As a user of Pro/ENGINEER, we are sure that you will be pleased to hear that the latest release of Pro/ENGINEER software from PTC, incorporates new LWA-Enabled capabilities, provided by the LightWorks rendering engine. This functionality enables you to extend the power of your software by adding accurate, real-world elements - including materials, colours and other visual elements - to your visualisations.
A wide range of LWA material files are downloadable from www.lightworks-user.com enabling you to create even more realistic and relevant designs. These include a range of essential CAD and AEC materials, as well as product design materials and metals, for example: Mold-Tech and Roehlen materials for panelling and UNS Metals. More examples of some of the materials currently available can be found in the column to the right.
Commenting on this news
Clive Davies, Partner Program Manager at LightWork Design, said, "We are pleased that PTC has joined the ever-growing number of LightWorks customer integrating LWA within their applications." He added, "Being LWA-Enabled means that Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 users will now be able to incorporate real-world materials within their work, providing them with even greater design opportunities."
Tim Harrison, Product Line Manager, I.D. Solutions, added "Pro/ENGINEER and LightWorks together make a very powerful design and rendering solution with a strong emphasis on the ease of image creation. Having access to the variety of LWA materials will make the task of photo rendering even more realistic. Pro/ENGINEER users are increasingly operating in a wide range of design industries and the fact that LWA's aren't targeted at any particular sector is an added bonus."
