CATIA V4 - Unigraphics CADverter Translation Service

CADverter is a direct database converter between CATIA and Unigraphics. It enables the user to convert all forms of mechanical design geometry, as well as assembly and attribute information, between these two systems.

CADverter can be purchased as a uni-directional, CATIA to Unigraphics, or Unigraphics to CATIA product, or as a bi-directional product.

It can be used Interactively or in a batch mode, from a standard G.U.I. Interface.

If you wish to visualise and interrogate the CATIA or Unigraphics files this can be done by using the integrated CADviewer product, which is included with CADverter.

CADverter reads and writes CATIA and Unigraphics data independent of the native CAD System and converts all geometry. If assembly data (product structure) is in the file, the assembly structure will be mapped between the two systems as well as colour and layer information.

The user can filter data to optimise the process. In addition CADverter will work with other Theorem products including CADhealer and Data Exchange Navigator (DXN) .

CATIA V4 / Unigraphics MAIN FEATURES

Converts all types of geometry, wire frame, surfaces, trimmed surfaces (faces) and solid models.
Converts pipes and harness data including components.
Converts assembly structure between the systems.
Converts attribute data including colour and layer information.
Reads and Writes Unigraphics files independently of Unigraphics.
Reads and Writes CATIA V4 files independently of CATIA.
The conversion process can be run Interactively or in Batch mode.
CADviewer enables you to view the CATIA and Unigraphics files before and after conversion.
Data can be filtered by layer and entity type.
Geometry can be filtered and selectively processed.

CATIA V4 / Unigraphics BENEFITS

Being a direct database converter all pre and post processing is eliminated, saving time.
The integrated CADviewer enables you to verify visually, and verify by measuring the data pre and post conversion, eliminating time converting unwanted data, or sending out incorrect data.
The CADviewer and filtering options allow you to selectively process the data, enabling you to optimise conversions and save time.
The ability to read and write Unigraphics and CATIA data independently, eliminates the need to tie up expensive CAD licences, saving money.
By converting all forms of geometry no data is lost, eliminating the time required to re-create missing data.
With over 15 years industrial use CADverters robustness and quality is well proven, reducing your business risk.
