November 11, 2015 – ITI announces the release of CADIQ 8.2, the latest version of the innovative 3D CAD model validation and product data quality product.
CADIQ identifies model-based design (MBD) data quality issues that impact downstream reuse for tooling, simulation and data exchange. When design problems are diagnosed on the manufacturing floor, CADIQ can effectively communicate them to engineering using 3D PDF.
CADIQ compares geometry, assembly structure, design features and product manufacturing information among related models to identify significant differences. These are summarized in statistical reports and visualized with interactive 3D graphics.
Highlights of CADIQ 8.2 :
- Improved diagnostic results and performance for complex models
- Identify and accommodate structure changes in assembly components
- Improved PMI quality checking
- Improved semantic property comparison
- Improved STEP mixed unit assembly face tessellation
- New NX part reference set filtering
- New high level validation of derivative 3D PDF (PRC) with Tessellated MESH
- New high level validation of JT Tessellated BREP to derivative 3D PDF (PRC)
- New JT lightweight section support
- New JT Tessellated BREP and Tessellated MESH support
- New support for SOLIDWORKS 2016 MBE views
- Updated CAD interfaces (see specifications)
