3D-Tool simplifies and speeds up the analysis, presentation and
communication of CAD data. The viewer dynamically displays CAD models in 3D and
2D. Complete projects can be saved into one compact EXE-File which for example
might be sent by email. The recipient doesn’t need an expensive CAD system or
3D-Tool licenses to view the models. The EXE-Files contain the viewer and the
data and need no further installation to start up. The intuitive interface
allows a close examination of the design without special CAD skills. So 3D-Tool
eases the coordination inside the project team or with other parties such as
customers and suppliers.
edited as well as shown or hidden. It is quick and easy to add annotations and
dimensions, to create cross sections or to change colors. The “Assembly
Explode” tool allows users to create exploded views of the model without losing
the original positions of its elements. With the “Animation” tool it is possible to arrange
these assembly explodes and other user-defined “Custom Views” to create
continuous animations. The animations can be played directly in 3D-Tool or
exported as AVI video. A full screen mode is available for presentations.
Any view can be printed separately or in combination with others, or can be
exported as a picture file.
V8 is available in two versions – “Basic” and “Advanced”. The basic version supports
common formats such as STL, VRML, SLP and 3DS. The advanced interface
additionally supports STEP, IGS, VDA, SAT and PARASOLID files. Both versions
support the 2D formats DXF, DWG and HPGL. So 3D-Tool can be used in
combination with most Mechanical CAD systems like Pro/Engineer, CATIA,
Unigraphics, Solid Edge, SolidWorks, AutoCAD und Autodesk Inventor.
The latest version 8 is downloadable from www.3D-Tool.de
and can be evaluated for 14 days, unrestricted and without obligation, after
requesting a free Trial Key.
