WESTMINSTER, CO, Nov 18, 2008 – TransMagic Inc., a leading developer of precise 3D multi-CAD/CAM data exchange software, today announced JT format support and joining the JT Open Program. TransMagic products offer robust visualization of JT files and full “read” and “write” support for exchanging JT files between any 3D CAD/CAM/CAE applications.

TransMagic's unique combination of features, CAD file translation, geometry repair, collaboration and visualization, alleviate most CAD incompatibility challenges facing the manufacturing industry.

"I needed to translate files from JT to IGES," said David Watkins, an analyst at justFEA. "TransMagic and the JT translator zipped through 75 JT files in about 3 hours. The largest files only took 2-3 minutes to translate and the resulting IGES surface files processed accurately on VPG, an FE model builder."

With TransMagic, JT files can be re-used for design, machining, analysis, simulation or any other 3D application. Using TransMagic to repurpose JT files can facilitate enterprise-wide collaboration throughout a product's lifecycle.

"We're happy to provide JT as an additional option for our customers," said Todd Reade, President of TransMagic. "TransMagic continues to raise the bar by offering real solutions that enable companies to get their products to market faster."

"TransMagic's support for JT and its participation as a member of the JT Open Program further solidifies JT as the common 3D language of PLM and provides further evidence of Siemens PLM Software's industry-leading open business model," said Rich Ramsey, vice president of Partner and Component Marketing, Siemens PLM Software. "TransMagic and its products are a welcome addition to the continually growing suite of applications supporting the JT format."

TransMagic data exchange software products dramatically reduce the costs of repurposing CAD designs in manufacturing applications. Visit www.transmagic.com for a free trial.
