3D Viewer

Content Type: Service
Categories: Visualization

Overview

3D Viewer lets you upload, visualize, and interact with 3D files(JT, OBJ, STL) and 2D drawings directly in your application. You can navigate the Product Structure(PS), explore Product Manufacturing Information(PMI), create Section Views, add Markups, and more—all within a seamless experience.

We’ve designed it to handle the heavy lifting of 3D rendering, so you don’t have to build an engine from scratch. Just drag, drop, configure, and you’re ready to go.

Additionally, we provide an extension module and a sample App to help you build your 3D applications more effectively:

 

  1. 3D Viewer for Teamcenter is an add-on module for 3D Viewer service. It makes you easy to search and fetch JT models from your Teamcenter instance.
  2. 3D Viewer Sample App is an integrated example that combines the 3D Viewer for Teamcenter and the 3D Viewer. It serves as a good starting point for configuring and using these tools, offering a solid foundation for developing your own 3D application.

In addition, we offer a course that guides you through building a 3D visualization application step by step using the 3D Viewer.

Releases

Version: 5.1.1
Framework Version: 10.0.0
Release Notes: Here's what's new in Version 5.1.1 Improvement • Supports higher versions of JT to be compatible with errors where PMI cannot be displayed. • Fixed errors in SGO display under certain conditions Other: • Updated internal dependencies.
Version: 5.1.0
Framework Version: 10.0.0
Release Notes: Here's what's new in Version 5.1.0 New Features • Measurement display supports multiple languages. You can set the display language in the 'General' tab of the Measurement widget, the default language is 'English'. • Support for displaying all Product Structure tree nodes search results in a drop-down list. This makes it easier for you to view models with a large number of Product Structure nodes. Improvement • Selection change event of Viewer. When selecting bodies, if a part consists of more than one body and you select only one of them, the body instance is now also returned; previously, you had to select all bodies to return the part instance.
Version: 4.0.0
Framework Version: 10.0.0
Release Notes: Here's what's new in Version 4.0.0 Breaking Changes: Now 3D Viewer fully embraces Mendix Studio Pro 10, which will give you a whole new experience. Go and make it!
Version: 3.0.0
Framework Version: 9.24.10
Release Notes: Here's what's new in Version 3.0.0 New Features We supported more model formats and ways to upload files. This give you the freedom to choose the upload way that is most convenient for your scenario. • Supported more 3D file formats: STL(Stereolithography), glTF(GL Transmission Format), OBJ(Object File). • Extended source for loading models, read directly from the cloud. This allows you to provide a url, which can be the url of a model that exists in your network drive. • Supported dragging and dropping files or folder directly into the viewer to preview. After previewing, you can upload to Mendix file storage with one click. Supported not only single file, but also multiple files, which is a more user-friendly feature. • Supported uploading batch files. In the past, uploading files using File Explorer only supported one file, but now it supports uploading multiple files at once. Other New Features • We supported searching the names of nodes with regular expressions in Product Structure tree and highlighting the searched nodes on the Viewer. This can give you more convenience for viewing models with many nodes. Improvements Performance Improvements • We updated our core dependency PLM Vis Web. This update brings many improvements to performance and stability for your visualization application. Other Improvements • We have optimized the UX to be more user-friendly for shattered JT file uploads. Previously user have to zip the shattered JT files before upload, now user can select a folder to upload the shattered JT files. Breaking Changes • The new 3D Viewer is based on Studio Pro 9.24.10, so it requires 9.24.10 or higher
