CrossCad/Ware SDK
CAD interoperability solutions
for 2D and 3D engineering
application developers

Technical data conversion and extraction solutions CrossCad/Ware
allows 3D software publishers to integrate Datakit technology
with their own application in a way that is totally transparent for the user.
  • Dozens of native and neutral input and/or output formats.
  • Extracting and writing all types of data, including 3D and 2D geometric and topological data, dimensions, tolerances and annotations, metadata, features, assemblies, and more.
  • BRep, mesh ; tessellation.
  • Frequent publication of new modules.
  • Regular updates of all modules.
  • Programming interface (API) is fully documented and easy to integrate.
  • Responsive support provided by Datakit experts.
  • No external licence.

CrossCAD / Ware

SDK-File-to-file
To convert dozens of
formats into a single format

  • How the system works

    SDK-file-to-file-schema
    This solution is quick to implement and perfect for importing essential data.
    Then, to process entities related to the business specificities of their software, integrating the CrossCad/ware SDK libraries may prove to be an even more efficient solution.

CrossCAD / Ware

CAD conversion SDK
To extract and restore
the maximum amount of
technical data in multiple
2D and 3D formats
for information
  • How the system works

    CAD conversion SDK schema
    CrossCad/Ware SDK allows application developers to retrieve a large number of data types: 2D, 3D, wireframe, solid, planar, attributes, machining features, construction history, dimensioning data, annotations and tolerancing (FD&T, GDT or PMI), and others more specific to particular domains. Both parts and assemblies are perfectly recovered.

    This solution is chosen by most of Datakit's publisher customers who want to go further with data transfers with demanding attribute-processing requirements.
