CADdoctor

What CADdoctor is

CADdoctor is the earlier product identity represented by Elysium’s 3D-SUITE Editor, a set of tools for 3D model-based engineering workflows. The suite covers PDQ checking, translation, validation, simplification, and data packages. Its PDQ Checker applies customizable criteria and thresholds against guidelines from SASIG, JAMA, JAPIA, and VDA. CAD Validator compares two CAD models across geometry, assembly structures, attributes, and PMI, and supports customizable reports. Adapters translate geometry, structures, attributes, and PMI across supported CAD and neutral formats. Plug-in connectivity is listed for CATIA V5, NX, Creo Parametric, and SOLIDWORKS. Deployment options include desktop and web applications, Windows context menus, CAD menus, and command-line operation; Enterprise TransServer adds web-based user management and Web API execution. Standard includes desktop applications, plug-ins, reusable scenarios, manual operation, and limited batch processing. Enterprise adds full batch processing with load balancing and command line, PDM integration, and scalable automation. The product is available for web and Windows, and pricing is available on request. All 3D-SUITE Utility Tools can be used license-free.
