Datakit Update Available

DATAKIT has improved its offering with Datakit Release 2025.1 through the performance and accuracy of its data exchange solutions for software vendors or industrial customers: 2D 3D B-Rep geometry, attributes, product manufacturing information (PMI), metadata, meshes, etc. Release 2025.1 is a continuation of the improvements enabling precision of 2D/3D data exchange.

A new QIF* version 3.0 (*quality Information framework) import capability is now available. This QIF import capability is for anyone who needs to compare quality information with design data. 3D geometric data, tolerances, PMI dimensions, assembly, attributes, and UUIDs (universally unique identifiers) are available with QIF to PDF, QIF to JT, and QIF to STEP convertors.
