Direct CAD™ Interfaces and Translators
Direct CAD™ Interfaces and Translators
Introducing Direct CAD Interfaces
Direct CAD Interfaces connect directly to your CAD system from PC-DMIS. This uses the native CAD data from various CAD systems within PC-DMIS.
Why Direct CAD Interfaces?
Quickly and accurately measuring your part programs requires the best tools. PC-DMIS™ Version 3.0 gave you better tools than you ever had before. Now, PC-DMIS Version 3.2 or higher offers an even more powerful enhancement unmatched by other geometric measurement packages.
Enjoy the flexibility of using PC-DMIS in conjunction with CAD systems (these include Unigraphics, CATIA, Pro/ENGINEER, I-DEAS and ACIS.
Avoid the possibility of errors and limitations associated with translation of data from CAD systems into PC-DMIS' internal CAD format.
Work with PC-DMIS using CAD data native to various CAD systems.
Calculate information inside PC-DMIS using mathematical routines native to other CAD systems.
Display, and interact with a CAD system's native geometry, all the while never leaving PC-DMIS.
Wilcox Associates, Inc. (WAI) introduces Direct CAD™ Interfaces.
What are Direct CAD Interfaces?
Earlier attempts at using data from various CAD systems within PC-DMIS required internal CAD data translations that were, at times, prone to errors and data loss.
Directly interfacing with a CAD system, however, does not translate the CAD data. Instead, this unique functionality actually uses the CAD system's native mathematical routines to obtain the requested information. A Direct CAD interface also uses the CAD system's native API to access the CAD database for displaying and interacting with the geometry.
Why are Direct CAD Interfaces Important?
While directly interfacing with a CAD system requires a CAD system's license, it offers numerous benefits. These include:
An interface within PC-DMIS linked directly to the CAD.
Accurate CAD data, free from translation errors and limitations.
Access to GD&T information in the future as CAD systems expose this information with their native APIs.
Reduced programming time and improved program quality.
Thanks to Direct CAD Interfaces, you can now easily and accurately use data from various CAD systems directly in PC-DMIS, saving both time and accuracy.
