A registered Autodesk developer since 1995, Okino Computer Graphics, Inc. (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is shipping its software products that have received the Autodesk Inventor 2009 Certification. Okino has been shipping this Autodesk Inventor conversion pipeline since Inventor v5.
The Autodesk Inventor solution allows crack-free geometry, hierarchy (assembly data), and materials to be transferred cleanly and robustly from native disk-based Autodesk Inventor files or from a running copy of the Autodesk Inventor directly into any Okino data-conversion-compliant program, such as PolyTrans, NuGraf, 3ds Max and Maya (via native plug-ins), EON Reality software, MAXON Cinema-4D, Visual Components’ 3DCreate, NGRAIN, and other packages.
Some benefits of the Inventor Importer to Okino Customers include the ability to import complete assemblies (including assembly cuts and patterned geometry, as well as multiple sub-assemblies); Autodesk Inventor assemblies can be imported directly into Maya (using the PolyTrans-for-Maya native plug-in system) — or directly into 3ds Max (using the PolyTrans-for-MAX native plug-in system); Okino’s CAD Scene and Hierarchy Optimization System has been integrated right into the Autodesk Inventor importer; and more.
The Autodesk Inventor to Okino Software Data Conversion Process uses an exposed set of functions that Autodesk Inventor “publishes” to the outside world. Okino’s Autodesk Inventor importer queries all the part, assembly, and material data from the running copy of Autodesk Inventor using this COM interface.
