Nupas 2007 v5.2(c)Cadmatic 3d hull

Nupas-Cadmatic ship design software was developed through a joint venture between Cadmatic Oy and the Dutch software design company, Numeriek Centrum Groningen B.V.

By combining our resources we have created a design software package that provides better design solutions than traditional market offerings.Nupas-Cadmatic is a unique CAD/CAE/CAM design software package for shipyards and design offices interested in improving their efficiency, design and production. The open software lends itself to efficient hull-, machinery-, piping-, outfitting-, and interior design while efficiently creating the required production and maintenance information. The software supports concurrent and distributed design leading to more cost efficient and effective design.

3D Hull Engineering, the main hull modelling module, is the core of the Nupas-Cadmatic Hull system. It is used for modelling of the hull structure from the early design up to the detailed and production engineering of hull blocks, panels and parts.
The 3D Hull Engineering module distinguishes itself from other CAD/CAE/CAM systems in that it is extremely easy to use. The intuitive user interface guides the hull designer with maximum assistance while creating structural components like decks, bulkheads, stiffeners, shell frames, girders, flanges, brackets etc.
Hull structures are stored topologically, meaning that relations between structural components and relations with the hull shape allow fast and easy re-use of information without redoing work. The effects of modifications on a topological structure are automatically carried through to the related structural components.
The 3D Hull Engineering module includes powerful copy functions, parametric definition of yard standards and many automatic mechanisms like part and panel numbering, marking lines, standard bracket selection, part coding etc. taking away many of the hull designer’s daily worries and routine tasks.

The project library used by the 3D Hull Engineering module consists of a collection of all necessary yard standards for cut outs, profile end shapes, stiffener types, brackets, holes and other structural entities. Besides the yard related standards, software settings and project specific parameters are also stored and maintained in the project library.
