How FRAMES can save you time
Intuitive and easy design of aluminium frame structures

Export & import to your CAD-Software
Increase efficiency by importing into your CAD-Software. Your design can be exported as an intermediate file and imported into your CAD-Assembly to create your final design. Supported formats: STEP, Parasolid, DXF
BOM generation with instant quote & order NEW
Prepare your order effortlessly, without errors. The BOM is created automatically, preventing mistakes in entering model numbers or quantities. Quotes can be obtained instantly, and orders can be made through the software because of the link with the MISUMI Online Shop.
Calculate mass and strength of your construction
Useful calculation tools are available to make designing easy. Easily calculate the total mass of your construction as well as the frame strength of the aluminium profiles to check the required stability and, if necessary, install reinforcements.
Standard frame parts
Standard settings for e.g. frame connectors, rollers, adjustable feet and covers, can help with standardisation to avoid an excessive variety of components in a system.
Library with basic models included
Many basic models are already included and only need to be adapted to your needs with minor adjustments. This allows you to focus on more complex tasks.
Highly precise aluminium extrusions
Enjoy the large variety of highly precise aluminium extrusions and accessories. FRAMES contains most of our assortment of products just like you can find in our E-catalogue
Create own design templates
Create your own design templates to save even more time if you use them frequently. This means that housing or other frame structures can be created quickly after small changes in the design software.
