The TD Sketcher, one of our most popular products and designed for tool drawing creation, but also tool data generation, management and interfacing. This blog article takes a closer look at the new features and highlights of the latest releases.

These are the Highlights!

NEW With the current release, the input options for core diameters have been extended. In the settings for the core diameter, up to 4 core diameters can now be defined individually, whereby not only core courses, but also core jumps can be generated as desired. HPC cutters as well as step and contour tools can be designed even faster and more precisely with these extended setting options. In addition, the core diameter can now also be specified as a percentage. Due to the new input option, the core diameter automatically scales along and thus simplifies the creation of new tools based on existing ones.

NEW The new function Detail Views and Auto Tables enabless you to upload your own images or graphics, manage them and link them to an Auto Table to have individual manufacturing information available in all TD Sketcher drawings at any time. When drawing parameters are changed, the parameter tables are subject to automatic update of all linked pages as usual. In parallel, this version includes a selection of sample images and drawings.
