Jump to Website Here
May 29, 2001 - Cimmetry Systems Inc., the leading provider of product
visualization and collaboration solutions for the engineering and manufacturing
markets worldwide, and AIM systems GmbH, developer of the German market leading
COMPASS PDM system, announced today that AIM systems will implement Cimmetry's
OEM technology within its COMPASS 2000 line of products.
With this new licensing deal, AIM systems will integrate Cimmetry's technology
directly into the COMPASS product, allowing users to visually access data
directly within the COMPASS interface.
The AutoVue family of products is a comprehensive visualization solution
providing users with the ability to view and markup 2D/3D CAD and business
documents without needing the authoring application. AutoVue also supports
raster, vector, hybrid office and graphics formats. Formats include CATIA,
Pro/ENGINEER, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, Autodesk Inventor, Unigraphics, AutoCAD,
MicroStation, HPGL, ME-10, TIFF, and PDF.
The COMPASS Product line satisfies all Product Data Management needs, from
comprehensive data management for a single seat user to an extensive Workflow
environment for the large enterprise.
* "COMPASS pro" is a complete PDM system, providing extensive applications for
facilitating project control and product development work throughout an
organization.
* "COMPASS easy" is the entry-level solution: pre-configured to everyday tasks
with no compromise when it comes to functionality.
"One could point to the longevity and excellence of the relationship, or to the
stature achieved by AIM systems in the German PDM marketplace," remarked R.
Alain Danik, Manager for Business Development at Cimmetry Systems, "either way,
AIM systems' decision to strengthen its relationship with Cimmetry is a solid
recommendation and proof of the strong synergy between our two technologies."
"The deep-seated integration of Cimmetry's viewing technology with COMPASS
offers great advantages to the user. In COMPASS you quickly find what you need.
You also have powerful visualization of the registered documents, much more than
a simple view." remarked Uwe H. Stapelfeldt, Director Customer Oriented
Services. "E.g. you can zoom out/enlarge details of CAD-constructions. You can
quickly change between different drawings. COMPASS and Cimmetry's viewer unite
this in a standardized and clear graphic user interface."
