Data Conversion, Migration & Translation
 

CAD data conversion, migration and translation are critical activity when data has to be imported into an in-use CAD application from other CAD application. While CAD data interoperability is still being worked on by major CAD software vendors, the necessity of a robust and cost effective data conversion, migration and translation is high.

CAD Data Conversion: Creation of 3D models or drawings from paper drawings in a target CAD application. This process is used in the absence of CAD data in digital format.

CAD Data Conversion is long and laborious process resulting is higher operating expense upfront. The robust methodology adopted by Wipro ensures substantial reduction in the operating expense of Data conversion process while ensuring data integrity and quality

CAD Data Migration: Conversion of CAD data from source CAD application to target CAD application. This process is employed when the source and the target applications are known.

CAD Data Translation: Conversion of CAD data in one application to an industry standard neutral format using built-in or third party application. This process is employed when the target CAD application is not known.

Translators

STEP (solid models)
IGES (Surface and wire-frame)

Translation Routes

Neutral format translation
Kernel based translations
Direct translators
Multi step translation
Feature based translation

While there are tools to assist in CAD data migration and translation, they are far from being perfect to suit design needs. Invariably almost all CAD data need clean-up after translation.

This process, though not complex, is time consuming and needs a trained eye and clear understanding of the design requirements to spot and fix the issues. Wipro, with its unique processes in place, is well positioned help reduce time and cost arising of such design process bottle necks
