Just about anywhere you see a 2D engineering drawing, you can use the SolidView family of products instead. By giving everyone involved in the product development and support process a 3D view they can move, scale, rotate and measure, you increase their understanding of the data and improve their productivity. The advantages of SolidView over 2D drawings include:

• Users can view and measure the 3D data
• Valuable engineering time is not wasted on creating 2D drawings
• Users can directly view up-to-date CAD data instead of outdated 2D drawings
• Complex designs and assemblies can be viewed on a low-cost PC, saving plotting paper and supplies and reducing the security risk of drawing disposal

• Assembly Instructions
  

  Assembly Instructions

  SolidView/Pro's Scene Save and Replay function, combined with the free SolidView/Lite viewer, is a powerful tool for creating 3D assembly instructions. Since a fully-functioning copy of SolidView/Lite can be installed on a CD, end-users do not need to purchase or install any software in order to view the assembly instructions.

  Key SolidView features used in creating 3D assembly instructions are:

  • Scene Save and Replay: Create 3D slide shows that can be scaled and rotated giving the end-user the ability to create any view necessary to understand the instructions
  • Extensive annotation features including notes, text, arrows and images
  • Free SolidView/Lite viewer ensures that everyone involved can have a 3D view of the design
  • Simple, easy to learn view control tools
• Design Collaboration
  

  Design Collaboration

  SolidView/Pro's slide advanced measurement and mark-up capabilities, along with the free SolidView/Lite viewer, makes it possible to discuss complex design issues with someone next door, or on the other side of the world. Author registration and review features make it easy to keep track of annotations and the small size of .SVD files makes it possible to exchange even complex designs over the Internet.

  Key SolidView features used in design collaboration are:

  • Scene Save and Replay: Create 3D slide shows that can be scaled and rotated to easily communicate complex design issues
  • Extensive annotation features including notes, text, arrows and images
  • Free SolidView/Lite viewer ensures that everyone involved can have a 3D view of the design
• Design Reviews
  

  Design Reviews

  SolidView's extensive, yet easy-to-use viewing controls, along with a full suite of markup and annotation tools, makes it easy to document and explain complex designs.

  Key SolidView features used in design reviews are:

  • Scene Save and Replay
  • Integrated 2D and 3D View and Markup
  • Measurement tools
  • Free SolidView/Lite viewer
• Project Management
  

  Project Management

  With SolidView/Pro's direct CAD formats, everyone involved in a project, from management to manufacturing, can have instant access to the latest CAD data, without the time and expense of CAD systems. SolidView's easy to learn user interface allows non-CAD users to view and measure design data, without any risk that they will modify or damage the actual CAD data.

  Key SolidView features used in project management are:

  • Direct CAD formats that enable users to read native CAD data, without a CAD system.
  • Advanced measurement tools
  • Low cost and easy to learn interface makes it possible to deploy SolidView throughout your organization
