ESPRIT CAM by DP Technology receives Autodesk Inventor 2010 certification

DP Technology, a leader in the field of computer-aided-manufacturing (CAM) and creator of ESPRIT®, is pleased to announce that ESPRIT CAM has been certified by the Autodesk Inventor Certified Application Program for Autodesk Inventor 2010 software.

The Autodesk Inventor 2010 product line is the foundation of the Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping. Autodesk Inventor produces an accurate 3D model that enables users to validate the form, fit and function of a design before physically building it.

“We have certified that ESPRIT, because of its interoperability and overall quality, meets the high standards established by Autodesk,” said Brenda Discher, vice president of industry marketing for the Manufacturing Industry Group at Autodesk. “A benefit of the FX technology in ESPRIT is that it allows Autodesk Inventor users to see the Inventor history tree — giving them associativity between Inventor and ESPRIT.”

In ESPRIT, the ESPRIT FX™ feature tree, which has been upgraded and now includes better rendering and visualization options, now supports multiple CAD models and assemblies. The new associative technology introduced in ESPRIT 2009 is also fully integrated into the ESPRIT FX feature tree, linking design features built inside the CAD system with manufacturing features built inside ESPRIT.

With ESPRIT, users are able to open native Autodesk Inventor files, thereby ensuring a high-quality, seamless transition from CAD to CAM software that’s built to maintain the integrity of any design. The ease of interoperability between ESPRIT and Autodesk Inventor paves the way for accurate data transfers that ultimately translate to accuracy and ease in manufacturing.
