‘Cad Drawings’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Proficiency Collaboration Gateway 8.1 released from
TranscenData Europe, which we summarised at the time by saying "ITI Transcendata has released Proficiency Collaboration Gateway 8.1: the latest edition of its feature-based computer-aided-design (CAD) interoperability solution for manufacturers and suppliers.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release ZWCAD update allows switching between drawings from
ZWCAD: "ZWSOFT has released an updated version of its ZWCAD package, 2009i. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from 3Dconnexion
- take a look at 3Dconnection mice support SolidWorks CAD software
which says: "3Dconnexion has announced that its full line of 3D mice, including the SpacePilot PRO flagship 3D mouse, now supports SolidWorks 2010, the newest version of the 3D CAD software. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Varicad, Varicad updates 3D/2D mechanical CAD system,
as well as IntelliCAD 6.6 supports ITC member products from IntelliCAD Technology Consortium,
and Solidprofessor announces Update Training course from SolidProfessor.
