Component Providers Partnering to Expand Market for OEM CAD Translators

OAKLAND, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 09/22/05 -- Tech Soft America (TSA), the leading provider of graphics components to the CAD/CAM/CAE software industry, is extending its suite of products to include the 3D InterOp translators developed by Spatial. 3D InterOp translators provide developers with an efficient method for supporting the import/export of numerous CAD and standards formats including CATIA V5, CATIA V4, Pro/Engineer, SolidWorks, Inventor, Unigraphics, Parasolid, IGES, STEP, VDA-FS, ACIS® and HSF.

Through 3D InterOp's consistent API, developers can extend their applications support for these popular CAD formats. This enables them to quickly and easily add value to their applications by solving a major problem for their end-users; the accurate and efficient import/export of CAD formats.

Ron Fritz, managing partner for TSA, noted, "CAD data import/export is a challenge that every engineering ISV must overcome to remain competitive in this multi-CAD world. 3D InterOp is the first OEM translator solution we've encountered with the right combination of robust technology, breadth of formats and appropriate business model. We're confident the 3D InterOp translators will be a successful addition to our component portfolio.
