Kubotek3D Kicks off Multi-Platform Program for CAD File Viewing

Kubotek3D, developer of precision geometry software technology, is debuting its new K-Display View software. Kubotek’s K-Display View software is a new multi-platform program for CAD file viewing built on the universal CAD architecture of the new Kubotek Kosmos 3D framework.

The K-Display View software is the first Kubotek3D release available on Windows, Mac and Linux, and the iOS and Android mobile platforms and replaces the Kubotek Spectrum multi-CAD viewer software introduced in 2005. The software also provides a streamlined user interface and fast operation.

“CAD applications are expensive, and in many cases, it’s unnecessary for all members of a team to have individual licenses for full versions of the software,” says Yoko Nakamoto, CEO of Kubotek USA. “Kubotek’s K-Display View software is an engineering-grade, ‘one-stop shop’ program that enables users to view CAD files of all types without the need for any additional tools, resources, or licenses.”

The K-Display View software requires no additional CAD software or internet connection, enabling users to:

  • read-only open the latest versions of files from the most commonly used CAD programs like SolidWorks, AutoCAD, PTC Creo, Siemens NX, CATIA V5/V4, and neutral formats such as IGES, STEP, Parasolid X_T, ACIS SAT, and STL;
  • measure any size, distance, area or volume of solids;
  • modify display using pan, zoom, rotate and render functions; and
  • print, create image and PDF files.
