FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SYCODE launches nine new add-ons for Alibre Design
Panaji, Goa - 31st Jul, 2007 - SYCODE today launched nine new
file import and export add-ons for Alibre Design.
"Alibre
Design is slowly but steadily making inroads into the CAD software
industry. These add-ons are part of our effort to help Alibre Design
communicate with other CAD applications and processes in an efficient
manner”, explains Deelip
Menezes, owner of SYCODE. “We have been receiving requests from
Alibre Design users related to reading and writing of mesh formats. We
are glad that we could fulfill some of them.”
The
nine add-ons include
five import and four export add-ons. The file import add-ons are:
(1)
STL Import for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to read Stereolithography (.stl) files. This is particularly
useful to Rapid Prototyping service beureaus who wish to modify STL
files and do not have access to the original NURBS model. STL Import
for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/stl_import_ad/index.htm.
(2)
OBJ Import for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to read Wavefront (.obj) files. Users of other CAD software such
as Maya can export their models to the OBJ file format which can then be
brought into Alibre Design using this add-on. OBJ Import for Alibre
Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/obj_import_ad/index.htm.
(3)
3DS Import for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to read 3D Studio (.3ds) files. 3DS is a common file format used
to web sites that offer 3D model data on the internet. Using this add-on
users will be able to get this data into Alibre Design. 3DS Import
for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/3ds_import_ad/index.htm.
(4)
3DM Import for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to read mesh data from Rhinoceros (.3dm) files. Alibre Design
has a 3DM file import option. However meshes in a 3DM file are ignored
across the translation. This add-on removes this limitation so that
users are able to read even mesh data into Alibre Design. 3DM Import
for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/3dm_import_ad/index.htm.
(5)
PLT Import for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to read HPGL Plot (.plt) files. This add-on comes in handy to
read legacy CAD data which is available as plot files only. Moreover the
PLT file format is is sometimes used as a file translation format
between various CAD applications. PLT Import for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/plt_import_ad/index.htm.
The file export add-ons are:
(1)
OBJ Export for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to write Wavefront (.obj) files. Users of other CAD software
such as Maya can efficiently collaborate with Alibre Design users using
this add-on. OBJ Export for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/obj_export_ad/index.htm.
(2)
3DS Export for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design the
ability to write 3D Studio (.3ds) files. Rendering and animation
software have the ability to read 3DS file. Users can use this add-on to
share their design data with such software without having to part with
the NURBS model. 3DS Export for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/3ds_export_ad/index.htm.
(3) 3DM Export for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design
the ability to write Rhinoceros (.3dm) files. Although Alibre Design can
read 3DM files, it cannot write 3DM files. This add-on removes this
limitation by enabling Alibre Design to write out mesh data to 3DM
files. 3DM Export for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/3dm_export_ad/index.htm.
(4) DXF Export for Alibre Design: This add-on gives Alibre Design
the ability to write AutoCAD (.dxf) files. Alibre Design has a DXF file
export option, but it is limited to 2D drawings only. This add-on allows
Alibre Design users to export 3D data as polyface meshes, 3d faces,
lines or points in an AutoCAD DXF file. OBJ Export for Alibre Design is priced at 195 USD and can be
downloaded from
http://www.sycode.com/products/dxf_export_ad/index.htm.
