Lattice Announces iXVL Publisher 3.0

Lattice Technology announced the availability of iXVL Publisher version 3.0. The new release adds templates and animation capabilities to the product, providing greater functionality and efficiency, the company says.

iXVL Publisher is a Windows application for creating 3D intelligent documents that can be linked to part/assembly data, production information and work instructions. The resulting interactive product document can then be accessed on mobile devices, such as the iPad or iPhone.

The animation feature allows mobile users to see assembly, disassembly and service procedures in action. The pre-defined templates for work instructions and part lists enable creation of these intelligent documents.

"The world is going mobile. Support of mobile consumption of 3D intelligent documents containing product data is crucial to our mission of making XVL the backbone for sharing complex product data," said Bill Barnes, general manager, Lattice Technology. "Our commitment to manufacturing companies is to make full function viewers available at no charge with a variety of options which include Apple Inc.'s mobile devices, Microsoft Excel and a Windows app. Using our products, manufacturing organizations can make their data available to the right people at the right time, giving stakeholders a number of options for consuming product data."
