KeyShot HD

Buy KeyShot 7 HD from CAD Software Direct - official UK reseller. 

KeyShot HD is a cost-effective, powerful standalone renderer. It's one of the most straight-forward 3D rendering applications available, with a simple and intuitive interface that works just as well on Mac as Windows. High quality results can be achieved very quickly and Keyshot lends itself well to a wide range of industries. Our KeyShot customers include product and industrial designers, vehicle design companies, jewellers and architects - amongst many others.

Keyshot is a standalone renderer, and does not run as a hosted plugin on a parent 3D modelling app. Therefore, an investment in Keyshot can be very economical over time - especially if 3D modelling workflow changes, or different team members or suppliers produce 3D work in different applications. In addition to being able to process almost any kind of 3D file, Luxion Keyshot comes with free plugins for:

• PTC Creo
• Pro/Engineer
• Rhinoceros
• SolidWorks
• SketchUp/SketchUp Pro
• 3ds Max
• Cinema 4D
• Fusion 360
• Maya

The principle version differences and module options are outlined below. If you would like any information at all on the product, advice or access to a full featured demo, please do contact us.
