EnCapta
EnCapta software from VISTAGY, Waltham, MA, augments CAD software by providing engineers with tools for capturing and communicating specialized non-geometric design data. It uses the technology behind the company's FiberSIM(tm) software, which provides an integrated environment in the CATIA, Pro/ENGINEER, and UGS CAD systems. Once a user captures a complete digital product definition, they can use EnCapta to distribute the information to other engineering applications and to the product development team. The software features three main components: customizable templates for defining objects, an interactive user interface, and XML tools. Data such as cost estimates, material specifications, and engineering change orders from sources such as text documents, spreadsheets, e-mail messages, and even handwritten notes can be captured and managed as objects and linked to the relevant CAD geometry. XML tools allow specific design information to be extracted from the CAD model and reported to other systems and databases.
