Vendor description: FRT is a plug-in application for Pro/E Wildfire 4.0, design engineers have a comprehensive set of tools to selectively replace geometries representing features in imported solid boundary representation models (IGES, STEP, etc) with true parametric features.

FRT enables design engineers to build design intelligence into imported models for easy, predictable changes. For example, a user can replace hole geometry with a hole feature and use it down-stream for assembly, detailing, and manufacturing. The non-modifiable static geometry is replaced with a fully editable hole feature. FRT can even recognize and place patterns of features.

Capabilities:

• Identify and replace static geometry with feature rich content.
  • Simple or sketched holes on flat or curved surfaces
  • Protrusions or pockets on flat or curved surfaces
  • Extruded slots
  • Constant radius rounds
  • Chamfers
  • Table pattern for holes
• Easy – to – use action/object approach
  • Select the desired feature search tool
  • Then select the surface or edge to start the search from
  • Have constant visual feedback during feature creation

Benefits:

• Facilitate down-stream re-use of imported models
• Rebuild flexibility into imported designs from a single, familiar modeling environment
• Increased efficiency over remastering 3D imported designs by hand

GCRI allows the Pro/E Wildfire 2.0 user to open Pro/E Wildfire 4.0 models.

Capabilities

• Read models generated in later releases into earlier releases (back to Pro/E Wildfire 2.0)
• Display and maintain the full feature tree in the earlier release
• Use later release models in downstream applications of earlier releases (analysis, mold design, routed systems, etc)
• Add features to later release models to support downstream application use
• Appending changes back to later release models to recover full model definition with no loss of design data

• Clean translation into earlier release eliminates need to repair neutral format translations
• More modeling information is now available to earlier release users for clearer understanding of modeling intent
• Protects existing geometry and design intent from changes in the earlier release
• Improves supply chain interoperability by reducing the cases where all participants must use the same release of Pro/E

Interface for Rhino in Pro/ENGINEER allows Pro/ENGINEER users to import data directly from native Rhinoceros version 1.0 through 4.0 files. This processor imports boundary representation surfaces, facet data, curves, and colors from *.3dm files.

Capabilities

• Import native files from Rhinoceros versions 1.0 through 4.0
• Import datum curves, colors, boundary representation data and facet data
• Create separate import and facet features for boundary representation and facet data respectively within a single Pro/ENGINEER part
• Interpret Rhinoceros layers to create a flat Pro/ENGINEER assembly structure with individual parts for each Rhinoceros layer

Benefits

• Increased efficiency over neutral format (STEP, IGES) translation
• Represent Rhino data as a Pro/ENGINEER flat assembly structure
• Edit imported facet and boundary representation data independently, within the same part

This GRANITE based, import-only processor is introduced for Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 (M140). The plug-in is included in the Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 4.0 (M010 and later) installation

KOMPAS-3D V10 LT is a functionally reduced version of 3D solid modelling system. It is a perfect way for those who starts learning 3D, as well as for persons who would like to rise designer's skills or just try in use and familiarize with new, complex MCAD solution.

Light version of KOMPAS combines all basic features for classical parametric 3D modelling, 2D drafting, design, release of documentation and interactive learning system KOMPAS-ABC in one and allows designers worldwide to learn advantages of using professional MCAD software. KOMPAS-3D LT is available for users in two languages: English or German, and the main difference from commercial software is that free version does not allow 3D assembling.  Useful system for students and 3D beginners, home usage and commercial testing.
