CADIQ 9.1.0 Product Specification
Release Summary
CADIQ compares CAD models of various formats to identify geometric shape, quality, annotation
and PMI saved view differences introduced by engineering changes, translation or manual
remodeling. It highlights shape differences in form, mass properties, surface geometry and
topology. Quality defects that impede analysis, manufacturing or data exchange processes are
clearly identified with no extraneous information. CADIQ analysis uses the native programming
interface of each CAD system to maximize accuracy and robustness. Excel statistics are
automatically generated to support process quality control. All functionality is available in a
command line interface for integration into PLM systems.

Module
Description
An
application
that
adds
CADIQ
menus
to
the
CAD system's user interface to make it convenient
Embedded
for a user to set up a Controller job to qualify the working model or to compare it to a model
Launcher
stored in a file on disk. Automates the process of displaying the CAD system model with the
same orientation and zoom as in the CADIQ Viewer.
User interface for creating batch analysis jobs, monitoring their progress in real-time, generating
Controller
statistics, and loading model diagnostic results into the Viewer. Enables parallel, distributed
processing and CAD session sharing to dramatically reduce the time required to analyze a batch
of models. Can be executed in batch mode with a command line interface.
Batch CAD application that analyzes a model through a CAD System Interface using diagnostic
Analyzer
algorithms and configuration parameters that are consistent across all CAD systems. When
comparing two models, this application analyzes the first model (with the appropriate CAD
System Interface) and creates a CADIQ results file that becomes an input for a second Analyzer
process on the second model (with the appropriate CAD System Interface). Can be invoked
through a command line interface if use of the Controller GUI is not desired.
Assembly Analysis Add diagnostics to the Analyzer which enable assembly model quality checking and comparison
without flattening.
Module
Add diagnostics to the Analyzer which enable part-level PMI quality checking and comparison.
Part PMI Module
Add diagnostics to the Analyzer which enable assembly-level PMI quality checking and
Assembly PMI
comparison.
Module
During validation of a STEP file export, evaluate the mass properties and face sampling points on
STEP Validation
Properties Module the native model and append these to the STEP file.
Dynamic interface between the Analyzer and a batch CAD session through its application
CAD System
programming interface (API). No data translation or conversion occurs while the model is
Interface
analyzed. Prerequisites are documented in the Support Matrix.
CAD File Interface Dynamic interface between the Analyzer and a batch CAD data access process. No
prerequisites required for CAD installation/license.
Standalone diagnostic user interface for quickly identifying the location and properties of each
Viewer
quality defect or comparison problem. Simultaneously visualizes the analysis results for 1, 2, 3 or
4 related models (same scale and coordinate system). The 3D graphics can be dynamically
configured to behave like any supported CAD system. Supports user-defined documentation of
diagnostic issues with automated animation between them.
Save diagnostic results or user-defined documentation of diagnostic issues (saved views with
3D PDF Viewer
comments and animations) to 3D PDF viewable with the Adobe Reader X and newer.
