Software eases data management
CADverters for IsoDraw provide a highly cost-effective and easy to use method of dealing with Catia and UG NX data.
Translators boost operating speed
Theorem's new series of CADverters will typically translate data to and from PTC's Pro/E format three times faster than before.
The new translators are designed specifically to support the Catia V5, Pro/Engineer Wildfire, Autodesk Inventor, ProductView, VisMock and ICEM Surf communities.
In addition, Theorem has developed these new CADverters using the commercially-available APIs of each CAD system it supports.
As a result, the new family of Revision 8 translators offers guaranteed compatibility with the latest application releases from an extensive list of vendors that includes Autodesk, Dassault System, ICEM Technologies, PTC and UGS.

Module eases CAD data imports
Using Theorem's new "Multi-CAD" module, Catia V5 users can simply "insert" UGNX data into the current workspace without the need to undertake an external CAD translation.
Translator simplifies collaboration
Theorem's new Universal Catia translator for UGNX users both streamlines and simplifies data translation and collaborative working under real-world conditions.
CADverter Revision 8 is also the first release from Theorem to offer a common graphical user interface for both Unix and Windows users.
Developed using Java, the updated interface presents operators with a common look and feel.
In addition, it provides identical operation on the full range of Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, IRIX and Windows operating systems.
Accordingly, CADverter Revision 8 can be deployed on a variety of platforms across a network with complete commonality and consistency, irrespective of each user's working environment.
Like previous Theorem releases, Revision 8 CADverters will be available in both unidirectional and bidirectional forms; enabling customers to tailor installations to their specific requirements.
All new Theorem sales from the 1st August 2004 will be shipped as Revision 8 products, and existing Theorem customers will receive upgrades to Revision 8 under current maintenance contracts.
Existing users can also request priority delivery of the new software via a special web page.
According to General Manager Keith Jeacock, CADverter Revision 8 represents a milestone in Theorem's development of interoperability tools for the PLM market.
"It reflects our ability to simultaneously develop entirely new products, as well as to enhance existing products", he said.
"It also demonstrates that we have the resources to keep fully up to date with the latest releases from all the leading CAD system vendors".
"This strong combination underlines our commitment to continue delivering best-in-class products across the whole CAD product data exchange market".
