By DE Editors

Okino Computer Graphics (Toronto, ONT) now supports version 4.0 of the NGRAIN (Vancouver, BC) file format, with an updated exporter plug-in module for the Okino line of software products. This version of NGRAIN’s interactive 3D software tools incorporates the latest advancements in 3D virtual equipment simulations, states the release.

The Okino NGRAIN Exporter plug-in module will allow export to NGRAIN 3D Knowledge Objects (3KOs) from any application that currently supports the Okino PolyTrans converter interface and API, including the stand-alone Okino PolyTrans and NuGraf software, PolyTrans-for-MAX, PolyTrans-for-Maya,  PolyTrans-for-XSI, and other third party vendor software with integrated PolyTrans support.

NGRAIN users will be able to create version 4.0 3KOs by converting native CAD packages and file formats such as ACIS SAT, Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk AutoCAD and Mechanical Desktop, CATIA v4, CATIA v5, IGES (solids, surfaces and bounded surfaces),  Parasolid, Pro/Engineer, Rhino-3D/OpenNURBS, Solid Edge, SolidWorks, STEP, STL,  X3D, XGL, VDA-FS and many other industry standard file formats.

The new NGRAIN export converter module ships with each v4.4 copy of Okino PolyTrans and NuGraf software.
