1 CAD Comparison and Related Technology For Enhanced Digital Workflows Thursday, November 16, 2017 Annalise Suzuki Director of Technology & Engagement

2 Elysium Company Intro 30+ Years of CAD Expertise Strong Partnerships with CAD Vendors 3D Data Expertise: Translation BREP, MBD, Features Geometry Healing Quality Management Validation Simplification Reverse Engineering / Point Cloud Rendering Off-the-Shelf, OEM, & Migration Services

3 3D Data Expertise: Interoperability Model Quality in all Applications Translation Migration (Feature-Based Translation) Healing Quality Check Simplification Solid Enveloping Validation

4 Steps in a model-based lifecycle Create MBD CAD model with 3D annotations and metadata Release Translate With required quality standard Custom quality checks Derivatives for delivery or downstream consumption High-fidelity translations, packaging Validate Ensure derivatives equal released creation MBD validations Inspect Quality at the digital level Reverse engineering

5 3D Data Architecture Elysium Neutral File Style & Appearance Geometry B-rep, Polygon, Point Cloud Simplification Healing Source CAD Model Product Data Quality Product Structure Quality Stamp Assembly Tree Source API Design Intent & Manufacturing Req. 3D Annotations PMI / FTA Attributes Quality Check Design Rule Layer, Group View, Capture View, Capture Target API Translation Validation

6 Product Data Quality (PDQ) Check/ Verification Elysium offers 78 PDQ check items! Customize checking criteria Check against multiple criteria Standards Customer Req. Downstream CAD Systems (Modeling Kernel) MIL STD 31000A OEM 1 Analysis NX LOTAR OEM 2 Tool Path CATIA OEM 3 Creo Solidworks Inventor

7 Accurate Geometry Error Checking Elysium provides Product Data Quality (PDQ) checking to assure 100% high fidelity models for an enterprise. Tiny Face Gap Tiny Edge & Gap

8 Sophisticated Geometry Healing Elysium s geometry healing capability creates perfect geometry for assured downstream consumption. Face extension for gap filling Tiny face removal and edge adjustment Tiny edge removal and face extension

9 Healing: Various CAD Kernels

10 PDQ Report in 3D PDF Easy reference for native edits to master model.

11 Mold Manufacturing Check Automatically detect non-manufacturable or costly product defects. ELYSIUM original 10 Check Items for Plastic Parts. Sharp Edge Area Detection Undercut Area Detection

12 Data Translation Support Entities Geometry Product Structure PMI/FTA Attributes Features Sketches Constraints Associative 2D Drawings CAD platforms CATIA V4 / V5 / V6 NX Creo Parametric SolidWorks Inventor Neutral/Viewable STEP JT Parasolid ACIS STL OBJ 3D PDF HTML IGES

13 PMI Translation Translation of geometry, annotations and attributes Full Annotated 3D Drawing Translation Support both native PMI/FTA translation and appearance translation. Keep associativity between annotation and element. Flexible Mapping of PMI/FTA and Attribute Enable to map specific annotation and attribute to others to recover non-supported entities at destination CAD. Map spot weld point of CATIA V5 to user attribute of specific parts of Inventor which are automatically created as spot point symbol through translation.

14 Feature-based Translation Feature-based 3D data translation maintains design intent and enables modification by features. Full Automatic Translation Automatically extract feature tree from source CAD, map the feature tree to destination CAD, and re-build 3D model at destination CAD with the mapped feature tree. Hybrid Translation of Feature and Geometry 1. Translate representation of fabricated material as geometry and definition of machining feature as feature tree. 2. Recover un-supported features as B-Rep translation. Support sketch and assembly constraints. Support feature mapping capability to recover un-supported features of destination CAD. B-Rep. Feature

15 Validation of MBD Data Quickly identify differences between 2 files Reports available via XML, DiffViewer, HTML, and 3DPDF

16 Robust Validation Solutions & Reports Validate: Translated derivative Engineering changes CAD Version upgrades XML DiffViewer HTML Customize reports: Pass/fail criteria Downstream usability Multiple use cases 3DPDF

17 Data Packages

18 Geometry Simplification Simplify for CAE, DMU, or other downstream processes Feature Recognition and Simplification Automatically recognize geometric features like fillets or holes and remove them. Recognize Remove Solid Envelope Fill inside of assembly model to create a solid model for size reduction and protect IP. Surface Extraction Extract the outline of the exterior parts or interior parts.

19 Produce Part & Inspect Reverse Engineering Validate scanned data against design data Point Cloud Input Point Cloud Function Generate Polygon Reverse Engineering Function Auto Segmentation or Fillet Recognition Generate Brep QIF is on roadmap

20 Flexible Enterprise Automated Solutions Execute multiple processes in a single scenario Automated processing CAD file Go! PDQ Check Translate PDQ Check Validate Complete Internal standard Derivative formats Customer requirement PDQ Report PDQ Report (derivatives) Validation report

21 ASFALIS Launch options: Command Line Desktop Controller Web Portal Viewer Checker DEK CADdoctor Optimizer PDQ Checker Geometry Simplifier Target Models Geometry Validator Assembly Editor Source Models Collision Checker Attribute Editor Reports DEK: Data Exchange Kernel

22 CADdoctor Packaged software for geometry PDQ checking, geometry healing, data translation, and geometry optimization. Supported formats include: CATIA V4 CATIA V5 I-DEAS NX (Unigraphics) Creo CoCreate SolidWorks Autodesk Inventor Mechanical Desktop ACIS Parasolid JT, etc. Advanced interactive healing and pre-processing

24 CADdoctor: safety net to achieve 100% If the either model does not pass the PDQ criteria, use CADdoctor for efficient healing to bring the model to compliance. Failed to Pass Now Passes Heal

25 Guided Healing Guide CADdoctor s famous guided healing is so easy to use; it does most of the work for the user! Navigation Panel If you don t know which icon is appropriate, you can check it out on the Guide dialogue. You can choose a healing method from this dialogue.
