Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division, and IMSI/Design LLC, a provider of retail CAD products, have announced that D-Cubed 2D Dimensional Constraint Manager (2D DCM) software has been integrated and released in IMSI/Design’s DoubleCAD XT Pro application.

DoubleCAD XT PRO is IMSI/Design’s recently released application for mechanical and architectural drafting and detailing. The D-Cubed 2D DCM provides users with the ability to control their drawings using driving dimensions—i.e. dimensions with values that can be changed to drive modifications in a sketch or assembly—and other geometric constraints. This enables drawings to be produced quicker and more accurately with changes easily propagated across different elements of a drawing, according to the companies.

“With DoubleCAD XT PRO we have combined a comprehensive range of drafting and detailing functionality with the powerful capabilities of the industry’s number one constraint solver,” said Bob Mayer, chief operating officer at IMSI/Design. “IMSI/Design is focused on delivering value and enhanced workflow productivity to our customers and we believe the inclusion of the 2D DCM technology in DoubleCAD clearly solidifies this position. DoubleCAD XT PRO is the third IMSI/Design application into which we’ve integrated the D-Cubed 2D DCM, demonstrating our confidence not only in the technological superiority of this high quality component, but also in the excellent service offered by Siemens PLM Software.”
