Catia V5/V6 and Siemens NX users will undoubtedly be familiar with the challenges of successfully collaborating concurrently with internal and external teams using different CAD and PLM systems. Successful development depends on a seamless two-way exchange of data and a requirement to conform to company PLM procedures, data validation and engineering best practices.  Multi-CAD has been developed specifically for V5 and V6 users by Theorem Solutions to improve the process of associative design collaboration between CATIA and NX users.   Multi-CAD is a V5/V6 plugin that improves collaboration by enabling the CATIA user to work interactively with NX data directly from within a CATIA design environment. This clever application also checks geometry for errors and validates the integrity of the data as it comes into Catia. Multi-CAD then tracks changes and updates the master model as each sub-assembly is developed. The beauty of the solution is the interdependency of the NX and

Siemens, and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), today announced ETO2Win, a new joint software and services solution for automating complex Engineer-to-Order (ETO) processes. ETO2Win leverages TCS’ domain expertise and Siemens’ Rulestream™ software, developed by its product lifecycle management (PLM) business. ETO2Win is designed to capture, manage and reuse corporate intellectual property to automate engineering processes for manufacturers. ETO2Win addresses business challenges faced by ETO manufacturers by streamlining business processes associated with custom-built products, improving proposal accuracy and win rates, and enhancing the predictability of costs, margins and on-time delivery. “Siemens’ powerful ETO software technology, combined with TCS’ proven ETO process framework, provides our customers with an enterprise level solution for accelerating sales and order engineering processes for custom products,” said Caroll Jarvis, vice president, Global Alliance Sales, Siemens PLM Software. “This innovative software and services approach has created a comprehensive solution that reduces implementation time and risk, ultimately yielding a faster return

PDF3D have spent the past few months building in some key PMI features for developers in their V2.10 SDK released today. Until now annotation layers are often lost when PMI is published in visual formats outside of native CAD systems. This new release removes these issues for developers looking to integrate 3D PDF conversion functionality. "As engineers are increasingly required to communicate their models in a universally accessible format, they are choosing to create reports in 3D PDF. Through close collaboration with our PLM clients in North America and Europe we have enabled critical GD&T with standardized PMI annotations, symbols and styles to help developers conform to the ASME Y14.5 standards", explained Ian Curington of PDF3D. New features in V2.10 PDF3D-SDK include advances in PMI details with the ability to add filled polygon annotation shapes and lead-line arrow-heads. The new version now also supports Face View, Frame Draw and Fixed Size modes.

The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium (ITC) has announced the release of IntelliCAD 8.0. Available in both 64-bit and 32-bit versions, IntelliCAD 8.0 opens, saves, and creates .dwg files, including the latest 2014 file format. New features include layer states, layer filters with search, layer transparency and viewport freeze, .cui custom menu files, quick select, 3D orbit, additional grid capabilities, Collada (.dae) file import, MrSID MG4 compressed raster image support, and more. In addition to core computer-aided-design (CAD) features, IntelliCAD is a development platform on which member companies develop custom applications. IntelliCAD 8.0 includes several API enhancements including updates to Open Design Alliance (ODA) Teigha® version 3.9.1 and support for VBA 7.1. ITC members also now have access to source code for advanced rendering and image processing components. Victor Neves, President of CAD Manufacturing Solutions, Inc. (CMS), an ITM member company, stated, “We're extremely excited about the IntelliCAD 8 release. This is a major release

IMSI®/Design today announced the release of its updated Software Development Kit (SDK) for 2D and 3D CAD viewing on iOS and Android mobile platforms. The TurboApps SDK allows developers like California-based AppTree Software to integrate award-winning 2D and 3D DWG and DXF viewing into their apps quickly and without any of the significant cost associated with such an extensive development project. "We were able to incorporate the fastest viewing platform available on mobile -- one that has been years in development -- in almost no time. The Android version alone was only a few hours," says Robert Guinn, co-founder of AppTree Software. "As important, the product is rock-solid stable, which is critical to our enterprise customers." Three versions of the TurboApps SDK are now available for iOS and Android: Free TurboViewer SDK now includes the following features: View 2D and 3D Drawings Support AutoCAD Views View .DWG and .DXF files View 2D/3D Wireframe Powered with TurboViewer by IMSI/Design banner TurboViewer X SDK offers
