CADfix's suite of translation and repair tools allows designers, analysts and engineers to exchange their CAD/CAM/CAE data quickly and easily, eliminating up to 90 percent of data rework. Our translation and repair solutions offer numerous advantages and support:
We designed the workflow within our translation and repair solutions to accommodate novice, occasional and experienced users, so translations and repairs requiring manual intervention can be completed with minimal effort:
The core benefit of our 3D translation and healing solutions, centers around processes which guides users effortlessly through the import, repair and export process, requiring minimal manual intervention. Many of our users like to keep it simple - model translation is as straightforward as choosing the file and a target system and letting our solution do the rest. However, with the vast array of automatic and interactive processing tools available, we enable the user to address almost every issue affecting CAD geometry, effective translation and downstream reuse, such as:
It is not just about translating and fixing. Clients can tailor our solutions to check product data quality (PDQ) using a comprehensive library of PDQ tests. Users can also specify the PDQ tests for assessment and set the controlling parameters and tolerances as needed. The completed test then guides the user through a list of potential resolutions to address the quality issues. This type of quality analysis automatically identifies entities in the model that fail to meet the requirements of the selected PDQ criteria and presents the results to the user both graphically and in a text report. Our quality analysis components offer customization for in-house policies and/or international PDQ standards such as SASIG, VDA and JAMA.
With an extensive API that allows users to program their CAD simplification process, CADfix has always focused on automating the process of repairing and simplifying CAD data. However, scripting required users to become familiar with APIs and CADfix programming language.
CAD Interop provides online CAD translation services to meet the infrequent translation needs some companies may have that make a full onsite translation solution cost prohibitive. If your translation needs are 3 or fewer files per month then CAD Interop's translation service may be the right solution for you.
