Tools for CAD Collaboration
Posted by 3DCAD Editor
by Larry Boulden, Senior Editor When CADCAMNet surveyed how 3D data is used, they found that interoperability issues are universal: every respondent dealt with different file types; most used some type of collaboration tools. Take a typical design scenario: a machine assembly created using one CAD system, for example, SolidWorks. The engineers do not design all the parts, however; they specify many parts from their supply chain, even more may be supplied by a program partner, contracted for a specialized...
You might be interested in what we are up to also on the 3D CAD collaboration front. 3D CAD collaboration prototyping application that can be completely embedded into any Microsoft Office app – FULL GUI. Lightweight but very powerful. Stand alone version also but opens up 3D CAD collaboration to the masses!
