Sacramento, CA - January 31, 2025 – From the automotive industry to the defense sector, 3DViewStation has become an essential tool across numerous markets. Its versatility and performance enable users to tackle even the most complex challenges. Whether visualizing massive 3D CAD assemblies, optimizing intricate production systems, or integrating with innovative machine control interfaces, 3DViewStation delivers customized solutions for every challenge. At the same time, it unlocks new possibilities in specialized fields such as after-sales service and technical documentation.
The automotive industry faces the challenge of managing increasingly shorter development cycles while dealing with rising complexity. 3DViewStation enables lightning-fast loading, measuring, and analysis of 3D CAD vehicle assemblies with thousands of components. Technical publications and work instructions can be efficiently created and shared directly with shop floor production and business partners. As a result, the software not only accelerates decision-making but also significantly reduces time-to-market.
The aerospace industry, known for its extremely high standards of safety and precision, also benefits from the software’s capabilities. Effortless handling of massive CAD assemblies allows for advanced analyses, such as wall thickness evaluations, determination of draft angles, and, of course, geometric comparisons of different versions and variants using 3DViewStation.
Massive datasets with millions of components play a crucial role in mechanical engineering, plant construction, and shipbuilding. In these environments, 3DViewStation, in combination with the batch tool Kisters Automated Server - KAS, provides an effective solution: Original data is automatically converted into the optimized 3DVS format, drastically reducing file sizes and loading times. This ensures seamless handling of even the largest assemblies, which is critical for efficiency in these industries.
In the defense sector, where security and precision are paramount, 3DViewStation provides reliable 3D CAD visualizations. It enables the efficient development of complex projects and ensures the secure handling of sensitive data to meet the industry’s stringent standards.
Beyond traditional industries, 3DViewStation unlocks enormous potential. Technical documentation and precise assembly instructions can be effortlessly derived from CAD models, while 3D and 2D CAD data can be clearly visualized in spare parts catalogs. In after-sales service, the software helps reduce downtime by optimizing maintenance and repair processes through the use of 3D models.
A particular highlight is the ability to integrate 3DViewStation into machine control systems (Human-Machine Interface, HMI), where it serves as a powerful visualization tool directly from within the machine. While conventional HMI systems often rely on text-based displays and sensor data, 3DViewStation puts the human operator at the center. With precise and intuitive 3D representations, users gain a clear visual overview of machine components, allowing them to quickly identify issues. Direct access to operational data simplifies maintenance tasks, while spare parts can be seamlessly identified and ordered. This makes machine control more intuitive, efficient, and user-friendly.
KISTERS 3DViewStation is continuously enhanced in response to customer needs and requirements. It is available as a Desktop, HTML5 WebViewer and VR Edition product versions plus the online collaboration tool VisShare.
