XVL Studio Basic

XVL Studio Basic is a full function 3D viewer with basic editing and authoring capabilities, including measurement, annotation, and cross-sectioning functions.

It has XVL data editing functions such as material/texture editing, IGES/Polygon import, and combinations of multiple XVL models.

It is ideal for entry level 3D data users.

All Studio products are available with optional upgrades for enhanced functionality including Point Cloud data import, STEP and other polygon format import, technical illustration, and more

View, measure, and annotate complex 3D models.

Key Benefits

• Drive innovation, collaboration,and communication with 3D viewing, measurement, and mark-up using ultra-compressed XVL across your extended enterprise.
• Create technical illustrations directly from 3D models using XVL Studio Basic with the Technical Illustration Option.
• 'Practical' lifecycle management - use XVL Studio Basic for full participation in the design and manufacturing process without costly CAD system deployments.
• Solve the multi-CAD problem - assemble models from different CAD systems to automatically create new XVL files.
• Additional optional modules for Technical Illustration, direct import of CATIA V4 and Parasolid files, and Point Cloud Evaluation.

Features	Benefits	Basic	Standard	Pro
Full featured viewing: Zoom, pan, rotate, measurement, annotation, texture mapping.	Full control for displaying parts, assemblies, and animation.
Re-tessellation on zoom-in.	See precise detail accurately even when zoomed-in on small parts.
Assemble parts from multiple CAD systems or files after conversion to XVL of direct import of IGES and Polygon formats.	Solves the multiple sources from different CAD systems problem.
Assembly Structure Edit: Display and edit assembly structures; flexible re- naming, regrouping, or editing of properties.	Used, for example, in matching CAD and BOM data.
Animation Definition: Define full anima-tion, and assembly/disassembly animations with multiple camera views, keyframe editing, and automated/semi-automated process animation.	Create interactive animations for assembly/disassembly instructions, maintenance instructions, on-line demos, and more.
Process Structure Edit: Display and edit process tree; flexible re- naming, regrouping, or editing of properties.	Define steps for assembly / disassembly animations.
Advanced viewing with multiple windows and snapshots.	Display multiple views simultaneously and save views for future reference and communication.
Snap In Assembly of parts or sub-assemblies.	Assemble parts easily using existing geometry.
Static and Dynamic interference checking and clearance analysis including individual parts or whole assemblies.	Evaluate designs and assembly processes taking into account interference from other parts.
Output interference and clearance results to spreadsheets and other formats.	Share results with others using standard Microsoft Office tools.
Automatically create and save 2D profiles that update in real time.	Create intersection profiles for clarity and resolution of complex design issues and save to design review reports.
Offset surfaces to modify existing geometry to increase or shrink parts.	Iterate designs for advanced interference and clearance checking and simulation of design changes.
Sophisticated cross section control: Track cross section along any edge. Output cross sections as IGES or DXF.	Enhanced inquiry of details and inspection of digital mock-ups.

Options	Benefits
Technical Illustration	Create technical illustrations automatically and export illustration files. Support for line types and formats.
Point Cloud Evaluation	Supports data input from 3D Scanners. Overlay original data and scanned data for display or edit the color map to indicate differences between data sets.
Difference	Rapidly compare different versions of the same design data and assemblies
CATIA V4 / Parasolid Import	Direct import of CATIA V4 and Parasolid models.
U3D	Direct import / export of U3D models.
STEP	Direct import /export of STEP models.
List Edit	(For Studio Basic only) Expands the functions of Studio Basic to allow editing of all lists (Parts, assemblies etc)
