Kubotek USA and Synergis Software announce their partnership to bring Synergis Adept PDM software to the KeyCreator Direct CAD customer base through development of an integrated plug-in. Adept PDM for KeyCreator will be available in late summer 2015. Many of Kubotek’s larger contract manufacturer customers have requested a PDM solution to help them ensure accurate drawing revisions and engineering change control throughout their entire design to manufacture process. The selection of Synergis Software, with their 20 years of product data management know-how and support, strengthens KeyCreator’s legendary flexibility. The flexibility in this case is not in how a user can create or edit designs, but in how users can manage large numbers of CAD documents from multiple CAD applications, as so often happens with contract manufacturers. Says Matt Carr, Vice President, Sales & Support, Kubotek, “The coupling of KeyCreator’s industry leading Direct Modeling technology with the PDM capabilities offered by Synergis Software means we can

SPEC's Application Performance Characterization (SPECapc) project group has released new performance evaluation software for systems running Dassault Systemes' SolidWorks 2015 CAD/CAM application. The benchmark is designed to run on Microsoft Windows 7 64-bit platforms. SPECapc for SolidWorks 2015 consists of nine graphics and two CPU tests. The graphics tests use three SolidWorks view settings -- RealView, ambient occlusion and shadows -- in combination with shaded and shaded-with-edges display styles. The CPU tests perform tessellation and PhotoView360 rendering. Twelve models are included in the benchmark, three of which are new in this version of the benchmark, with the largest comprising 4.75-million triangles. New features in this version include order-independent transparency (OIT), a modern methodology for quickly displaying transparency, and full-scene anti-aliasing (FSAA) for higher-quality visuals. The benchmark can be run with either default anti-aliasing (edges/sketches only) or with FSAA. It generates individual scores for each test and computes composite scores for graphics and
