Turn your TurboCAD models into spatial solutions, in minutes, with JigSpace

Discover how Jigs integrate TurboCAD CAD models into powerful spatial solutions for sales, training, and communication.

How JigSpace works

TurboCAD is CAD software used by designers and engineers for architectural and mechanical drafting. JigSpace easily converts TurboCAD models into interactive 3D presentations and immersive augmented reality experiences. We call them 'Jigs'. Jigs make the hard to explain, hard to forget. From launching a new product at a trade show or training your team on a new assembly process.

Frequently asked questions about using TurboCAD files in 3D presentations and augmented reality

What data is imported into JigSpace from my TurboCAD assemblies?

When you integrate your TurboCAD files with JigSpace we import and convert the parametric data to meshes which are appropriate for real-time rendering, as well as import mesh size and scale properties, part names, RGB colors, mesh origin or pivot points and the assembly hierarchy. Learn more about data imported from 3D models here.

What file formats are supported that can be exported from TurboCAD?

JigSpace supports the standard STEP neutral formats for parametric CAD, as well as FBX, OBJ, and STL files. Due to its reliability for data interchange and optimization in parametric files, we recommend exporting assemblies to STEP file wherever possible.

How safe is my TurboCAD CAD data when I import it to JigSpace?

JigSpace prioritizes data security with enterprise-grade measures, SOC 2 compliance, and features like role-based access controls and secure sharing, ensuring intellectual property contained in your TurboCAD files are protected. Learn more about JigSpace security features.

Can I save my TurboCAD files in the JigSpace library for my team to use?

Yes! You can save your converted CAD files from TurboCAD to your own team object library in JigSpace to re-use across multiple projects, save time, and ensure your team uses the right assets every time.
