Overview
|
The XVL Studio series is a suite of authoring tools for editing and viewing 3D data for product manufacturing. Based on ultra-lightweight XVL, it enables 3D digital transformation of the product manufacturing lifecycle. |
 |
XVL Studio Series
XVL Studio is for authoring and publishing content converted from virtually any 3D CAD system.
Using XVL Studio, it is possible to improve the assembly process by verifying processes and providing clear communication to the manufacturing floor that 3D CAD cannot do.
The XVL Studio Series includes three grades: Basic, Standard, and Pro, and several options.:
- XVL Studio Basic – Provides basic viewer functions and engineering functions such as measurements and cross sections.
- XVL Studio Standard – Includes Basic plus work instructions, animations, process definitions.
- XVL Studio Pro – Includes Standard plus process planning and design review functions.
Key Features
 |
 |
|
Navigate and Author Large 3D Models XVL Studio can handle large 3D assembly models, allowing you to work without having to split manufacturing data into smaller sub-assemblies. The entire assembly data can be viewed and edited on a single file, making your work faster and more efficient. |
Import All 3D CAD and Interchange Formats XVL Studio can import native CAD formats such as CATIA, Creo Parametric, NX, Solidworks, as well as other interchange file formats such as JT and STEP. Once these 3D formats are imported into XVL, they can be used together in a single lightweight file. |
 |
 |
|
Check Engineering Designs XVL Studio offers a wide range of features to check and improve the quality of your designs. The engineering tools range from basic tools such as measurements and cross sections to more advanced tools such as automated interference checking. |
Plan Manufacturing Process XVL Studio allows 3D design data to be used for digital design and verification of manufacturing processes. XVL Studio supports multiple BOMs, including E-BOM, M-BOM, and process sequences. This allows the user to plan the manufacturing process and verify each process while still preserving the original engineering BOM. |
 |
 |
|
Create Work Instructions XVL Studio makes it easy to create work instructions using process data. Easily create illustrations or animations for each task, and add notes, warnings and other information as required. The work instructions can be published in Excel or Web3D using Lattice3D Reporter or XVL Web3D Manager. |
Create 3D Parts Lists with Multiple BOMs XVL Studio’s multi-BOM feature allows you to create and manage several different BOMs with a single XVL model. For example, you can easily create parts lists for E-BOMs, M-BOMs and Service BOMs that interlink with 3D data. |
 |
|
|
Create Technical Illustrations XVL Studio makes it easy to create technical illustrations using 3D data: you can explode assembly parts in 3D, add notes and balloons, and create multiple illustration views. The illustration views can then be exported as raster or vector images for use in technical documentation. |
Auto Update Feature XVL Studio can automatically update your work when the model changes. When XVL Studio receives a new version of a model, its “Auto Detect and Update” feature automatically scans the new version and finds all of the changes from the previous version. It then shows the changes to the user for verification or correction. When the changes are verified, XVL Studio automatically applies all of the work that was done on the old version to the new version. |
Use Cases
- Engineering Design Review – Automatic interference checking tools can detect more problems with large assembly data earlier in the design process. This improves design quality, saves time and reduces cost.
- Process Planning – Convert E-BOM to M-BOM and plan the manufacturing process in XVL. This allows you to identify manufacturing issues early in the design process, improving product quality and reducing cost.
- 3D/2D Work Instructions – Convert your 3D design data into animated 3D work instructions or illustrated 2D work instructions.
- Technical Illustrations – Use 3D data to quickly and easily create accurate technical illustrations.
Key Benefits
- Improve communication with advanced 3D publishing – by creating 3D technical animation sequences and procedures for assembly instructions, manufacturing, training, IETMs, digital manuals, and more.
- Drive innovation and collaboration – with productivity boosting process planning, multiple views, and saved snapshot capabilities.
- ‘Practical’ lifecycle management – use XVL Studio Standard for advanced design and manufacturing review with digital mock-up.
- Solve the multi-CAD problem – assemble models from different CAD systems to automatically create new XVL files.
- Additional optional modules – for Technical Illustration, direct import of CATIA V4 and Parasolid files, and Point Cloud Evaluation.
