LIBEREC, Czech Republic, Dec 2, 2025 – VariCAD announces the release of a new version of its flagship product, VariCAD 2026-1.0.
Among new features, there is mainly a capability to load files from ACIS native formats and STL files. There are also some changes in 3D modeling, working with solid attributes (for Viewer version) and exports into STL. Loading and viewing data from STL and ACIS is obviously available for both full version and a Viewer. Changes made for this version allows you to load and work with objects containing a large amount of patches (set of single isolated triangles), like data prepared into STEP from various 3D scanners. Files from STL can be loaded and used as solids. For large STL data there may be some limits, if you want to use them as regular 3D objects.
For export into STL, you can set higher density and from commands “cfg” or “teststl”, you can easily zoom, rotate or pan the view.
