ITI Transcendata enhances Cadfix software
ITI Transcendata has announced the release of Cadfix 8.0, the latest edition of its CAD interoperability tool that offers 3D model data exchange and reuse between different engineering applications.
Cadfix allows the user to import CAD data, efficiently repair and adapt it, and export in the most suitable form for reuse in the downstream system, eliminating the need for expensive CAD model rework.
The release of Cadfix 8.0 sees many developments and consolidates the incremental service pack functionality that has been released over the last year.
Some of the updates include the Shrink Wrap STL Generator that creates watertight representations of parts or assemblies with the ability to suppress gaps and surface details smaller than user-controlled size.
Tools for detecting and imprinting the contact regions between touching solids, including advanced handling of cyclic symmetry have also been included.
A native 64-bit version for Windows and Linux enables the import, processing and export of massive models previously beyond the 32-bit limits.
The latest version of Cadfix detects and eliminates geometry conditions that often cause meshing problems in CAE applications.
Additional enhancements include: advanced STL processing tools, including quality checks and decimation; the ability to handle very large CAD models and assemblies without entity limit; the ability to import and merge models into an open (live) session; a tool to find and rejoin fragmented Nurbs surfaces (Catia V4 to V5 migration issue); and an enhanced feature deletion that allows processing of higher complexity features.
