HOOPS Exchange
Import over 30 CAD file formats into your application with the HOOPS Exchange SDK for CAD data translation, featuring fast and accurate read and write support for 2D and 3D CAD file formats including CATIA®, SOLIDWORKS®, Inventor™, Revit™, Creo®, NX™, Solid Edge® and many more, all through a single API. The HOOPS Exchange SDK is a set of C++ software libraries that enables development teams to quickly add reliable 2D and 3D CAD import and export to their applications, accessing a broad range of data including boundary representation (BREP), product manufacturing information (PMI), model tree, views, persistent IDs, styles, construction geometry, visualization and more without depending on any CAD system. Simplify CAD data import into your application and increase your 3D interoperability with fast and accurate access to over 30 CAD formats. The HOOPS Exchange API reads CAD data from popular 2D and 3D file formats and converts that data into the highly compressible file format PRC.

EnSuite-Lite
EnSuite-Lite has viewers for all commonly used CAD formats. Even better, you do not need CAD software or licenses to view any of the supported file types. Viewers are currently available for CATIA V4, CATIA V5, CATIA V6 (3dxml), solidworks, solid edge, inventor, rhino, JT, parasolid, ACIS, IGES, STEP, VDA, CGR, DWF, SketchUp, & STL. EnSuite-Lite provides user-friendly tools to obtain accurate information from all major CAD systems including measure, bounding box, foot print, model compare, and much more. Besides having viewers and productivity tools, EnSuite-Lite can export data to IGES, STEP, and 3D PDF formats. EnSuite-Lite can be used to measure the geometric entities in the CAD model. It has tools to measure distance/angle, length/radius, area/ perimeter, volume/weight, fillet/ chamfer, and much more.

SolidView
SolidView is a basic version of the software offered at $99. The product allows the user to view, rotate and print STL and SolidWorks files, and will measure SVD files (the SVD format can be created from any file opened by a user with SolidView/Pro). This allows a workgroup to easily publish files with one copy of SolidView/Pro and multiple copies of either SolidView or SolidView/Lite. The SolidView user can also edit and save SVD files. SolidView/Pro is the centerpiece product. The greatest benefit of SolidView/Pro is the ability to open native CAD files without having to own expensive CAD software. Simply purchase the specific interface(s) you need for popular CAD programs. In addition, SolidView/Pro can translate, scale, rotate, mirror, copy and combine 3D data, as well as perform complex measurements. It can publish SVD files to be opened with SolidView and SolidView/Lite. It also includes a mold analysis feature. Network licenses are available.
