CADDS 5 Data Exchange

Supporting multi-CAD design and data exchange is a fact of life in today’s extended enterprises. CADDS 5 meets this challenge with scalable solutions that can be tailored for specific project requirements. You can also leverage PTC’s unique, powerful, bidirectional Associated Topology Bus (ATB), which provides associativity with Pro/ENGINEER and other CAD systems. CADDS 5 data exchange capabilities help reduce errors, increase quality, and improve multi-CAD design efficiency.

Benefits

• Improve your multi-CAD design efficiency and reuse by leveraging legacy or other non-CADDS 5 data for your designs
• Update your designs faster using associative data exchange with ATB to CATIA and Unigraphcis via Pro/ENGINEER ATB exchanges remain associative to the original model- so any changes can drive updates in the associated model
• Multi-task and improve productivity using CADDS Centric ATB. You can import/export large designs and continue to use CADDS 5 for other modeling tasks while the import/export processing occurs in the background
• Leverage bidirectional IGES support for parts and assemblies with specialized tools such as SET and VDA
• Import/export high level modeling data for accurate input to downstream applications
