Subassembly Studio / Intellassembly
(Patent Pending)
 
How many times have you found that you needed a subassembly that wasn't included in the stock AutoCAD Civil 3D subassembly library? Until now, the only available solutions involved convoluted workarounds using generic link subassemblies or hiring a developer to create a custom subassembly. Custom development can be expensive and time consuming, and in the meantime production is stalled.
 
Well, the rules of the game have changed. With Cad Artisans Subassembly Studio, you can now quickly and easily create an unlimited number of custom parametric subassemblies without any programming whatsoever! In mere minutes, you can now replicate what would have taken a developer days to create, allowing you to remain fully productive while creating (and modifying) custom subassemblies as and when needed.
 
In the 2011 release of Subassembly Studio, we have introduced our latest product called Intellassembly as part of the new Ultimate Edition. Intellassembly allows you to construct intelligent subassemblies that effectively serve as half of an assembly where the actual cross section geometry is built dynamically as the corridor model is being built. The geometry is dependent on 2D and 3D linear cad elements, such as lines and polylines, that are associated with the corridor/baseline and can be quickly and easily created in plan view (targets can also be alignments, feature lines, survey figures, etc.). Because the cross section geometry is built dynamically for each station, multiple regions along a baseline (with each referencing different assemblies) are no longer necessary. With the included toolset, you are also able to "Regionate" your corridor, which inserts special stations at critical geometry points and at special 'override' stations, all of which are automatically controlled by your target geometry.
 
This can potentially reduce weeks of work to mere hours. Take for example a situation where you have a section of road with 50 driveways. This can easily amount to 400+ regions with at least 4 or 5 assemblies in a traditionally built corridor in Civil 3D. With Intellassembly, the very same road model may be constructed using only ONE REGION and ONE ASSEMBLY. Instead of spending weeks setting up hundreds of regions, you can simply draw the critical plan view components in 2D, associate them with the corridor and add any custom attribution you desire, and let Intellassembly build the corridor dynamically using predetermined logic.
 
Features
  • Build custom parametric subassemblies for use in AutoCAD Civil 3D using simple, intuitive COGO commands in a managed environment that will feel both familiar and natural for AutoCAD Civil 3D users
  • Subassemblies take only minutes to create, allowing you to create custom subassemblies at will and as needed while remaining fully productive
  • Exported subassemblies are self-licensing - distribute to as many machines as you need with no additional fees
  • Fully customize the input, output, and target parameters for the subassembly
  • Use conditional logic in the custom subassemblies to add intelligence
  • Create custom 'Conditional' subassemblies
  • Create and maintain catalogs consisting of an unlimited number of custom subassemblies
  • Create and deploy subassembly archive package files, including the custom tool catalog (ATC) file and all necessary libraries in a single command
  • Runs as a standalone application, allowing CAD managers to create and maintain custom subassembly catalogs without having to run AutoCAD Civil 3D on their machines
  • Use either automated deployment or a simple, straight-forward manual process for importing custom subassemblies into AutoCAD Civil 3D
  • Compatible with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2009, 2010, and 2011
  • Available in several editions to meet your specific needs, including Developer Editions
  • Optional subscription service includes product and compatibility updates, discounted technical support, plus access to free training videos and sample subassemblies
  • If you only need to create one or two basic custom subassemblies, as an alternative to purchasing the full product, you may instead download Subassembly Studio below, use the unlocked functionality in the Free Edition to construct your subassemblies, and we can generate the actual subassembly runtime files from your project files for you.
License Options
  • Free Edition: Includes the Subassembly Studio editor with limited functionality (no logical components, max. 5 subassemblies per catalog). You may create subassembly catalog project files, but you cannot export subassembly runtime files (which required to use your subassemblies in AutoCAD Civil 3D). We can generate these files for you using your project files.
  • Standard Edition: Includes the Subassembly Studio editor with basic functionality (including basic logical components; max. 15 subassemblies per catalog). With this version, you may create your own self-licensing redistributable subassembly runtime files.
  • Professional Edition: Includes the Subassembly Studio editor with full functionality. With this version, you may create your own self-licensing redistributable subassembly runtime files.
  • Ultimate Edition: Includes the Subassembly Studio editor with full functionality, plus Intellassembly. With this version, you may create your own self-licensing redistributable subassembly runtime files.
  • Driverless USB hardware locks (dongles) are available for all editions except the Free Edition
