Enhancements announced for CAD libraries

CCE’s CATIA V5 libraries were updated to support reading and writing of CATIA V5R62017 data. CCE already has support for all the latest CAD versions including NX 11, CATIA V6 R2017x, Creo 4.0, Inventor 2017, and SOLIDWORKS 2017 among others.

PMI support also received a major boost in this release. Some notable updates include providing access to generic offset values in CATIA V5 to allow applications to easily position dimensions; providing annotations created using DimXpert suite in SOLIDWORKS; and providing access to entity (face/edge/vertex) associated to a specific PMI annotation in both SOLIDWORKS and NX libraries. CCE’s SOLIDWORKS libraries also allow access to user defined view-display-states in a model. This is particularly useful because a number of large OEMs often have their own specific modeling standards with custom/user-defined display states.

“We are fortunate to have a very demanding customer base licensing our CAD interop technology with hundreds of thousands of installed software seats of translators based on our technology. They keep us on our toes constantly and we are grateful for it. Our latest updates are in direct response to feedback we received from our customers and shows our ability to keep our ears to the ground and be able to quickly react to requests by dedicating resources and delivering the requested functionality in short order,” said Vinay Wagle, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
