DENVER, CO, Oct 10, 2023 – Lattice Technology, a leader in enabling manufacturing companies to extend the use of the 3D CAD data for Digital Transformation, announces significant enhancements to its XVL Content Manager (XCM) and XVL Web3D Manager (XWM) products. These improvements empower organizations with cutting-edge capabilities for streamlining the sharing and streaming of 3D CAD data to stakeholders downstream from product design.
XVL Content Manager (XCM)
XVL Content Manager is the cornerstone for secure vaulting and version control of 3D models, product data, and related documentation. It distinguishes itself from traditional Product Data Management (PDM) systems by placing the 3D Virtual Product Model at its core, offering a visual and intuitive approach to navigating product information.
Key benefits of XVL Content Manager include:
- Version Control: XCM ensures that users downstream from design access the most up-to-date information, establishing a single source of truth.
- Integration: Seamlessly integrates with other systems such as PLM, ERP, and MES, enhancing the value and benefits of existing infrastructure.
- Up-to-date: Advanced auto-update capabilities keep XCM content synchronized with underlying 3D data, ensuring users can always access the latest information.
- Sharing: XCM manages data and utilizes XVL Web Manager for secure streaming and sharing of 3D data.
XVL Web3D Manager (XWM)
XVL Web3D Manager is a comprehensive solution for publishing and delivering interactive 3D content. Optimized to handle large 3D models, XVL Web3D Manager offers rapid and secure viewing of model-based content via modern web browsers without plug-ins. It provides high-performance 3D viewing with built-in authentication and authorization, ensuring content delivery to the right individuals. XWM extends beyond visuals and supports structured Bill of Materials, work instructions, parts lists, 3D Snapshots, and more.
