T-Splines for consumer products Print E-mail

Model shapes of any complexity as a single smooth, fluid water-tight surface.

In an increasingly global marketplace, aesthetically pleasing designs stand out from the crowd. T-Splines facilitates the creation of well-contoured designs. By allowing designers to work with models naturally as malleable objects rather than as a collection of rigid joined sections, T-Splines offers an improved way to design freeform consumer products.

As a person with 25 years of 'pushing curves and NURBS', I am truly impressed, as well as technically awed by your T-Spline tools. - Dan Falvey, Tools4Design

Less time

T-Splines helps decrease product design time. When you are designing organic, fluid objects, T-Splines simplifies your design process by letting you push and pull on your model in a freeform way.

Fewer costs

T-Splines helps independent designers cut costs and compete with discount design agencies. As the design world becomes increasingly global, competition has driven down margins. T-Splines allows designers to explore more iterations in less time, allowing them to bid competitively and still keep strong margins because time spent modeling decreases with T-Splines when creating organic designs.

New workflows

T-Splines speeds up development time and reduces costs by introducing new workflows. T-Splines introduces box modeling workflows into Rhino's precision environment. These workflows, enjoyed for their rapid concept generation in the entertainment industry for digital content creation, bring the same speed benefit to industrial design. Always in the past, models created using this method were incompatible for manufacturing. However, for the first time, T-Splines makes this method available in a NURBS-compatible, production quality way.

I decided to use T-Splines for its ease when working with harmonic surfaces.

I made this entirely using T-Splines, a simple cage model and then point editing. I think T-Splines is a very creative tool and a perfect complement to Rhino. www.designbyjari.com Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Brian James :: http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/McNeel/BrianJames.html Thomas Parel :: http://pareldesign.blogspot.com/ Joaquin Laborda :: Part of shoe sole. In this model, T-Splines let me reach the global shape as fast as in any Sub-D modeler, then with the complement of Rhino's UDT tools I could complete the model with all the details I needed. www.trumdesign.com.ar Brian James :: http://en.wiki.mcneel.com/default.aspx/McNeel/BrianJames.html Wielkoslaw Staniszewski :: wielek13.3dm3.com Wielkoslaw Staniszewski :: wielek13.3dm3.com Joaquin Laborda :: The snail was part of a modeling challenge, where I succeeded in building the shape, and the model was suitable for SolidWorks shelling. www.trumdesign.com.ar Juan Santocono :: Matteo Pini :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Cafer :: Bjorn Syse :: Juan Santocono :: Juan Santocono :: Phil Renato :: Flume Table Setting.
