Parallel Processing Introduced in TransMagic 3D CAD Interoperability Software
TransMagic Inc. announced the release of its latest product update, TransMagic R7 SP2. This version introduces parallel processing technology, a new JT read/write add-on translator, major CAD version support and other usability features. Large CAD file translation and geometry repair operations are very compute-intensive. With this release, all TransMagic products can perform multiple operations simultaneously by taking advantage of dual and quad core computers. This combination of hardware and software technologies results in significant performance gains for TransMagic users.
“Many TransMagic customers are translating hundreds of files per day,” said Todd Reade, President of TransMagic. “Implementing parallel processing allows our users to translate and repair numerous files in a much shorter period of time.”
TransMagic now reads and writes JT files in both visualization and B-Rep forms. JT files with B-Rep information can be translated as geometry for use in any CAD/CAM/CAE application. With the addition of JT, TransMagic now offers more than 150 different data exchange options in one application.
TransMagic R7 SP2 products are officially certified by Autodesk for use with Inventor 2009. This release includes updated CAD version support for CATIA V5 R18, SolidWorks 2008 and ACIS R18 file formats.
New split window view ports, high resolution 2D image processing and other usability features in this release will help many engineers successfully translate, repair and share 3D files for vendors and a variety of downstream users. TransMagic software products reduce the costs of reusing CAD designs in manufacturing applications and eliminate the unnecessary delays and expenses associated with redrafting designs, outsourcing file translations and sharing design data.
