CROSSCAD / PLG - OUR PLUG-INS RANGES

 CrossCad / Plg  provides integrated plug-ins for 3D modeling softwares. It can import or export different formats in the concerned software. 

•  Complete integration in hosting software
•  No need for another CAD software license
•  Update via web 
• Up-to-date with latest CAD modeling systems versions 

By essence a plug-in is linked to the software for which it was designed. It is not sufficient on its own. Consequently to use CROSSCAD/PLG users must run a license for the software on the same workstation. Plug-ins require the same environment and resources than the software.
The current demand in native interfaces is clearly rising.
DATAKIT solutions, 100% compatible with the software they are designed for, are capable of reading all native CAD files produced by the major CAD software solutions. They regularly benefit from updates to match all the latest versions integrated within the software.

Among the different plug-ins, Rhino and SolidWorks plug-ins are very popular among their user communities. Plug-ins dedicated to 3dsmax, Alibre, Opencascade and ThinkDesign are also available.

 Rhino plug-ins are based on Datakit’s topological model and fully support the new functions in Rhino 4.0 for creating and editing solids with deformation capabilities. Users enjoy all the advantages of tools that transfer native geometric data and also manage the links between these geometries, while enabling users to work from exact solids similar to those supplied by the source software. 

 For Catia V4*, the whole of the assembly in the session.session file and all the external links available in the part file (.session) are displayed. This enables users to access the file and the ditto.
Special attention has also been given to improving control of entity positioning in different coordinate systems, processing visible and masked entities, and the choice of filters. 

 Datakit’s SolidWorks plug-ins, with their unique depth of capability, have become favourite of the SolidWorks community. These tools enable users to transfer a wealth of native data: 2D, 3D, geometric, topological, attributes, construction history, FD&T and Features with a wide choice of control parameters addressing specific user needs (choice of coordinate system, entity filtering, etc.) Users have all the assembly tree preview functions to help and choose the level at which they want to open the elements they are interested in. Different filters are also available.
