SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Nov 19, 2008 - Lattice Technology, developers of digital manufacturing applications using the XVL format, today announced that it has released 3 packages of its XVL software targeted precisely at digital manufacturing functions.

The packages focus on streamlining the way engineers in manufacturing industries can perform digital mockup, process documentation and animation, create interactive 3D parts lists and convincing illustrations direct from 3D data without requiring anybody to move from their existing 3D CAD, ERP or PLM platform. The three packages combine existing XVL software tools and deliver immediate savings through discounts on package pricing over separate product list prices.

Users of the XVL solutions report productivity improvements such as a 60% decrease in lead time for product development, and more than a 90% reduction in modification rates on the design data. Access, sharing, simulation and animation of huge assemblies becomes easy with the highly accurate XVL lightweight format. And the creation of manufacturing documentation such as process instructions, assembly animations and illustrations for print and web are a simple part of the process.

The three new packages are:

Digital Mockup Package

Rapidly create very accurate digital mockups of product designs direct from your 3D data, while being able to validate, review, check, animate and simulate the assembly in XVL Studio. Benefit from automated reporting of interferences and clearances on Excel spreadsheets and automated disassembly/assembly functions for your design. Add in a 3D CAD Converter of your choice, and the first year maintenance covered, with the Lattice Technology Digital Mockup package. Best of all, receive up to 20% off list prices of the software solutions.

Process Documentation & 3D Parts List Package

The Lattice Technology Process Animation and Parts List bundle saves you time and money, while building productivity and efficiency into your process. This bundle delivers XVL Studio Standard, a plug-in XVL Converter of your choice, and Lattice3D Reporter. These tools bring streamlined functionality for engineers to rapidly animate and simulate moving 3D parts on a design, edit an assembly structure and automatically define steps for production. Transfer your 3D data and documentation into interactive 3D parts list in Excel spreadsheets and share interactive 3D BOMs with your team members, departments and suppliers. Receive up to 14% in discounted savings for the package deal.

Illustration Package

Save money and time by creating realistic, stunning 2D illustrations directly from your 3D data with Lattice Technology’s Illustration bundle. The Illustration bundle delivers XVL Studio Basic, a choice of one plug-in converter and the Illustration upgrade for XVL Studio. This package allows you to seamlessly convert your 3D CAD data into XVL Studio and rapidly and efficiently create and save 2D illustrations in .CSV, EPS and more. 10% savings available for package pricing.

“XVL digital manufacturing solutions can revolutionize the way you approach digital manufacturing, digital mockup, process documentation or digital assembly processes within your operation,” commented Bill Barnes, GM, Lattice Technology. “XVL supports all major 3D CAD formats and allows a manufacturer to continue to design, engineer and manufacture on their chosen platform. However, the addition of XVL into the process means that barriers to rapid, accurate digital mockup, simulation, design review and assembly are removed.”

Customers can benefit from as much as a 20% discount on Lattice Technology’s packages for illustration, process documentation & 3D Part lists, and digital mockup, simply by signing up for a demonstration.
