By Design World Staff | March 11, 2009

Datakit recently announced new software releases that support Catia V5 and NX platforms. The plug-ins and stand-alone interfaces read native format Catia V5 2D and 3D into DXF, IGES, STEP, ACIS, Parasolid, 3DsMax, Alibre, Inventor, Opencascade, Robcad, Rhino, SolidWorks or ThinkDesign. Updates are available for the data export products from Inventor, SolidWorks, or Rhino to Catia V5.
