BOMBAY , India , February
23, 2005 - Geometric Software Solutions (NSE: GEOMETRIC),
a leader in product lifecycle management (PLM) services and
technologies, and CoCreate Software GmbH today announced the
release of eDrawingsT Professional for OneSpace Designer.
The announcement marking the first of a series of products
to be released is a result of Geometric signing a license
agreement with CoCreate Software GmbH whereby eDrawings lays
the foundation for lightweight viewing
of CAD designs across all CoCreate products.
With this agreement,
designers can now save their CoCreate CAD
designs in the eDrawings format . With lightweight viewing
formats like eDrawings, 3D CAD design data can reach beyond
the engineering team to manufacturing, procurement, marketing,
and even suppliers and customers. Each can see engineering
models in eDrawings and then offer expertise in design reviews.
Product information
is available at http://www.cocreate.com/eDrawings.
"For every seat of
CAD in a company, 10 or more people exist who can reuse 3D
CAD design data or help support product development", said
William M. Gascoigne, CoCreate CEO. "Now that designers can
easily publish eDrawings from directly within Designer Modeling,
our customers can expect better value from their CAD designs
because they can easily collaborate with everyone involved
in the product."
"I am delighted CoCreate
has chosen eDrawings to create a platform for superior lightweight
viewing capabilities in CoCreate's products", said Pramod
Rao, Business Head Collaboration products, Geometric. "This
partnership extends a richer user experience and superior
visualization features to CoCreate's customers. Geometric
and CoCreate are committed to developing a complete, tightly
integrated suite of products within the OneSpace environment
for rapid product development and engineering collaboration."
Currently eDrawings
supports AutoCAD
®, CATIA
® V5, UG
17, 18 & NX®, Autodesk
Inventor ® Series, Pro/ENGINEER
®, Pro/ENGINEER
Wildfire ®, and SolidWorks® software.
Availability
eDrawings is now available
with version 13.01 of OneSpace Designer. CoCreate offers two
forms of eDrawings:
Basic
Available for all
users of Designer Modeling. Use the basic eDrawings format
to share 2D and 3D CAD designs. Unlike CAD files, eDrawings
files are compact and easy to email. Typically, an eDrawings
file is more than 90% smaller than its CAD counterpart. But
unlike other formats such as PDF and TIF, eDrawings are highly
interactive, so recipients can actually experience designs
in 3D.
Professional
Available as a separate
add on. Use the professional module to produce inspection-
and review-enabled eDrawings, and to add markup, comment,
measure, and dynamic cross-sectioning to your eDrawings. Pricing
information is available from your local CoCreate reseller
or account representative.
With eDrawings
Professional, you can:
Share
product designs with eDrawings and collaborate with your
extended teams.
Receive feedback on
CAD design data from an unlimited number of recipients.
Manage, track, and
merge comments from different team members.
Examine internal details
of parts and assemblies using dynamic cross sectioning.
Measure the geometry
in part, assembly, and drawing files when dimensions are absent.
Or, disable the measurement feature and protect your sensitive
design data.

About CoCreate
CoCreate develops 3D
CAD and collaboration software for manufacturers and their
project teams who need work done today, not tomorrow.
Our mechanical CAD
product, Designer Modeling, is for designers who need freedom
to create and change 3D designs without misunderstandings
or delay. Model Manager, a data management product, is for
teams who can't afford to work on the wrong revision of a
3D CAD model or 2D drawing when creating assemblies. OneSpace.net
collaboration software is for project teams who are overwhelmed
by the complexity of a design process that stretches across
sites, contractors, or outsourced teams.
We help teams design
products, manage CAD data, and share ideas so they can reach
their time-to-market goals.
CoCreate can be found
in more than 30 countries and on the Web at http://www.cocreate.com.
