Simply put Inovate V8 is "The Fastest and Easiest Way to Conceptualize in 3D"; the preferred solution for users who need a more productive way to communicate their 3D concepts with others throughout the product life cycle chain.
Inovate V8 bridges the gap between today's viewer technology and a full blown CAD seat.
It is perfectly suited for situations where 3D design concepts have to be verified prior to being committed to a formal detail design process.
It allows the quick exploration of 3D design concepts, and the communication of those ideas through photo-realistic images and realistic motion animations as part of the collaborative process.
Its dual kernel (ACIS and Parasolid) architecture and support for CATIA V5 and Pro/E Granite translators make it the perfect collaboration tool, for a price less than most people pay for just a single translator.
Some of the key advantages of using Inovate are the following:.
* Ease-Of-Use - Whether you are working with models, creating a rendering or doing an animation, the same basic concepts of drag and drop, right mouse property access and handles are utilized throughout, making Inovate the easiest and most cost effective 3D design conceptualization tool available.
It is based on the same award winning user interface technology as IronCAD.
INOVATE allows casual users to design fast and effectively without concerning themselves with constraints, parametrics and feature trees mandated by today's leading systems.
* Design Conceptualization - From concept, through detail design, to unpredictable pre/post production changes, Inovate is the first new modeling architecture that can effectively be used throughout a products entire life cycle.
It is a product that allows true Creative Design exploration and verification at each stage of the product development process.
* Design Visualization - The integration of powerful, high-end visualization and animation technologies into the core of Inovate makes the entire design process faster, more productive, and easier to understand.
* Design Communication - Inovate supports a rich set of data translators (IGES, STEP, ACIS, Parasolid, CATIA V4-V5, Pro/E Granite, STL, and more) that allow it to exchange data with all of today's leading CAD systems.
Once in Inovate, the user can FULLY edit the model data (not just a subset of recognized features) enabling true upstream and downstream design collaboration.
This makes Inovate the perfect desktop companion for your existing CAD tools.
The design visualization, collaboration features and ease-of-use makes Inovate the perfect tool for Engineering, Marketing, Sales and Training to illustrate and communicate product features either through the use of animations or through directly importing 3D design models into marketing and sales brochures.
Inovate's versatile use model enables the verification and communication of 3D models beyond the typical design engineering community.
"Inovate V8 offers the 3D capabilities of today's leading CAD systems, photo-realistic rendering, animation and translators, all at low cost" explains Shaun Murphy, VP of Sales and Marketing at IronCAD.
"Its functionality and price point make it the perfect complimentary solution for companies that would like to expand the use of 3D while still maintaining a master 2D design process."
