Lattice Technology Inc. has released XVL System Toolkit version 3.1, an enterprise integration platform that allows digital mockup, visualization, and technical documentation workflows to be integrated within existing enterprise IT platforms such as SAP, TeamCenter, Windchill, and others.
The Toolkit is delivered as three technologies: XVL Processor, XVL Reducer, and XVL Filter. When integrated within a system, these tools are triggered to automate the creation and output of enhanced 3D manufacturing data and technical documentation, check 3D data for interferences and so on, and allow 3D data to be redacted according to predefined rules to protect IP or reduce file size.
The new update of the XVL System Toolkit allows 3D data in the XVL v.10 format to be used during automated interference checking between parts, sub assemblies, and assemblies. Another new feature is for geometry difference detection to be automated in a workflow. This is where two versions of the same 3D data are compared and visually reported to show where changes have occurred in the design. In addition, improvements to process list import and parts list export have been included.
