PCCTools for BricsCAD point-cloud workflows
Extend BricsCAD with efficient point-cloud cropping, editable crop boxes, precision sections and saved crop states. Shape scans with box, sphere, polygon, buffer and slice crops, then recall the exact view you need without exporting the cloud.
Create a transparent crop box from the cloud bounds, then drag face grips to resize it. The point-cloud crop updates as the box changes.
Use spherical, polygonal, rectangular, circular, buffer-corridor and slice crops for objects, irregular footprints, roads, pipes and plan slabs.
Cut floor-plan, ceiling, facade and elevation slabs with editable crop boxes, named section UCSs and step commands for moving through the cloud.
Create angled plane sections from three points, a 3D face or an automatically detected surface plane picked directly from the cloud.
Walk repeated perpendicular cuts along a line or polyline path, with forward and backward station stepping for roads, corridors and tunnels.
Save named crop states and sections, recall them later, rebuild section boxes and switch to the correct UCS from the manager dialogs.
Hide, show, isolate, lock and unlock clouds, zoom to cloud extents, cycle point-cloud styles, adjust transparency, level of detail, point size and boundary display for clouds attached in BricsCAD.
A single stray drag can move a referenced cloud and quietly break alignment across an entire drawing. PCCTools lets you lock clouds in place so they stay put while you work around them — no more re-registering scans after a slip of the mouse.
Selecting the right points in a dense cloud is normally fiddly and slow. Smart, zoom-aware selection tools grab exactly the region you mean — across millions of points — so you spend time cropping, not wrestling with the pointer.
Crops stay pixel-accurate whether you're framing a whole site or trimming a doorway. Define your boundary once and it holds true as you zoom in to verify detail — no drift, no re-doing the cut.
Save, name and recall crop and section states as you explore a scan. Jump back to a previous view instantly and keep an organised set of states for every deliverable — instead of re-cropping from scratch.
Polygonal and multi-boundary cropping handle irregular footprints, curved facades and overlapping structures cleanly — so even awkward sites come out tidy and ready for the next step in CAD.
A focused point-cloud workflow for BricsCAD with advanced crops, sections, visibility controls and reusable crop states.
Pick the single-plugin plan for this workflow, or step up to the full CADTools Suite for access to the whole toolkit.
Focused access to this plugin when you only need one workflow.
Best value when this plugin is the main tool in your production workflow.
Add the rest of the CADTools ecosystem when your projects span several workflows.
The most complete option for teams moving between point clouds, terrain, BIM and modelling work.
PCCTools v2 is the dedicated BricsCAD edition for 64-bit Windows. Check the installer requirements for the supported BricsCAD releases.
We track BricsCAD releases and publish compatibility updates for the dedicated BricsCAD edition. Active licences receive updates at no extra cost.
Every plan includes a 15-day free trial with the full feature set, no payment details required to start.
A single licence is for one seat. For multiple machines, floating access or volume deployment, contact us for network licensing options.
PCCTools applies point-cloud crop boundaries without deleting scan data. You can remove the last crop, uncrop everything, toggle crops on and off, or recall a named crop state.
Yes. The CADTools Suite includes PCCTools, DTMTools, 3DPTools and FPTools from €99 per month or €999 per year.
