Spatial 3D InterOp Supports Capvidia FormatWorks 2009 Pro
BROOMFIELD,
CO, Mar 31, 2009 - Spatial Corp., a leading provider of 3D development
components for engineering and manufacturing software, delivers PMI data
exchange technology for Capvidia’s latest product release, FormatWorks 2009
Professional. FormatWorks 2009 Professional employs Spatial’s 3D InterOp with
Manufacturing Option to provide its automotive and aerospace manufacturing
customers with high-quality CAD translation of geometry and Product
Manufacturing Information (PMI) from CATIA V5, Pro/ENGINEER, and UG-NX to
SolidWorks.
The inclusion and exchange of PMI with 3D CAD models has become
increasingly important among automotive and aerospace companies as a way to
reduce costs and improve product quality throughout the supply chain. With
leading manufacturing industries moving toward a single model-based
definition, where all design and manufacturing information is embedded in
the 3D CAD file, Spatial has taken a leading role in supporting semantic PMI
exchange from major industry CAD systems.
“By having access to PMI within the 3D model file, our customers are able to
improve their processes and reduce reliance on 2D drawings,” stated Lyle
Fischer, Capvidia Technical Marketing Director. “When we implemented PMI within
FormatWorks, we chose to partner with Spatial, an industry leader in 3D software
components. Spatial’s 3D InterOp with Manufacturing Option provides all
necessary data from each of the major CAD formats. FormatWorks completes the
exchange.”
Capvidia’s FormatWorks 2009 Professional supports PMI data stored in 3D CAD
models in the following native formats: CATIA V5, Pro/ENGINEER, and UG-NX. The
PMI information is available for SolidWorks users working with native CAD data.
Spatial 3D InterOp for CAD translation includes:
- High-quality 3D Data Exchange
- PMI Translation for Major Industry CAD systems
- Extensible Platform for any 3D Application
“Spatial 3D InterOp components are easily integrated into new or existing
applications, enabling companies like Capvidia to respond quickly to end-user
demands,” commented Ray Bagley, Spatial’s Director of Product Planning and
Management. “By providing semantic PMI translation from the broadest range of
CAD formats to complement our industry-leading B-rep translators, Spatial is
enabling customers to deliver real value and increased productivity to the
manufacturing supply chain.”
