San Francisco, CA. — Lattice Technology Inc.® announced a series of upgrades to its 3D CAD Conversion tools. As a result of these upgrades, XVL now supports data from the most current 3D CAD tools, including 64-bit CAD platforms.
Lattice Technology’s XVL format allows for very accurate, very compressed 3D CAD data to be used by others, who don’t have a CAD platform, but who are integrated within a digital manufacturing workflow. Lattice Technology’s XVL Converters use leading edge conversion technologies to enable the translation of 3D CAD data from every major 3D CAD format. The Converters are available as plug-ins into a CAD seat, or as Servers that work within a manufacturing IT system or enterprise workflow. Recent upgrades to these converters include support for:
* Pro/ENGINEER® WildFire® 4
* Autodesk Inventor® 2009, in both Plug-in and Server versions
* 64-bit versions of NX™
* 64-bit versions of SolidWorks®.
The converters already support current and older versions of CATIA®, Pro/ENGINEER, I-DEAS, CoCreate®, Autodesk Mechanical Desktop®, SolidWorks, NX, Solid Edge® and many neutral 3D CAD file formats.
In addition, the Converters already support 64-bit versions of CATIA and Pro/ENGINEER.
