Best 3D CAD Viewer for your design

3D FastView is a light­weight 3D CAD view­er that helps users to view, assem­ble, markup, trans­late and com­press large 3D CAD files eas­i­ly and effi­cient­ly.

Fast and easy-to-use for large 3D CAD files

* CAD 3D view made easy

3D FastView is a fast, light­weight and easy-to-use 3D CAD mod­el view­er. It has the capa­bil­i­ty to han­dle and com­press large 3D CAD files allow users with­in a project group to access and com­mu­ni­cate 3D data with­out expen­sive 3D CAD licence and high main­te­nance costs.

* User-friendly: both novice and professional users

With the intu­itive inter­face and world-lead­ing 3D data com­press tech­nol­o­gy and prac­ti­cal func­tions, 3D FastView is very friend­ly to both novice users and pro­fes­sion­al users. It allows users to han­dle and assem­ble large 3D CAD files on lap­top eas­i­ly, effi­cient­ly and accu­rate­ly, thus reduc­ing design time and costs.

Compatible with major file formats

As a 3D CAD file view­er, 3D FastView offers robust file for­mat sup­port, it sup­ports the fol­low­ing file for­mats and allows users to seam­less­ly work between them:

CATIA V4/V5, NX, ProE, SOLIDWORKS, SOLIDEDGE, INVENTOR, JT, PARASOLID, 3DXML, STEP / IGES / ACIS / STL / HPGL.

One solution for the entire enterprise

* Visualize different aspects of 3D CAD models

3D FastView has robust visu­al­iza­tion capa­bil­i­ties to facil­i­tate prod­uct design and man­u­fac­tur­ing. This includes view­ing 2D CAD draw­ings and dis­play­ing PMI/GD&T infor­ma­tion. Users are able to cre­ate and save cus­tom view­points, hide/show cer­tain com­po­nents, and gen­er­ate assembly/explosion views to focus on rel­e­vant aspects. The soft­ware also pro­vides tools for cre­at­ing and sav­ing ani­ma­tion, gen­er­at­ing sec­tion cuts and 2D pro­jec­tions.

* Annotate and get accurate measurement

3D FastView allows users to add 2D/3D anno­ta­tions and cal­cu­late mod­el attrib­ut­es. Users can record, export, import anno­ta­tions and mea­sure­ment data for seam­less col­lab­o­ra­tion. A range of com­pre­hen­sive mea­sur­ing tools are avail­able so that anno­ta­tions and mea­sure­ments can be eas­i­ly defined and accu­rate­ly dis­played in a 3D per­spec­tive.

* Analyze 3D CAD model before manufacturing

3D FastView pro­vides users with a quick and effi­cient way to ana­lyze 3D mod­els, includ­ing Under­cut analy­sis, Draft angle analy­sis, 3D mod­el com­pare, etc.

For exam­ple, 3D FastView Pro allows users to run a col­li­sion analy­sis. This way you will be aware of the mis­takes in a time­ly man­ner right before man­u­fac­tur­ing.

* Export: Translate to multiple 3D CAD files at once

In 3D FastView, users can export files to STP, IGS, CATIAV5, ACIS, Para­sol­id and much more file for­mats.

Collaboration with team members

3D FastView is able to trans­late 3D CAD file for­mats between diverse CAD sys­tems. It even sup­ports con­vert­ing files into a light­weight, super-com­pressed neu­tral for­mat, which retains the markup and mea­sure­ment infor­ma­tion. This allows for easy shar­ing with inter­nal and exter­nal teams.

Many man­u­fac­tur­ing and engi­neer­ing firms need a tool that lets them inspect details, add dimen­sions, and describe com­plex prod­uct com­po­nents. 3D FastView pro­vides CAD-like func­tion­al­i­ty, but at a more acces­si­ble cost for users who don’t require full design plan­ning capa­bil­i­ties. The pro­gram is also use­ful for con­struc­tion and archi­tec­ture pro­fes­sion­als who need in-depth project review.
