Innovative

TurboCAD^® Furniture Maker supports streamlined production by optimizing cuts, minimizing material waste, and simplifying the ordering of parts for smooth furniture manufacturing.

This plug-in empowers users to bring their design visions to life with professional-grade tools and functionality.

Get Started Right Away

Jumpstart your design journey with step-by-step audio/video tutorials, a practical getting started guide, and inspirational examples. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned designer, these resources simplify learning and spark creativity.

Integration & Performance

TurboCAD^© Furniture Maker supports full 62-bit architecture, ensuring robust performance for large-scale projects. The software includes a BXF2 Importer, enabling direct import of cabinets designed in BLUM Cabinet Configurator for further customization within TurboCAD^©. This integration ensures designers can refine Blum cabinet designs with parametric adjustments, material swaps, and production optimizations.

Parametric Design & Material Mastery

Modify hundreds of pre-drawn furniture and cabinet symbols—including sinks, appliances, and TurboCAD^© parametric objects—to fit your needs. Resize, reconfigure materials, or adjust configurations effortlessly, and save custom symbols to your library.

Edit existing parametric furniture sets or create new ones with Furniture Parametrization, linking elements to maintain structural relationships during material or thickness changes. The Elements window displays material thickness alongside names for instant clarity, while search functionality allows filtering materials by both ID and name. Faster loading and filtering of materials reduces downtime, letting users focus on design creativity.

Parametric Design & Material Mastery

Advanced Composition Tools

Design with precision using vector-based composition tools. Align cabinets to front edges for mixed-depth layouts, adjust spacing across X/Y/Z axes, and reuse vectors with the New Series function to streamline upper and lower cabinet rows. Filter symbol libraries during composition, edit visible content of inserted sets, and simplify preview assignments for faster workflows.

Advanced Composition Tools

Production-Ready Tools

Craft bespoke designs using layered templates for doors, drawers, shelves, and hardware. Add functional details like one-click sink holes in worktops with the Creation of Working Holes tool, ensuring accuracy for plumbing or electrical integrations.

Disassemble Cabinet to Plane instantly converts 3D cabinet symbols into 2D cut-ready plans with a single button click.

Production-Ready Tools

For CNC workflows, Project Documentation Generation exports 2D designs to DXF format directly from TurboCAD^© Furniture Maker’s project templates, ensuring precision for machining.

Design Phase Tab

Dimension entire rooms—including windows, doors, and utilities—with a single click. The simplified IS Dimension tool lets you define work planes by touching walls with an arrow, eliminating tedious 3-point inputs.

Floor and Ceiling Design Flexibility

Generate floors and ceilings automatically for rapid layouts or switch to manual mode for intricate customization, adapting to any architectural style.

Styles & Edge Control

Styles empower users to define rules for uniform changes to materials, edges, sizes, and parameters across designs. 

Styles & Edge Control

Edge Coloring enhances visualization during optimization, allowing users to assign distinct colors to edges for easier layer management in complex, multi-layered rooms.

Design Phase Tab

Material and Environment Mastery

Individual Material Selection provides granular control by mapping TurboCAD^© Furniture Maker materials to specific design layers, ensuring aesthetic and functional precision. 

Material and Environment Mastery

Environment Functionality, powered by RedSDK, offers advanced tools to manipulate lighting, shadows, reflections, and material textures, creating lifelike renders for client presentations.

Design Phase Tab

2D/3D Visualization and Export

Switch seamlessly between 2D schematics and 3D views. Generate perspective visuals with camera tools, and export JPGs directly from the active view with customizable settings for client presentations or DAEX CUT integration.

2D/3D Visualization and Export

DAEX CUT Module

Maximize material efficiency with Optimization All, which organizes cutting plans into material-specific bookmarks. Safeguard progress with time-stamped backups and manage materials using well-arranged assortments (lengths, squares, pieces) imported/exported via CSV. Track revisions effortlessly with the Last Edited Order column.

DAEX CUT Module

Exclude components from optimization via the Blocking Parts feature, ensuring critical elements remain unchanged. Add notes to parts and cabinets during DAEX CUT transfers and utilize formatted internal notes in the Preparation of Production tab for team collaboration. Time-stamped backups safeguard against data loss.

Business and Order Management

Streamline operations with tools for generating bills of materials (BOM), supplier orders, and client reports. Manage pricing, VAT, and inventory using editable print sets, and export data to XLS/CSV for ERP integration.

Why Choose TurboCAD^© Furniture Maker?

• End-to-End Workflow: From parametric design to production-ready cut plans.
• Precision and Speed: 62-bit power, vector-based alignment, and one-click tools reduce manual work.
• Business Agility: Track orders, optimize materials, and manage suppliers seamlessly.

Shaped Resize

Introducing the Shaped Resize feature, a precision tool designed to maintain the integrity of chamfered or rounded edges when resizing components. By enabling this option in the Elements tab, users can adjust dimensions of specialized shapes—such as beveled corners or curved edges—without distorting their original geometry. This ensures consistent proportions and design accuracy, ideal for intricate models or detailed architectural elements.
