IronCAD has a partnership with KeyShot, a rendering program that creates beautiful images using an easy-to-use tool and a Real-time rendering scene to show you a preview of your pictures and animations. IronCAD can directly export over to KeyShot using the buttons located in the add-ins section.

The "Render in KeyShot" button will bring up a fresh KeyShot scene file, and will add your parts into it automatically. The "Export to KeyShot" button will create and save a KeyShot file for you automatically, with the parts and textures taken from IronCAD.  The "Update KeyShot" button allows you to send new model geometry to the KeyShot scene file with only a single click. IronCAD also offers a few options to make it easier to organize your materials and textures for the rendering by having the option to link matching materials in IronCAD so that KeyShot will apply all changes to that material to the corresponding parts. This option allows users to organize their matching materials in IronCAD to easily link and create the look and feel for their parts in KeyShot. IronCAD also offers an option that will allow you to dictate which direction should be upwards for your model inside the KeyShot scene. You can then use the vast array of tools available in KeyShot to create renderings perfect to your needs.

KeyShot offers a wide range of preset utilities that can make your part look like anything you want. A library of textures that come with advanced options for colors and roughness will allow you to choose and edit your materials to create designs. KeyShot's environment can be customized to change the lighting, background, and other settings that will change your renderings' look and feel. Users can also choose to edit the lighting and camera location so you can snap back to the shop you want to capture with a couple of clicks. KeyShot also allows users to change their renderings' scale and resolution to spend the right amount of time on their work rendering their projects as necessary.
