Abaqus/CAE

Company / developer:
  Dassault Systemes

With Abaqus/CAE you can quickly and efficiently create, edit, monitor, diagnose, and visualize advanced Abaqus analyses. The intuitive interface integrates modeling, analysis, job management, and results visualization in a consistent, easy-to-use environment that is simple to learn for new users, yet highly productive for experienced users. Abaqus/CAE supports familiar interactive computer-aided engineering concepts such as feature-based, parametric modeling, interactive and scripted operation, and GUI customization.

Users can create geometry, import CAD models for meshing, or integrate geometry-based meshes that do not have associated CAD geometry. Interfaces for CATIA V5, SolidWorks, and Pro/ENGINEER enable synchronization of CAD and CAE assemblies and enable rapid model updates with no loss of user-defined analysis features.

The open customization toolset of Abaqus/CAE provides a powerful process automation solution, enabling specialists to deploy proven workflows across the engineering enterprise. Abaqus/CAE also offers comprehensive visualization options, which enable users to interpret and communicate the results of any Abaqus analysis.

CADfix

Company / developer:
  ITI TranscenData

CADfix provides a solution for the problems of data exchange and re-use between different engineering systems and applications. It allows the user to import CAD data and then to repair and manipulate it to a form most suitable for the downstream application - with the main objective of eliminating expensive CAD model repair and rework. CADfix is a suite of translation and repair tools for engineering product data. The result of two decades of ongoing research and development, CADfix offers true interoperability between a comprehensive selection of CAD, CAM and CAE systems through an unrivalled series of automatic and manual geometry manipulation tools.

The CADfix Process

The CADfix Wizard offers an automatic processing capability for fixing the data to a valid well connected surface or solid model. The Wizard is supported by an extensive set of interactive geometry manipulation tools for use as required.

CADfix also offers model defeaturing utilities which are very popular with CAE analysis users who defeature the model with operations such as the joining or collapsing of short edges and small faces, and automatic hole removal.

The CADfix geometry preparation process then makes sure that the model is suitably flavored for the downstream application. This includes detecting and repairing badly parameterized surfaces, twisted or folded surfaces and simplifying overly complex entities - all within user controlled tolerances.

Who should use CADfix?

CADfix is the ideal solution for anyone who needs to:

• Share product data between departments or with customers and suppliers
• Reuse solid model geometry in different classes of CAD/CAM/CAE applications
• Recover legacy data that would otherwise need to be remodeled from scratch

CATIA MultiCAx plug-in

Company / developer:
  Dassault Systemes

MultiCAx Plug-in : Product overview

The MultiCAx products provide the ability to handle proprietary data from a large number of CAD systems. The MultiCAx products allow the import of 3D data from I-DEAS, Pro/ENGINEER, Unigraphics, SolidEdge, Inventor, SolidWorks, ACIS, Parasolid, DELMIA, CATIA Version 4, CATIA Version 5 and various other formats (IGES, STEP, STL, SLP, OBJ Wavefront, VRML, I-DEAS IFF). The MultiCAx products also support 2D data from AutoCAD (DXF) and Unigraphics.

The MultiCAx products may be used in conjunction with DELMIA Portal products to visualize a multiCAx digital mock-up, with DELMIAVPM and DELMIA LCA to support management of product structures that include multiCAx parts and in conjunction with CATIA to enable data coming from non-CATIA systems to be used in a hybrid product development environment.

When these products are used with DELMIAVPM or DELMIA LCA, they allow original multiCAx assemblies and/or part definition data to be stored as documents in the vault. Part definition data is converted into CGR (and, for DELMIA LCA, NCGM) format and stored against the relevant part. In the case of DELMIA LCA, assembly structures and new parts can be created in the database. A stored assembly can be extracted from the vault and modified in the original editor. Changes can then be stored back into DELMIA. Assemblies made up of mixed CATIA and other CAx geometry can be loaded into CATIA V5 or DELMIA DMU from DELMIAVPM or DELMIA LCA, modified and changes stored back.

Product Highlights

The MULTICAx products allow:

Organisations to preserve their CAD investment while still benefiting from rich design-in-context and digital mock-up processes.
Collaborative working, with data coming from multiple different CAD systems, and being used in a single heterogeneous digital mock-up and design environment.

Exact positioning and exact measurement of MultiCAx parts using facilities offered by the digital mock-up and design tools such as planes, coordinate systems and cylinder axis.

Assembly support: Where assemblies are supported, the links they carry towards component parts are resolved, allowing complete assemblies to be automatically and accurately inserted into the digital mock-up product structure.

The user can interactively insert MULTICAx native data directly in to digital mock-ups, or by using the batch mode, the user can convert MultiCAx data into CATIA V5 data and then open all necessary V5 format data into a CATIA, DMU or 3d com Navigator session.

For some plug-ins used in a Windows environment, translation does not require a license for the source CAD system.

Product Key Customers Benefits

Many customer environments involve the use of multiple CAD/CAM products, either 2D or 3D. This may be because over time, as one CAD product replaces another, it was necessary to keep a minimum number of the previous systems licenses to maintain the data. Or perhaps the different products satisfy different requirements across mechanical, electrical or software development departments. Then again, in an extended enterprise where multiple suppliers are exchanging data, it may be that members of the engineering supply chain use different CAD systems. In all these cases, full design-in-context capabilities are only available if the designers are able to use the CAD data whichever tool it comes from. MultiCAx products provide the ability to convert foreign CAD data from its native format into a format compatible with a digital mock-up development environment and to support collaborative work for implementation of best practices such as review, interference detection, kinematics, fitting and so on using DELMIA Portal. Customers using CATIA can benefit from the multiCAx environment made possible by these products to optimise their design-in-context design practices by using mixed CATIA and multiCAx geometry.

CADKEY

Company / developer:
  CADKEY

CADKEY

For many years, CADKEY was the most popular CAD 3D wireframe solution for the PC. The product line still helps companies conduct business today and at some companies CADKEY is still their main CAD application. The intuitive interface and simplicity of operation made it an efficient and widely used design tool. In late 2003, Kubotek Corporation acquired the CADKEY technology and replaced the CADKEY product line with KeyCreator. Many CADKEY users felt CADKEY delivered a great deal of capabilities, and were very happy staying with the CADKEY product. Even though the product has not been enhanced in some time, to a great number of CADKEY users it still fulfills their CAD needs. Current CADKEY users still find themselves very productive using CADKEY.
