  • 3DTascalX product information

More than a viewer, less than a CAD

A 3D data handling tool that uses Parasolid(R), the same software as 3D CAD, to enable viewing, measurement, and conversion.

FAQ Release Information

ABOUT What is 3DTascalX?

Its greatest feature is developed with the Parasolid kernel same as major 3D CAD.
Except design (modeling) functions, it has almost same functionality of CAD.
A viewer isn't enough, but don't need CAD, this software meets those requirement.

(*)Parasolid

The world's most advanced 3D geometric modeling component software.
It is used as the modeling foundation for Siemens PLM Software's NX and Solid Edge products. (From the Siemens PLM Software website)

Data Conversion

It is possible to input and output major CAD data such as CATAI, NX, Creo Parametric, SOLIDWORKS, and Inventor, as well as intermediate files such as IGES, STEP, and Parasolid. It also supports 2D data such as CATDrawing, DXF, and DWG.

High-precision measurement and 3D sketching

In addition to measuring 3D shapes, the sketch function allows you to interpolate gaps between parts and materials by drawing intersections, midpoints, offset lines, etc. Furthermore, by setting secondary coordinates, absolute and relative values ​​can be easily calculated.

Color-coded verification function

Design changes, slope angles, thickness, undercuts, heights, holes, and fillets can be color-coded by their respective values.

FEATURE Features of 3DTascalX

  • Made with Parasolid Kernel

    This software is built using the same karnel as 3D CAD, enabling high-precision measurements up to 1/100,000,000 required.

  • Bulk Conversion

    Automatic batch conversion of data is possible through folder monitoring.
    A command line interface is also available, allowing you to launch conversion from an external application.

  • Data Editing
    (Paid option)

    3D data can be edited. Surface removal, hole filling, fillet deletion/addition, taper addition, shrinkage, etc.

  • 3D annotation support

    It is possible to import dimensions, notes, view information, etc. added to 3D data in CAD. In addition, property information added to parts in CATIA and NX data can also be imported.

  • 2D drawing

    3D data can be easily developed into 2D drawings such as three-dimensional views and cross-sections. Furthermore, splines and ellipses can be output as approximate arcs. For assembly data, there is also a function to create drawings for each part at once.

  • Data Sharing
    (Paid option)

    By outputting 3D data to a dedicated free viewer or PDF, you can share the data with business partners and other departments. Data formats are available that are compatible with not only Windows, but also Android and iOS.

  • presentation

    It is possible to create video presentations by breaking down assembly data and adding motion.

USE CASES Main usage scenarios

  • Design Department

    By consolidating data conversion in 3DTascalX, CAD work doesn't need to be stopped. It also reduces running costs.

  • Production Engineering Department

    When you don't have enough CAD licenses for drawing inspection work, or when the 3D viewer you are using doesn't have enough functionality.

  • Machining Department

    You can plan and consider machining before the 2D drawings are released. Even if the drawings contain missing dimensions, you can measure them yourself without having to check with the design team or your supplier, reducing wait times.

  • Sales Department

    Easily calculate volume, surface area, mass, and maximum external dimensions. It runs smoothly on a laptop, so you can work on the go.

  • Inspection Department

    In addition to dimensional measurement, you can also set tolerances and input actual measurements to save inspection results.
    You can also set probe coordinates for 3D measuring machines.

For those who want to know more

For those who want to know more about the functions and examples of the 3DTascalX series, we have prepared videos that explain the specific usage methods and introduction effects in each business.
