Hexagon offers dedicated solutions that eliminate the links between varying software suppliers and the solid-to-surface or CAD CAM geometry conversions required by traditional systems.
VISI Modelling – Powerful Surface Modelling & Solid Modelling Software
VISI Modelling is the foundation of all VISI products and provides a robust and powerful solid and surface modelling system based around the industry standard Parasolid® kernel. Combined with Hexagon’s surface technology, model analysis and 2D design, VISI Modelling offers complete flexibility to construct, edit or repair the most complex 3D data.
Extensive range of CAD interfaces. VISI can work directly with Parasolid, IGES, CATIA, Creo, UG-NX, STEP, Solid Works, Solid Edge, Inventor, ACIS, DXF, DWG, JT Open, STL and VDA files. The extensive range of translators ensures that users can work with data from almost any supplier. The ability to skip corrupt records during the import process provides a platform from where the most inconsistent data can be managed. Very large files can be handled with ease and companies working with complex designs will benefit from the ease with which their customer’s CAD data can be manipulated.
VISI Machining 2D – 2D machining toolpaths from wireframe & solid geometry
VISI Machining 2D provides a practical, intuitive and simple solution for CNC programming including 4 and 5 axis indexing. Knowledge based feature recognition will automatically select features directly on the solid geometry and create reliable milling and drill cycle toolpaths.
VISI Analysis – Solutions for the validation & preparation of model geometry
When working with imported data, the quality of the model is an important consideration. Finding potential problems at an early stage within the project will greatly simplify the task of the designer and generate huge time savings further along the design process.
