Extensible CAD Technologies has released a new version InspectionXpert for CATIA V5 that introduces support for 3D models in addition to the 2D drawings previously supported.
“Many of our InspectionXpert for CATIA customers have standardized exclusively on 3D models throughout their design and manufacturing processes,” says Jeffery Cope, president of Extensible CAD Technologies. “Adding the ability to balloon CATIA 3D models is critical to streamlining our clients’ quality inspection processes.”
InspectionXpert for CATIA V5 inspection report automation software replaces the manual ballooning of CAD drawings and files, and the manual typing of dimensions into Excel for First Article and In Process inspection reports. It is a Dassault Systemes Partner Product. It is also available in versions that read PDF and TIFF files as well as SolidWorks, Pro/ENGINEER, AutoCAD, and Solid Edge drawings.
