Industry standard feature-based modeling for all your product development projects. Design freely, revise easily.

alibre-3d-model-splash-a.webp

Parametric Modeling

Create dynamic and precise representations of your entire product - a virtual twin

Great Sketching

Sketching takes most of the time in a model. You'll love our sketching environment.

3D Features

All the tools you need to create precise 3D models for your projects.

Real-time Feedback

See what will happen before pressing go. You'll always know what you're going to get.

Variant Management

House similar part definitions in one file and easily switch between them when needed.

Surface Manipulation

Import surface models from other applications and convert them to solids, trim, and more.

Visualization

Drag section views around to look inside the model, see model threads, and more.

Analysis

Find physical properties of the model like surface area or display the center of mass.

Data-Driven

Everything is data-driven, and you can import data from other sources like Excel.

Capable of any level of complexity

Easily capture requirements for any kind of manufacturable design.

Realtime 3D Previews

 

Visualize the results of every option during feature creation prior to committing the feature. Reduce the editing cycle by ensuring it's right the first time. Implemented product wide.

Analysis & Measurement

 

Various analysis tools allow you to interrogate a 3D model for its physical properties like center of mass or volume. Get a better look at hard to see areas of the geometry or create sketches of cross sections with the various section view tools.
