Lattice Technology Inc. has released updated converters that allow 3D CAD data to be read into XVL.
XVL Converter version 6.1 supports major 3D CAD formats, including Wildfire 5, Autodesk Inventor 2010, Solid Edge ST2, and Wildfire 5 64-bit platforms.
These converters are offered as plug-ins to CAD systems, as well as stand-alone applications alongside 3D CAD seats and inside PLM systems. According to the company, they enable compression of 3D design data up to 0.5 percent of its original size with no loss of accuracy. This compression makes it possible for manufacturing enterprises to mock up, simulate, and manipulate 3D data on lower specification PCs. The Lattice3D Dataway application also supports import and export of 3D PDF data into XVL.
