AutoVue 18 Delivers Digital Mockup
Cimmetry's upcoming release provides native MCAD/ECAD Digital Mockup
capabilities.
July 7 2004 - Cimmetry Systems, the global leader in Visualization and
Collaboration solutions for the A/E/C, Engineering, Manufacturing and
Electronics markets, today announced that the upcoming AutoVue 18 includes
digital mockup capabilities. With AutoVue 18, users get all the benefits of
traditional MCAD/EDA Viewing and Collaboration tools with the power of digital
mockup in one easy-to-use application. AutoVue 18 will be released this month.
Digital Mockup (DMU)
Virtual prototyping using AutoVue's Digital Mockup, delivers real engineering
solutions from the safety of a virtual environment. With AutoVue's DMU tools,
designers can simulate models and assemblies on-the-fly and project real-world
manufacturability without the expense and time associated with conventional
physical prototypes. Features include:
- The ability to combine MCAD parts and assemblies of different formats
including: CATIA, Pro/E, UG, SolidWorks, Inventor, JT, Solid Edge and more...
- The ability to combine native mechanical and electronics files
- Precise part alignment by easily defining constraints
- Interference and clearance checking
- Save all mockup and state information
- 3D BOM (Bill of Materials)
- User-defined coordinate systems
"Cimmetry was first to market in providing the ability to view and collaborate
on both native mechanical and electronics product data regardless of format from
a single application," said Pam Petropoulos, Marketing Manager at Cimmetry
Systems. "Now, with AutoVue 18, we break new ground by combining MCAD and ECAD
designs into a comprehensive digital mockup, all the while retaining the
embedded intelligence and attribute data of the original files."
AutoVue 18 adds support for many new formats. All new features and formats are
available in both the desktop and client-server editions of AutoVue and
integrate seamlessly with PLM, ERP, EDM or Document Management systems.
AutoVue allows users to view, markup and collaborate in real-time on over 450
native formats from a common user interface. Available in both Desktop or
Client-Server Editions, the product allows users to access and provide feedback
on critical product data, regardless of format, either locally or over a
network/Internet. The AutoVue API is also available to OEM partners wishing to
add visualization, markup, DMU and real-time collaboration capabilities to their
products.
