Research meta data or structural information via the client mask of SmarTeam or 3DExperience, and visualize the result quickly in 3DviewStation. Users don't just want to read text-based descriptions of a product - they want to be able to see a 3D rendering of the product, and that extra fast. This is where the integration of 3DViewStation comes into play.
One user mode is to run 3DViewStation integrated inside the UI of SmarTeam, leveraging its high performance 3D-viewing capabilities, allowing users to view multi-GB-assemblies in seconds. The second user mode is to open the CAD data directly into the full 3DViewStation application (Desktop or WebViewer) offering access to the whole range of functions for advanced analysis, 3D compare and Digital MockUp (DMU). The integration finally supports an export of 3D CAD data to 3D-PDF with support of templates, which might include metadata and a company logo. Finally 3DViewStation WebViewer has been integrated into 3DExperience, incl. a powerful caching solution, which ensures, that always the lastest versions of even hughe assemblies will be loaded in just seconds.
