CADfix

CADfix allows designers, analysts and engineers to exchange their CAD/CAM/CAE data quickly and easily, eliminating up to 90 percent of data rework. CADfix offer numerous advantages and support:

• Multiple CAD imports
• Batch processing
• Intelligent model quality diagnostics and repair
• Automatic processing Wizards
• User-controlled model defeaturing
• Interactive fixing tools
• Multiple CAD/CAE exports

We designed the workflow within CADfix to accommodate novice, occasional and experienced users, so translations and repairs requiring manual intervention can be completed with minimal effort:

• Diagnostic results are explained and illustrated in clear, accessible language
• Problems are color-coded according to severity
• Users are guided through a choice of solutions
• Model diagnostics are automatically updated after each repair

Proficiency

The Proficiency solution enables the transfer of the complete design intelligence between major CAD systems which includes geometry, features, sketches, manufacturing info, metadata, assembly information and drawings in the conversion process. High quality CAD models are transferred without losing their workability or manufacturing data. Moreover, the process not only preserves the design intelligence, but more importantly adds value by removing old issues embedded in the original model and extracting additional added value from a CAD migration or conversion. This results in fully functional models in the target CAD systems, which retain the original design intelligence while providing a reliable basis for further development.

Streamline your CAD migration to the following:

• V5 (From CATIA V4, NX, I-deas or Pro/E)
• NX (From CATIA V4, V5, I-deas or Pro/E)
• Pro/E (From CATIA V4, V5, NX or I-deas)

Associative Drawing Translations

Proficiency also supports the migration of native associative drawings. The translation of associative drawings allows for the migration of linked 2D and 3D data in one automated procedure.

Supported CAD systems include:

• CATIA V4 (from)
• CATIA V5 (from and to)
• NX (from and to)

Please contact us for availability of the translation solutions for CAD systems not in the list.

DEXcenter

ITI TranscenData's DEXcenter incorporates a defined CAD translation methodology in a repeatable way to ensure best practices. DEXcenter is enabled to support the processing of hundreds of assorted CAD related applications including but not limited to:

• CAD system standards translators (IGES, STEP, DXF, Parasolid, ACIS)
• Direct translators from ITI, other vendors, customer specific applications
• 2D drawing mapping and flavoring for migration via IGESworks
• 3D Model translation and repair applications such as CADfix
• Feature based translation through Proficiency
• Validation applications such as CADIQ
• Other generalized pre-post migration processing functionality that requires automation
• Integration into PLM/PDM systems to better automate migration work flows

Online Translation Services

ITI TranscenData provides online CAD translation services to meet the infrequent translation needs some companies may have that make a full onsite translation solution cost prohibitive. If your translation needs are 3 or fewer files per month then ITI TranscenData's translation service may be the right solution for you.

Standard Pricing:

• 0-20 Mb:       $200 (up to 2 hrs AE time)
• 20-40 Mb:     $400 (up to 3 hrs AE time)
• 40-60 Mb:     $600 (up to 4 hrs AE time)
• 60+ Mb:         Call or submit file for quote

The pricing includes hands on interactive repair, healing and verification time (as required and as indicated above) with an engineer experienced in CAD data translation. Most online CAD translation services involve the application of ITI TranscenData's CADfix technology. Any file requiring more than the standard allotted time for a successful translation will be quoted on an hourly basis at $200/hr.

Supported Formats:

Native (latest and last 2 releases) : CATIA V4, CATIA V5, UG-NX, Pro/ENGINEER, NX I-deas, SolidWorks, SolidEdge, AutoCAD, Mechanical Desktop, Inventor, ANSYS

Neutral : IGES, STEP, Parasolid, ACIS, DXF/DWG

Manual Re-mastering Services

In some cases, the only way to migrate 2D Drawing and/or associated 3D Legacy Models is through manual remastering. ITI TranscenData provides cost effective remastering management services along with low cost off-shore design labor to accomplish our customer's needs. Some aspects of ITI's remastering management service include:

• Designers knowledgeable in both modeling systems to define a modeling process
• Automated Pre-processing of source data to correct source system errors ahead of time
• Modeling methodology options utilized to ensure effective reuse of data in target system
• Support for all data formats including assemblies, models, drawings, weldments, etc.
• Intelligent 2D Drawing and 3D Model Associativity
• Use of an Advanced Project Collaboration software for file exchange and management
• Independent validation of remastered 3D CAD models
