Geometric Limited (Mumbai, India) released eDrawings Professional for Autodesk Inventor version 6.1, which includes enhancements to support Autodesk Inventor 2009, Textures, iParts, and iAssemblies.

eDrawings Publishers are lightweight, intuitive collaboration tools for 3D models that are available on Pro/E, CATIA V5, NX, Autodesk Inventor, SolidEdge, and Google SketchUp. They can generate ultra compact eDrawings files with compression of up to 95 percent, compared to the original CAD file; they can share and receive feedback on product designs with review-enabled eDrawings files and collaborate with an unlimited number of recipients; and they can manage, track, and merge comments from various team members.

You can share design data with password protected and self-extracting eDrawings files; measure the geometry in part, assembly, and drawing files when dimensions are absent; disable measurement feature to protect sensitive design data; examine internal details of parts and assemblies with dynamic cross-sectioning; and hide, show, or move components in order to better understand assembly structure.

A 15-day trial version of eDrawings Professional for Autodesk Inventor can be downloaded free of cost.

For details, please contact Geometric.
