Welcome to P1 CAD Ltd; the official UK reseller of IronCAD 3D CAD and 2D drafting software. Whether you are interested in moving into 3D CAD or are looking to update your existing 3D CAD software, for the very first time in the UK we are here to offer you full support with IronCAD; from product demonstrations to help with setting up or training you and your staff to use IronCAD efficiently. The combination of innovative technology and its ease of use have helped it to become the most productive creative design environment available.

IronCAD is the awarding winning tool for realising design across the industries of architecture, engineering, product, furniture, aerospace, automotive, medical and marine design. In its brief history, IronCAD has rapidly built a reputation for superlative design, modelling, and engineering functionality among its customers and critics in the CAD industry. Since its first release in 1998, and has won the NDES Best of Show, the Archimedes CAD and M/Tech Show Competition, the CADENCE Magazine Editor's Choice Award, the Computer Graphics World Innovation Award, and the NASA Tech Briefs Product of the Month Award-leaving no doubt that IronCAD is a revolutionary program for machine and conceptual design. it has already seen high sales success in China, USA, Europe and North America. We believe that customers deserve the same advantages in productivity and price within the UK!

"People have to realize that the professionalism of the IRONCAD program and the ease of use have allowed us to establish relationships with the top manufacturers in the automotive industry."

Leanders Bros Drag Racing by Ulf Leanders, Drag Racing Team

"There is a considerable amount of secrecy about some areas of the cars development right now – IronCAD enables us to develop, design, detail and manufacture completely in-house, therefore eliminating the need to send data outside which could effectively compromise our competitive advantage."

Skyline Exhibition Design by Maureen M. Olstad

"The professional team from IronCAD has been a partner that listens and provides every level of support to ensure our success. Skyline is looking forward to utilizing new tools such as INOVATE to extend our reach to our customers, thereby providing a seamless information flow from exhibit concept directly to the show floor."

"IRONCAD straddles a unique position in the CAD world. It has the power and functionality to attract the attention of any serious designer, engineer, or manufacturer. It facilitates file transfers, it does things that more expensive systems do, and it can serve as a complement to your PLM system."

"In the world of 3D modeling, as in other fields, there seems to be many camps. The fully parametric camp cannot feel confident unless everything is quantified with a number or a parameter. The direct modeling camp really doesn't care about the numbers as long as the form is right. And even within these camps, there are distinctions. People in the parametric camp pair off based on modeling kernel. Some like Parasolid, and others go for ACIS. Each camp takes a slightly different approach to what they do, and each is adamant in their distinction. So what's a software developer to do to win customers over to its ranks? Well, it could try what IronCAD is trying — do it all!"

"Unhindered by the traditional history tree, it has been likened to modelling in clay. A wide variety of 3D shapes are dragged and dropped into a scene from the Catalog browser, where they can be manipulated using the standard grab handles, or rotated into position using IronCAD's unique Triball device. The Catalog Browser also includes holes, pyramids, twists and a partial torus, and variable driven shape under the Advanced Shapes tab, spirals and bolt patterns etc., and a further tab for Sheet Metal shapes - sufficient, when used in combination, to produce complex assemblies."

"We design our parts using IronCAD and test them on the computer before ever reaching production."
