Management and Support
1. Management in PiXYZ Studio
PiXYZ Studio enables organizations to manage complex 3D/CAD datasets for visualization, XR, and digital twin workflows.
-
Project Data Management
- Import large CAD/3D models from 35+ formats such as CATIA, SolidWorks, NX, JT, STEP, FBX, OBJ, glTF, etc.
- Simplify, decimate, and clean geometry to handle large assemblies.
- Manage hierarchies, materials, textures, and metadata associated with the models.
-
Optimization & Preparation
- Perform polygon reduction (Level of Detail creation).
- Clean scenes by removing hidden geometry, welding, and repairing models.
- Prepare models for real-time rendering with UV unwrapping and lightmap preparation.
- Use the Python API for automating workflows.
-
Integration Management
- Export optimized models to platforms like Unity, Unreal, VRED, or Blender.
- Use workflow presets designed for VR-ready, AR-ready, and Web-ready models.
- Manage Bill of Materials (BOM) metadata for industrial projects.
-
Enterprise-Level Management
- PiXYZ Studio integrates seamlessly with the PiXYZ Software Suite, including PiXYZ Batch and PiXYZ Plugin for Unity/Unreal.
- Supports collaborative workflows across engineering, design, training, and XR simulation teams.
