XVL Studio Pro

XVL Studio Pro is a high-end application dedicated to rapid exploration and validation of designs, scalable to very large data sets.

The application offers such advanced functions as automated interference and clearance checking of complex assemblies and display of results in a spreadsheet format, integrated 2D/3D cross-sectional views including profile display of interfering parts, and all the capabilities of XVL Studio Basic and XVL Studio Standard.

This application is ideal for design review by digital mock-up and otherwise exploring digital models across the extended enterprise by non-CAD trained personnel.

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

Add dimensions/annotations/animations to 3D data.

Our Clients Say...

“As a result of XVL Studio Pro, the man-time for interference checking was reduced by about two thirds.” - Toyota

Key Benefits

• Design review via digital mockup - enables resolution of form/fit/function design issues. Static and dynamic detection of interference and clearance problems, perform measurements, save section images, and even export information to spreadsheets for sharing with other team members globally.
• Improve Communication by creating sophisticated 3D technical animations for assembly instructions, manufacturing, training, IETMs, and digital manuals. Drive the design review process with automatically created illustrated spreadsheets of design and manufacturing issues.
• Drive innovation and collaboration with productivity boosting process planning, multiple views, and saved snapshot capabilities.
• 'Practical' Lifecycle Management - use XVL Studio Pro for sophisticated design and manufacturing review with digital mockup.
• Solve the Multi-CAD problem - advanced snap assembly of models from different CAD systems to automatically create new XVL files.

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
