Consuming Engineering Data with CAD Visualization Part 3
In this post, you’ll see how making workflows completely digital solves issues of access to 3D engineering data, visualization, design analysis, and report generation are solved.
View CAD files with Glovius. Glovius apps are available on Windows, iPhone, iPad, Android, and Cloud (online). Glovius for macOS is coming soon.

In this series of posts, we discuss the steps needed to take your manufacturing organization digital by enabling 3D engineering data with purpose-built tools for visualization and analysis, such as HCL Glovius. Part 1,The First Small Step- Gain Giant Benefits, discussed how adopting a tool like Glovius allows users in various teams across an organization to access, archive, and retrieve information at a faster pace, without having to spend significant money on 3D modeling tool licenses.
In this series of posts, we discuss the steps needed to take your manufacturing organization digital by enabling 3D engineering data with purpose-built tools for visualization and analysis. A vast number of users who consume 3D engineering data use it primarily for analysis. In fact, the number of non-designers using this data is typically 10 times (or more) the number of CAD designers who need a CAD authoring tool for modeling them.
We plan to bring Glovius to the Mac, with similar features to Glovius for Windows, and at the same price of $480/year. Support this initiative by joining our waitlist.
Glovius is a modern CAD Viewer that assists you to Visualize, Analyze and Generate reports of 3D parts and assemblies.
Apart from our native Glovius appsfor Windows, iOS and Android devices, the Glovius Cloud solution helps to view CAD files online.
Read this blog by renowned industry analyst Joe Barkai, where he discusses the democratization of CAD data and how various departments across the modern enterprise are benefiting from access to CAD data.Joe also shares insights about how two companies (Buck Lighting and the Indian arm of one of Japan’s largest automotive company) use Glovius to provide company wide access to design data to departments such as design, manufacturing, purchase, among others.

HCL’s Glovius solution meets all three business challenges and delivers important capabilities into the hands of downstream users of design data within the organization and the supply chain.
Glovius has number of tools to quickly calculate and surface meta data associated with the CAD components. We recently introduced a new parameter to calculate the billet size needed to manufacture the component and the corresponding wastage of raw material in subsequent manufacturing steps.
CAD assemblies can become complex with many components, metadata, PMIs or associated data. Glovius offers a number of tools specifically designed for quick analysis and inspection of CAD assembly files. Lets explore these tools in detail –
