ITI TranscenData Releases CADIQ 6.1 for CAD Validation
 MILFORD,
OH, Dec 1, 2009 – ITI TranscenData announced today the release of CADIQ 6.1,
the latest edition of its leading CAD model validation application that
identifies model-based design issues that adversely impact downstream
processes, such as tooling, simulation and manufacturing.
Engineers tasked with long-term data retention and archival initiatives
use CADIQ to certify translations and conversions for 3D CAD models prior to
archival, through geometry and semantics-based validation. CADIQ
validates 3D models, assemblies, corresponding features and product
manufacturing information (i.e. 3D PMI, GD&T, FT&A) against the source data,
and provides automated predictive diagnostics. These diagnostics are
used to identify, forecast and troubleshoot legacy conversion issues.
CADIQ is packaged for use in desktop or server environments, is easily
integrated into design release and check-in and check-out processes of PLM
workflows, and can be embedded in interoperability automations solutions.
The release of CADIQ 6.1 offers many new
developments, such as:
- Direct Assembly Model Comparison - No flattening required for CATIA
V5, NX, Pro/ENGINEER, SolidWorks, Parasolid and STEP component placement
and properties comparison
- Part Comparison Diagnostics - Feature parameter diagnostic for model
revisions in the same CAD system
- 3D PMI Comparison Diagnostics - STEP “PMI as Polyline” only for
model revisions in the same CAD system
- CATIA V4 CAD File Interface - For indirect V4 model analysis, No
CATIA V4 installation/license prerequisite on Windows and UNIX platforms
- STEP Validation Property Quality Diagnostics
- Improved Batch Analysis and Statistics
"The latest enhancements in CADIQ 6.1 set it apart from all other CAD
validation tools on the market," said Doug Cheney, CADIQ Product Manager.
“Most tools only verify design reuse for design – enforcing modeling
conventions. CADIQ goes a step further, validating MBD models for downstream
reuse – at design release and through any format conversion in the
lifecycle. When quality issues are identified, CADIQ can document
engineering change revisions in a 3D PDF file for easy communication,
collaboration, and markup.”
Availability
The new product release is available immediately worldwide and current
CADIQ customers can easily upgrade to version 6.1.
