Plug-in allows easy 3D conversion
The XVL Convertor plug-in for Inventor allows users to convert 3D data created in the latest version of Autodesk Inventor into XVL for downstream uses.
3D software handles highly compressed files
XVL-compressed 3D models are lightweight enough to be easily emailed, so suppliers, partners and customers can participate in discussions about the details of components and assemblies.
The agreement between Lattice3D and EASi underscores the growing need for 3D publishing software within major automotive OEMs.
EASi is a leading supplier of engineering and CAE services to the automotive industry with a theme: "fast-to-market" partner.
Consistent with its theme, the focus of these services has been integrating IT, CAE and CAD services to improve productivity.

XVL is an ultra-compressed technology used to dramatically reduce the file size of 3D models created in an engineering CAD system without losing their fidelity.
Software family updated and expanded
New and improved applications allow users to reuse 3D engineering data in both interactive and print media for downstream needs.
For the year 2003, Ford has awarded EASi its "World Silver Excellence Award".
"Combining EASi's recognised system integration capabilities with Lattice3D's technology provides a powerful solution for the automotive manufacturing space", said Alexander Garcia-Tobar, President and CEO, Lattice3D.
"We are excited that such a prestigious integrator has endorsed our products and technologies".
"Our experience has shown that manufacturing companies do not often realise the time- and money-savings that could be made by being able to immediately re-purpose 3D data", said Vasantha Sural, VP of IT Services, EASi.
"Lattice3D provides the technologies, applications and solutions that make these savings incredibly easy to achieve".
"We are glad to be working with a forward-thinking company such as Lattice3D".
The Lattice3D technology directly converts, compresses, and publishes 2D and 3D data from engineering for immediate use in downstream applications ranging from assembly instructions to parts catalogues.
The Lattice3D technology speeds development and design cycles by allowing companies to publish, review and mark up data with a simple browser.
Major automotive, manufacturing, architecture and aerospace companies use Lattice3D's award-winning XVL-based technologies throughout the world to take data directly from engineering and convert and compress 3D images into an XVL file.
Easy to use publishing applications are then used by multiple business operations to produce user manuals, documentation, parts lists, assembly instructions and more in almost any format including Microsoft Office, Adobe PDF, Internet formats and HTML.
XVL enables the compression of very large data and the usage of computer memory so that end users are able to manipulate, email, and publish models that were originally 50-250 times larger, without loss of detail. Request free introductory details about products from Lattice Technology ...
