In their own words
CAD Exchanger
CAD Exchanger provides tools to view, convert, analyze and work with 3D CAD data. CAD Exchanger Lab exchanges data in more than 30 CAD and BIM formats. It can inspect assembly structure, geometry, properties and PMI, measure models, create sectioned or exploded views, and edit models. For software development, the SDK provides C++, Python, C#, Java and JavaScript libraries to add CAD and BIM data access to web, server or desktop applications. Supported integrations include Unity, Three.js, UNIGINE, Parasolid, Open CASCADE, C3D, ACIS and Rhino/OpenNURBS. The SDK uses parallel computing for import, export, healing, meshing, visualization and simplification. It is presented for web applications, backend processing and engineering applications. Lab offers perpetual or subscription licensing, with node-locked or floating options; floating licenses require a license server in the user's environment. Lab subscriptions stop working at the end of their term. Pricing is available on request, and a free evaluation trial can be requested.
