Compare 2D CAD Drawings
The ability to visually compare 2D drawing files is helpful to quickly identify the changes in CAD drawing revisions or versions. Comparing 2D files helps you save lots of time and enables faster collaboration.
A typical 2D drawing is revised many number of times during the course of a design cycle and many a times even during subsequent batch or lot manufacturing. No matter how small or big the change is, it usually takes lot of time to study these changes. The visual comparison of CAD models and drawings are easy to spot even for the novice users and as the solution is automatic, it saves enormous amounts of time if done manually. Our users have reported a minimum of 10X increase in the speed of comparing and verifying the 2D drawing revisions.
With the aim to enable fast CAD drawing comparison, we now have Compare tool in Glovius 2D Viewer as well. Glovius 2D compare helps you to identify the following changes :
- Any addition, deletion and modification of views
- Any changes in the geometry of the model
- Any changes in PMI information like balloons, datum planes, measurement values etc
Download Glovius today and try the all new Glovius 2D Compare tool. The tool currently supports comparison of Catia drawing ( .CATDrawing ), DWG,DXF and 2D PDF drawings.
Here are the steps to compare 2D drawing files :
- Start Glovius 2D Viewer ( Download Glovius from this link )
- Hit on ‘Compare’ button
- In the ‘Compare’ dialog, input the two versions of the drawing files to be compared and Compare !
The results are computed and shown with the following colors applied :
- New views, dimensions or PMI information is shown in blue color
- Removed Views, dimensions and PMI’s are shown in red color
- All unchanged drawing elements are shown in default color
