Solid-CIM 3D Product Overview

Solid-CIM 3D is a program created by CIM-Tech.com, Inc. to allow the export of 3D models, complete with "Features" into a format suitable to be processed by Router-CIM or Router-CIM Automation Suite.

 

The output of Solid-CIM 3D is a separate part drawing (.dwg) file for each part in an assembly with features on specific layers relating to their size or type.  These drawings are suitable for use in Router-CIM or the Router-CIM Automation Suite.

 

Solid-CIM 3D supports an internal Autodesk Inventor Link, SOLIDWORKS Link, Solid Edge Link, Autodesk Revit Link and Autodesk Fusion 360 Link to directly export parts or assemblies from these products into Router-CIM.  You can additionally use Solid-CIM 3D on any solids created by AutoCAD, or solids that can be imported into AutoCAD.  

 

The Solid-CIM 3D (SCIM) program provides an easy interface to review Solid-CIM 3D results, name parts and apply materials to parts in an assembly.

 

Solid-CIM 3D converts selected 3D solids into Solid-CIM 3D Parts. A Solid-CIM 3D Part is a group of objects that consist of the selected solid, two Cut Side hatch objects and various polylines and circles that represent the Features of the Solid-CIM 3D Part. After the selected Solids have been converted to Solid-CIM 3D Parts, several Solid-CIM 3D options are available to view and examine the results of Solid-CIM 3D.

 

There is also provided a CSV file that contains all the parts of the assembly in a format that can be imported into the Router-CIM Automation Suite for automated programming.
