Okino software is used and trusted throughout the world by many tens of thousands of 3D professionals in mission & production critical environments, backed by respectable personal support directly from our core development team.

CATIA

CATIA, developed by Dassault Systèmes, is an integrated suite of CAD, CAE and CAM applications for digital product definition and simulation. CATIA is primarily used by the automotive and aerospace industries for automobile and aircraft product and tooling design.

The key file extensions used with CATIA v5 software are ".catpart" for the part and geometry files, and ".catproduct" for the assembly files.

Conversions from CATIA can best be done either via Okino's native CATIA v5 importer (which is based on the real and actual CATIA v5 runtime system licensed from Dassault Systèmes), or equally well via STEP AP214 files.

ArtiosCAD

ArtiosCAD is stated to be the world's most popular structural packaging design editor. It has tools specifically designed for packaging professionals for structural design, product development, virtual prototyping and manufacturing. ArtiosCAD is the ideal product for all corrugated, folding carton and POP, POS, FSDU display designers.

While ArtiosCAD has some basic CAD importers, it does not have the plethora of interoperability file formats offered by Okino software, and of the depth and breadth of our converters. Conversions occurs from the Okino source of CAD, DCC and VisSim file formats into ArtiosCAD via the Okino Collada exporter. This pipeline has been well tested and used in production environments by mutual ArtiosCAD customers.
