Datakit releases the version 2015.3 of its CAD formats reading and writing interfaces.

This version offers several new features:

  • The Siemens™ NX™ format writing is now available.

These improvements benefit to:

  • Components provided by Datakit to software vendors (CrossCad/Ware), enabling them to support many CAD formats in their own software.
  • The stand-alone converter CrossManager, enabling users to convert their CAD files very easily and quickly in dozens of different CAD formats without requiring any third-party software license.
