Plasticity

Advanced geometry and fillet engine

Plasticity's advanced geometry and fillet engine is second to none, thanks to Parasolid's best-in-class algorithms. With Plasticity, you can create the absolute best fillets, booleans, and offsets, and change them whenever you want. Unlike other CAD programs, Plasticity doesn't hold back on advanced modeling tools - you have access to everything you need.

Frequently asked questions

If you have anything else you want to ask, reach out to us.

    • What does "node-locked" mean?

      Node-locked means that the license is tied to a specific computer. Often this means that you can only use the software on one computer at a time. However, with the Indie license you can use the software on up to two computers at the same time, and with the Studio license you can use the software on up to four computers at the same time. You can also transfer the license from one computer to another up to 8 times, in case you purchase new computers. Beyond 8 transfers, you can email us to request additional transfers.

    • What updates are included?

      All newly purchased licenses come with a 12 month "maintenance" period, which includes all version updates released during that period. Do note that each license and each platform may have differing features.

    • What about older licenses like the $99 Indie 1.0 license

      Users who bought a $99 "Indie 1.0" license before October 2023 only have access to "1.x" updates of Plasticity; that does not include version 2.0 (which, following industry standards, we have branded version 2024.1). Please click here for historical licensing terms

    • What does access to the beta get me?

      The pace of Plasticity's development is very fast. We're constantly adding new features and improving existing ones. The Studio license grants you access to the beta program for 12 months, where you can try out new features months before they are released. You can also provide feedback on the beta features, which helps us shape the direction of Plasticity.

    • Do you provide support?

      Plasticity customers get access to a private Discord community where you can ask questions and help others with their questions in return, but we don't offer first-party technical support directly. PLEASE NOTE: the Discord enforces a code-of-conduct to ensure polite and constructive technical discussions.

    • What operating systems does Plasticity run on?

      Plasticity is available for Mac OSX (12+), Windows (10+), and Linux (Ubuntu 22). NOTE: not all features are available on all platforms, unfortunately

    • What kind of computer hardware do I need?

      Plasticity is somewhat demanding on your computer’s hardware. It helps to have a modern computer with a fast CPU, GPU, and a significant amount of RAM. You can use the free trial to determine if Plasticity will run well on your computer.

    • What is Parasolid? What is Hoops Exchange?

      Parasolid is a geometry kernel, which is a software library that implements complex mathematical functions to perform operations such as booleans, fillets, and more. All CAD programs utilize a geometry kernel, and Parasolid is considered one of the best in the industry. It is used by leading CAD software such as SolidWorks, Siemens NX, Shapr3D, (and Plasticity!) for various applications, ranging from small-scale manufactured parts to large-scale aerospace components. HOOPS Exchange is a CAD format translation library that enables Plasticity to import and export a wide variety of CAD formats. Transferring data between different CAD programs can be challenging due to incompatibilities among geometry kernels. HOOPS Exchange is a premium translation product, regarded as one of the best in the industry. By incorporating Parasolid HOOPS Exchange, Plasticity provides users with access to some of the most advanced CAD technology available at an incredibly competitive price.

    • What is xNURBS

      xNURBS is software library that implements a 'variational surfacing' technology to produce high-quality surfaces given a set of boundary and interior constraints. It is typically used for professional surfacing workflows and is normally available as a $400 add-on to Rhino and SolidWorks. However, with Plasticity, it is included with the purchase of a Studio license. It is only available on Windows and Mac.

    • Do you offer academic licenses or other kinds of discounts?

      We do offer academic licenses. Please email us at contact@plasticity.xyz

    • If I buy an Indie license now, can I upgrade to Studio later?

      Yes, you can upgrade at any time, including as part of the renewal process.
