All TransMagic products can perform multiple operations simultaneously by taking advantage of dual and quad-core computers.
The TransMagic R7 SP2 3D multiCAD/CAM interoperability software provides parallel processing technology, a new JT read/write add-on translator and major CAD version support.
Large CAD file translation and geometry repair operations are very compute-intensive.
All TransMagic products can perform multiple operations simultaneously by taking advantage of dual and quad-core computers.
This combination of hardware and software technologies results in significant performance gains for TransMagic users.
"Many TransMagic customers are translating hundreds of files per day", said Todd Reade, President of TransMagic.
"Implementing parallel processing allows our users to translate and repair numerous files in a much shorter period of time".
TransMagic now reads and writes JT files in both visualisation and B-Rep forms.
JT files with B-Rep information can be translated as geometry for use in any CAD/CAM/CAE application.
TransMagic now offers more than 150 different data exchange options in one application.
TransMagic R7 SP2 products are officially certified by Autodesk for use with Inventor 2009.
This release includes updated CAD version support for Catia V5 R18, SolidWorks 2008 and ACIS R18 file formats.
New split window view ports and high-resolution 2D image processing will help many engineers successfully translate, repair and share 3D files for vendors and a range of downstream users.
TransMagic software products dramatically reduce the costs of reusing CAD designs in manufacturing applications and eliminate the delays associated with redrafting designs, outsourcing file translations and sharing design data.
