CrossManager V2024.4 Extends CAD Software Compatibility

Datakit's CrossManager V2024.4 extends the latest CAD software compatibility. This new version, CrossManager V2024.4, highlights Datakit's expertise of 30-plus years' experience in the conversion of 2D, 3D B-Rep, product and manufacturing information (PMI)/ functional dimensioning and tolerancing (FD&T) metadata and mesh representations.

With its new 2024.4 version, Datakit improves upon 2D, PMI / FD&T data retrieval.

Get more reading capabilities:

• 2D dimensions data of Catia V5 models or assemblies, as well as the support of extension lines, breaks or moveable datum targets, or the handling of different ranges of tables

• Inventor parts with model state (configuration), i.e., for design offices the export of the file in a PDF format will be a solution to evaluate different alternatives of a component, while using CrossManager.

• Images from CreoParametric (2D) drawings and PMIs (as well as their attributes) from CreoView files.

Enhancements have been implemented to make it easier to read metadata and attributes (materials, masses, user data, etc.) from CATIA V5, 3DEXPERIENCE, Solid Edge, SOLIDWORKS, NX, STEP, etc., and to reduce file exchange times.

Version 2024.4 guarantees the reading (import) of the most recent software updates:

• Fusion 2.0.19994
• JT V10.10
• NX series 2406 (till 2406.3000) 
• Parasolid: until V37.0

And export files to the following: 

• CATIA V5-6R2013 until V5-6R2017
• UG NX 2212
