affordable & universalmany 3D/2D - Interfaces
The 3D-Tool CAD-Viewer is a universal and user-friendly tool for evaluating and coordinating 3D designs throughout the company.
The 3D-NativeCAD Converter is a professional interface for converting and exchanging 3D data with customers and suppliers.
Share your models with all team members. The Free Viewer intensifies the cooperation. It's free, supports 3D-Tool DDD, STL and 3MF files, and offers all 3D-Tool measurement and analysis functions.
More Info
3D-Tool reads more than twenty 3D file formats from STL to STEP to CATIA and Siemens NX.
Check 3D models without an expensive CAD system:
With 3D-Tool you print drawings true to scale, edit or delete drawing elements and add dimensions and markups.
The 3D-Tool CAD-Viewer supports 2D drawings in the formats DXF, DWG, HPGL and, in the Premium version, also drawings from CATIA and SolidWorks.
Use 3D-Tool to coordinate constructions in the company as well as with customers and suppliers.
3D-Tool publishes models as a directly executable EXE file or as a DDD file for the 3D-Tool Free Viewer - both can be used free of charge and without restrictions, including measurement and analysis.
The 3D-CAD-Viewer also creates 3D PDF files for the widely used Adobe Acrobat Reader. In this way, 3D models also reach users who do not want or are not allowed to install special software.
With just a few clicks you can create and save detailed 3D views of your models for presentations and meetings as well as for printouts and images.
Parts and assemblies can be hidden, made transparent or shown in different render modes. Cross-sections and exploded views can be combined and even animated.
3D-Tool also generates user-defined reports (BOM, model overview, dimensions, weights) in PDF, RTF and HTML format.
With 3D-Tool you accelerate and simplify the estimation of manufacturing costs and the creation of offers.
The model information tool with material database provides dimensions, surface, volume, weight and center of mass of parts and assemblies quickly and easily. 3D-Tool Premium also supports the display of product manufacturing information (PMI).
You do not need any CAD knowledge or lengthy training for the detailed measurement of constructions.
An intelligent preselection of suitable measurement references helps you with all measurements when you move the mouse pointer over the model.
3D-Tool offers measuring tools for distances, angles, radii, wall thicknesses and free spaces. The viewer also calculates the center or mass, the size of faces, the length of contour lines, and the minimum bounding box of parts.
You do not need an expensive CAD workstation to estimate the production costs, e.g. in toolmaking.
Use 3D-Tool analysis and information:
3D-Tool Premium offers interfaces not only for common 3D files such as STEP, JT and IGES but also for native CAD files directly out of CATIA, Siemens NX, SolidWorks, SolidEdge, Creo, AutoCAD, Inventor and Rhino.
The option to access the graphic visualization data in native CAD files, allow the 3D-Tool Viewer to open very large assemblies on common personal computers.
Use 3D-Tool Premium as a universal and flexible interface between your CAD program and the different format requirements of your customers and suppliers.
The 3D-NativeCAD Converter allows the conversion of 3D models from the most important CAD systems into the 3D exchange formats STEP, IGES, Parasolid X_T, VDA and SAT.
In the three license versions Basic, Advanced and Premium, the 3D-Tool Viewer always offers all functions for measuring and analyzing 3D models and 2D drawings.
All models can be published in the 3D-Tool format, as an EXE file and as a 3D PDF. The export formats available include STL, OBJ, 3DS and VRML.
The three licenses Basic, Advanced and Premium differ in the supported import interfaces and the 3D-NativeCAD Converter can only be used with a Premium license.
With a basic license, the viewer opens simple 3D visualization formats such as STL, 3DS, OBJ, PLY and VRML, as well as 2D drawings in DWG, DXF and HPGL formats.
With an Advanced license, the 3D exchange formats STEP, IGES, VDA, SAT and Parasolid can be opened.
With a premium license you get high-performance interfaces and the 3D-NativeCAD converter. The premium interfaces support native 3D models from CATIA, Siemens NX, Creo, Inventor, SolidEdge, SolidWorks, Rhino and AutoCAD, as well as the 3D exchange formats STEP, IGES, VDA, SAT, Parasolid and JT.
"I use 3D-Tool to collaborate with suppliers and customers. Especially exporting an exe file with custom views and notes is very useful..."
Erik Raun Jensen, Danfoss Electronic Controls & Sensors, Denmark
"Collaboration locally, nationally, and internationally is critical to developing successful products. 3D-Tool facilitates fast, efficient, detailed collaboration..."
TPaul Schwendinger, Honeywell, USA
"Regarding 3D-Tool - we believe it is a great product and I was recommending it to our business partners..."
Constantin Tiba, Presstran Industries Cosma International, USA
"Your product is easier to work, than any other viewing program that I have tried. It is as simple as a Word Pad document, but with the translation power of most high end cad programs. Our Program Managers, some whom do not come from an engineering schooling background, have almost no learning curve."
Michael Carpenter, Baytech Plastic Inc., USA
"I have used a number of tools similar in concept to your tool. All have offered much and delivered little and yet your tool is quite exceptional...please keep up the good work."
Colin Gradwell , Knorr-Bremse Rail Systems Limited, United Kingdom
"It is the maximum charm of this tool that three-dimensional design information can be easily distributed as an executable file to various people without any expertise and installation work..."
Naoki Ito, Alps Electric Co. LTD., Japan
