It was RapidFire demo again during Aras ACE 2016 in Detroit. 5 Minutes pure live demo, no slides. Kisters was showing even large models like aircrafts on Desktop and Smartphone using 3DViewStation WebViewer – all just in seconds. Having full functionality in WebViewer like in Desktop version.

We have done a new 3DViewStation WebViewer version V2016 with a series of enhancements, described below. The new version can be tested online.

Fileformats:

• New: ST8
• New: SolidWorks 2016
• New: STEP AP 242 XML

Functions: 

• Enhanced: significantly faster rendering of large models: loadtime as 3DVS 50% reduced
• Enhanced: significantly reduced memory consumption: memory consuption reduced by 60%-70%
• Enhanced: significantly reduced 3DVS file size: by 20% -30%
• Enhanced: Client & server negotiate image / video parameters
• New: preview when creating coordinate systems
• New: preview when creating angle dimensions
• New: multi-thread rendering
• New: XML-API, for all 3DViewStation product flavours: Desktop + ActiveX + WebViewer
• New: possibility to share floating licenses between Desktop & WebViewer

We added a video to our YouTube channel, showing some of the 3DViewStation V2016.0 news.

We have done a new 3DViewStation Desktop version V2016 with a series of enhancements, described below. The new version is available for download now.

Fileformats:

• New: ST8
• New: SolidWorks 2016
• New: STEP AP 242 XML
• Font substitution for DXF, DWG, DGN

Functions:

• New: preview when creating coordinate systems
• New: preview when creating angle dimensions
• New: auto section after coordinate system creation, i.e. in center of drilling
• Enhanced: point measurement during section
• New: multi-thread rendering
• Enhanced: significantly faster rendering of large models: loadtime as 3DVS 50% reduced
• Enhanced: significantly reduced memory consumption: memory consuption reduced by 60%-70%
• Enhanced: significantly reduced 3DVS file size: by 20% -30%
• New: XML-API, for all 3DViewStation product flavours: Desktop + ActiveX + WebViewer
• New: possibility to share floating licenses between Desktop & WebViewer

We are making progress on the release of our WebViewer 2015 version.
This is a completely rewritten Browser / Cloud viewer providing these highlights:

• runs as fast as the Desktop version

• can work on native CAD files or 3DVS file format – for top performance

• provides same APIs as Desktop product

• 3D data secured: pure server side rendering

So we are breaking barriers: even mobile users now can get access to all CAD data, even with low bandwidth and large assemblies, allowing to perform same analyses as on Desktop.
