Construct
Design parts in 3D with signed distance fields.
Install on your desktop computer.
Lets you design solid parts in 3D, from simple shapes to complex fields, and export them for 3D printing and for other programs. See how fields are shown.
Highlights
Solid by design
Every shape is a signed distance field, so it is always closed.
Live preview
See each change at once in the viewport.
Export
Write meshes for 3D printing and for other programs.
Jobs on many machines
Send heavy work to other computers and follow it.
Contains: Comms, Pairing, OPAL, Batch, Diagnostic reports
