Elevating 3D CAD Collaboration with Suppliers

July 16, 2024

Secure and traceable access to up-to-Date 3D CAD models without downloads

3DViewStation now streamlines collaboration in the manufacturing industry by offering a secure, real-time visualization and discussion platform for 3D CAD models. Available in the WebViewer version, users have a fast, secure, and traceable process. They have no long need to download software or CAD data.

Using traditional data exchange portals, collaborators must download and then review CAD data. In addition to delays, companies can lose control over data distribution. Licenses for CAD systems or CAD visualization software can also add up.

3DViewStation WebViewer addresses these challenges by providing a temporary link for data access. Within seconds, approved users can view, analyze, and comment on CAD models.

Craig Impastato, U.S. Sales Director for KISTERS, explains, “Users can make annotations in separate views and saved them on the server, which allows users to track data access and updates. Most importantly, no data is transferred to the end device. Users can protect data and control downloads for production needs.”

The WebViewer can be integrated into standard data exchange portals for large projects, enhancing security and tracking while avoiding file downloads.

KISTERS VisShare, a simple collaboration solution, allows team members from different departments or different companies to efficiently access project data.

The versatility of 3DviewStation extends beyond supplier collaboration, serving PLM environments, product configurators, spare parts catalogs, predictive and preventive maintenance, archiving solutions, and machine interfaces.
