One connected drawing-to-CAD workflow

  1. 01

    Bring your 2D source

    Start with a supported drawing or scan in Voluminate's existing reconstruction workflow.

  2. 02

    Authorize your Onshape account

    Sign in to Voluminate, then connect with Onshape authorization. Your account stays in control of the connection.

  3. 03

    Open the reconstructed part

    For enabled accounts, connected delivery handles native candidates or STEP import without a manual download and re-upload.

Native where it matters. Clear about the deliverable.

AI-built feature tree

Eligible AI CAD candidates contain native Onshape features. Inspect and refine the result directly in your browser-based CAD workspace.

STEP B-Rep delivery

Other candidates arrive as editable solid geometry through the connected import path. Direct modeling is possible; original feature history is not included.

Engineer Built

Choose a scoped engineering rebuild for a full parametric feature tree and dimensionally verified native CAD deliverable.

Keep modeling and collaboration in Onshape while Voluminate prepares the drawing-based geometry. Refine it with the CAD tools your team already uses.

Onshape integration questions

Is this an active integration or a concept pilot?

The Onshape account connection and model-delivery workflow are implemented. Early Access is currently restricted to enabled admin/test accounts; contact us to discuss access. Broader Onshape App Store distribution is in progress.

Do I sign in to Voluminate with my Onshape account?

First sign in to Voluminate, then authorize the connection using your Onshape account. This is an Onshape account connection, not a separate Onshape-only login to Voluminate.

Can AI create an Onshape feature tree?

Yes, eligible AI CAD candidates can include an AI-built native Onshape feature tree. Other candidates use STEP B-Rep geometry; a STEP import does not create the original parametric construction history.

How do parts move into my Onshape workspace?

For an enabled connected account, use the existing Open in my Onshape workflow on an available candidate. The service handles native document delivery or STEP import, so you do not need to download and re-upload the model manually.

Can I start from a PDF, scan, DWG or DXF?

Supported 2D sources can enter Voluminate's existing pre-check and reconstruction workflow. DWG and DXF must be uploaded individually. Onshape delivery depends on candidate availability and your account's Early Access eligibility.

When should I choose Engineer Built?

Choose Engineer Built when you need a scoped, dimensionally verified parametric rebuild with a complete feature tree. Agree the native format, critical dimensions and design requirements with the engineering team.

Is Voluminate publicly listed in the Onshape App Store?

This page does not claim a public Onshape App Store listing. Broader distribution is in progress; access remains controlled during Early Access.
