Version 10 of iC3D by Hybrid Software marks a milestone in the evolution of 3D design software for packaging. This update now includes Capture 3D, a precise grid management tool for deformation and modeling, which works directly with PACKZ, optimizing the design process.
Notable improvements for the OpenGL viewer
One of the highlights of this release is the significant improvement of the OpenGL viewer. Materials are now rendered more realistically, enabling users to accurately visualize textures and finishes. This feature integrates perfectly with the new version of 3D Proofscope, enabling fast, accurate approvals right from the start.
Advanced warp integration for metal cans
Another new feature of this version is the introduction of an advanced warpage model, specially designed for metal packaging. Thanks to Capture 3D, users can now select scanned model data, define warp grid parameters and generate designs ready for use in PACKZ. This integration ensures superior print quality, meeting the precision requirements of metal packaging.
Volumetric transformation for more accurate bottle models
Version 10 also introduces a volumetric transformation feature, simplifying the creation of bottle models. By simply entering the desired volume, users can precisely adjust the size of the model, guaranteeing perfect adaptation to production needs.
Additional features for enhanced productivity
In addition to these enhancements, new features have been added to optimize the user experience, including keyboard shortcuts to quickly switch between OpenGL and Ray Tracing views, speeding up the 3D modeling process.
