TransMagic Company In Inception

• TransMagic was founded in 2001 to address the 3D CAD interoperability

problems facing the manufacturing industry involving myriad CAD systems in the market.

• The architecture was based on licensing key CAD vendor geometry kernels

(engines) to provide a highly precise one-to-one mapping of geometric entities.

• USA based, headquartered in Denver, Colorado.

Software Design Criteria

• The software needed to be priced affordably for OEM

and supply chain partners.

• Introduce the first application that could translate all

major 3D CAD formats.

• Maintain original design intent, with no loss of

fidelity.

• Restore geometric integrity with “Healing”

algorithms.

• Today, TransMagic is known as a trusted CAD

translation tool.

• We’ve achieved our original goals.

Let’s Take a Closer Look

Goal 1 - TransMagic Provides…

• Facilitates rapid and precise analysis;

communication and decision-making across all engineering and business disciplines.

• Full lifecycle access to 3D models, independent of

business or engineering discipline, without the need for a costly engineering CAD seat.

Goal 2 – TransMagic Provides…

• High-fidelity 3D model translations from one

engineering CAD source to many formats without the loss of geometric data or design intent.

• Repair or Heal corrupt or poorly designed 3D

models to maintain design intent through proven geometric algorithms.

• High-precision and high-quality translation

protects the authoritative source of truth.

Goal 3 – TransMagic Provides…

• Independence throughout the supply chain to select

best-of-breed CAD/CAM/CAE/PLM applications.

• Flexibility to view and manipulate 3D CAD models

and assemblies without the need for a costly CAD seat.

• A “Multi-CAD” environment encourages

technological innovation.

Goal 4 – TransMagic Provides

• A trusted, proven system for Multi-CAD model

translation, repair and visualization.

• Enterprise tools for automated processing of

engineering data.

• Collaborate across the supply chain with

stakeholders using 3D PDF, JT, 3DXML increasing the quality of communications eliminating design ambiguity.

Goal 5 – TransMagic Provides…

• Supports unified business processes and work

flows across the supply chain and product lifecycle.

• Engineering organizations can continue to use

their best of breed Digital Engineering applications.

• Manageable cultural transformation that evolves

to achieve the Digital Engineering Strategy.

TransMagic at DoD Labs & Depots

• The EM Systems Engineers in the Magnetic Fields Laboratory use

TransMagic to convert large assemblies from Creo and CATIA to SolidWorks.

• Benefit: TransMagic preprocesses models for simulation resulting in

time saved while maintaining model fidelity.

Naval Surface Warfare Center, in Maryland

Customer Testimonial

• The AFRL Lab needs to take indiscriminate 3D patchwork and stitch

them together into a uniform 3D smooth sheet-body.

• In a live test “TransMagic did more in 15 minutes than two

engineers could accomplish in two weeks!”

Over 2500 DoD and Defense Contractor Users! Over 100 DoD and Defense Contractor Installations!

Who Uses TransMagic?

Customer Testimonial

• Using a combination of SOLIDWORKS, CATIA and TransMagic

software, Northrop Grumman’s LCS MPI team cut the data conversion and repair time in half and preserved the data integrity.

• The Results: Conversion Time Cut in Half! One Year Saved!
