Lattice Upgraded 3D CAD Converters Support 64 Bit
Allows use of XVL
SAN
FRANCISCO, CA, Aug 19, 2008 - Lattice Technology Inc., developers of digital
manufacturing applications using the XVL format today announced a series of
upgrades to its 3D CAD Conversion tools. As a result of these upgrades, XVL
now supports data from the most current 3D CAD tools, including 64-bit CAD
platforms.
Lattice Technology's XVL format allows for very accurate, very compressed
3D CAD data to be used by others, who don't have a CAD platform, but who are
integrated within a digital manufacturing workflow. Lattice Technology's XVL
Converters use leading edge conversion technologies to enable the
translation of 3D CAD data from every major 3D CAD format. The Converters
are available as plug-ins into a CAD seat, or as Servers that work within a
manufacturing IT system or enterprise workflow. Recent upgrades to these
converters include support for:
- Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4
- Autodesk Inventor 2009, in both Plug-in and Server versions
- 64-bit versions of NX
- 64-bit versions of SolidWorks.
The converters already support current and older versions of CATIA,
Pro/ENGINEER, I-DEAS, CoCreate, Autodesk Mechanical Desktop, SolidWorks, NX,
Solid Edge and many neutral 3D CAD file formats.
In addition, the Converters already support 64-bit versions of CATIA and
Pro/ENGINEER.
"As XVL becomes more deeply integrated into digital manufacturing
processes, so we respond with very advanced support of current 3D CAD
formats to enable our customers to easily simulate, validate and animate the
designs," said Bill Barnes, GM, Lattice Technology Inc. "Our converters use
the industry’s best translation technologies and allow massive 3D data to be
compressed, very accurately, into files that are 1% or less of the original
size. This makes even the biggest assemblies easily manageable and usable."
Lattice's digital manufacturing applications leverage the highly accurate
and ultra-compressed XVL 3D format, enabling even the largest 3D designs to
be easily and quickly reviewed for accuracy, simulated, checked for
tolerances and clearances and reused in all areas of engineering, design,
sales, marketing, maintenance and customer support. Lattice's technologies
represent the new era in reliably using and accessing 3D data across the
enterprise in a digital manufacturing environment. They are used by
designers, production and manufacturing engineers, support staff and
illustrators worldwide.
