10. Advantages of true MultiCAD-DMU
3DViewStation 10
 Load native data from various CAD sources
 Load mixed data from various CAD sources ad hoc
in one session
 Analyze neutral data “released “ with native CAD
data “in work”
 Collaboration: jointly analyze own data of file
format A and partner’s / supplier’s data in file
format B
 No preprocessing necessary
 No wait times for preprocessing
