"With AutoVue 18, Cimmetry has included MCAD and EDA functionality that goes beyond the capabilities of traditional viewing and markup applications", says Martyn Day, Group Editor at Cadserver, MCAD and AEC Magasines.
"By providing multiple CAD digital mockup (DMU), AutoVue has become a powerful design validation tool for engineering teams which may run different CAD systems, in different geographical locations".
"The ability to combine multi-source electronics and mechanical parts, components and assemblies in a DMU environment and perform analysis, such as clash detection, will prove invaluable for the growing number of EDA and MCAD designers".
"These are unique capabilities and strengthen Cimmetry's position in the engineering market".
"It's very impressive".
Ken Versprille, Partner, PLM Research Director at CPDA says: "AutoVue 18's digital mockup is a leap forward in visualisation and collaboration technology that will help bridge the gap between EDA, 3D mechanical design, and manufacturing".
"The product's strong capabilities in 3D interference checking, EDA design verification, and innovative cross-probe functionality make it a leading solution for manufacturing companies".
AutoVue 18 adds support for many new formats and contains significant new features.
"AutoVue 18 is breaking down the traditional barriers to product lifecycle management in a typical mechanical/electronics environment", says Pam Petropoulos, Marketing Manager at Cimmetry Systems.
"By delivering the unique capability to combine native MCAD and EDA assemblies in a digital mockup, new EDA functionality and extensive format support in one all-encompassing solution, AutoVue is the most comprehensive visualisation and collaboration solution on the market today".
