools
Walls automatically create openings for parametric doors and windows. TurboCAD also offers a host of supporting tools for walls.
Wall Dimension tool – Quickly assign dimensions to any straight wall, including dimension thickness. Place dimensions in parallel or at any angle from the wall.
Join/Split/Modify/Dimension Walls – Intelligent walls automatically join, intersect, and split when placing a door or window and even update dimensions automatically after you edit them
Intelligent Walls – Self-healing intersection and ends for quickly layout floor plans.
Convert to wall – convert existing lines, polylines, circles and curves into walls
- Parametric Doors and Windows, Stairs and Slabs
Allow you to instantly create and modify doors and windows, stairs and slabs. Specify types and shape, select material, adjust dimensions, and more. Find more options with the TurboCAD Pro Architectural Edition.
Door Type – Single and Double-hung
Door Shapes – Rectangular and Custom
Stair Types - Straight
Window Type – Picture and Awning Transom
Window Shapes - Rectangular
Intelligent roofs let you alter the pitch, add skylights, move items, change materials and self heal after a move.
Allows you to modify or customize your architectural objects down to the last detail.
Adding a window or door into a drawing dynamically updates the schedule. User has complete control over how text will appear.
- Integrated Building Materials Scheduler from1st Pricing
The most advanced, user friendly building materials scheduler available. Generate accurate real-time schedules, including specifications and price quotes. Create and manage multiple schedules and bids with your free 1st Pricing ID.
Place your design on a hillside or uneven terrain. Create terrains from scratch of by importing Triangular Irregular Network (TIN) data from standard file formats.
