Theorem’s latest Visualize 3D supports SolidWorks 2018

Theorem Solutions is releasing the latest version (21.3) of its Visualize 3D SolidWorks-JT product. V21.3 supports SolidWorks 2016, 2017 and 2018, along with JT 10. Features and enhancements in the release include the use of ‘Save As’ from within SolidWorks to create JT output, providing the user with a consistent method of generating output from within SolidWorks.

Theorem’s Visualize 3D products are aimed at creating visualisation data for users of digital mock-up, virtual reality or desktop applications. Using JT with additional 3D PMI data as part of a model-based definition (MBD) process allows the user to reduce the overall design costs associated with the creation of conventional 2D drawings.

Sharing SolidWorks data using the neutral ISO standard JT format permits organisations to protect the IP of their designs while allowing users to explore the shape, and more easily understand the 3D definition. IP protection can be enhanced by restricting the JT representation to be tessellated data only.

Enabling SolidWorks users to create high-quality JT files allows them to share JT data with customers and suppliers, facilitating collaboration.

SolidWorks and JT data can now be further utilised in augmented, mixed and virtual reality by using Theorem’s Visualization Experiences app.
