Interactive3D Canvas with Rigid-Flex

Your products all have three dimensions. And viewing them in 3D is great, but going back and forth from a 2D design and a 3D visualization feels a lot like trial and error. Don’t just view in 3D; design in 3D with the Allegro Interactive3D canvas.

3D Bending of Flex Material

Bend flex circuitry in your design individually or in groups to verify assembly and fit, and see any collisions that may be happen when folded.

3D Component Placement and Movement

Move and place components in 3D, where it’s easiest to find and fix collisions.
