SYCODE launches four AutoCAD 3D interoperability add-ons for Alibre Design
Panaji - 18th Oct, 2007 - SYCODE today launched AutoCAD DWG and
DXF file import and export add-ons for Alibre Design.
"Alibre
Design already has the ability to read and write AutoCAD DWG and DXF
files", explains Deelip
Menezes, owner of SYCODE. “However,
this
ability is severely limited to 2D DWG/DXF files only. When importing
DWG/DXF files, Alibre Design ignores 3D objects such as solids, bodies
and regions and creates a 2D drawing document from the 2D curves present
in the file. Moreover, Alibre Design cannot export parts or assemblies
to DWG/DXF files. It can only create DWG/DXF files from its own 2D
drawings. This makes 3D DWG/DXF files pretty much useless to Alibre
Design users. Our AutoCAD 3D interoperability add-ons for Alibre Design
are designed to remove this limitation and give Alibre Design users the
ability to read and write 3D DWG/DXF files."
The AutoCAD 3D interoperability add-ons for Alibre Design are:
(1) DWG Import for Alibre Design - DWG import add-on
(2) DXF Import for Alibre Design - DXF import add-on
(3) DWG Export for Alibre Design - DWG export add-on
(4) DXF Export for Alibre Design - DXF export add-on
The DWG/DXF import add-ons read 3D solid geometry from DWG/DXF files and
creates corresponding solid bodies in an Alibre Design part document.
The DWG/DXF export add-ons reads solid bodies in an Alibre Design part
or assembly document and creates corresponding 3D solid geometry objects
in a DWG/DXF file.
These add-ons can read and write DWG and DXF files up to the latest
version of AutoCAD.
The AutoCAD 3D interoperability add-ons are priced at 195 EUR each and
are available as
fully functional 10 day/run trials. The software comes with detailed documentation in the form of a compiled HTML
help file which contains a step-by-step tutorial to get the end user
started in the shortest possible time.

downloads can be found at
