Kubotek3D Rebrands as Kubotek Kosmos 

Change reflects Focus on its next-generation software technology.

Kubotek3D, engineering software division of Kubotek USA, Inc., will now do business under the name Kubotek Kosmos, effective immediately. The Massachusetts-based team continues to develop and support core geometric technology and end-user applications targeted at improving efficiency of 3D data use in manufacturing, according to the company.

The architecture of the Kubotek Kosmos 3D framework provides advances in multi-threading, management of precision, and multi-platform support. The Kosmos name relates to the astronomy-based function names and terminology used throughout the programming interface, which allows users to define and analyze geometric objects in an unlimited 3D space. 

The new 3D framework was used internally as the foundation of the second generation of Kubotek interoperability products, which aid synchronization of CAD data across manufacturing supply chains. These solutions use the universal CAD database of the Kubotek Kosmos 3D framework, which contains structures to match all 3D geometric definitions across all major MCAD and international standard databases.

“The successful implementations of our new technology have provided us increased confidence and assurance that the future of our company will be based on it," says Ram Eswaran, Kubotek Kosmos CTO/COO. "Aligning our identity with this technology is a natural next step.”

The new technology is also used by Kubotek KeyCreator CAD programs to support data translation and modeling features. “Continuing to serve manufacturing and design customers with our KeyCreator CAD software, as we have over the last 18 years, remains a key part of our business. This work is the basis for valuable insights into and understanding of the technology needed to reliably read precise data from any engineering software,” adds Eswaran.
