NavisWorks

THE 3D DESIGN REVIEW SOLUTION

NavisWorks™ is for everyone involved in the design process. With ArchiCAD, CADLink and the most common CAD setups NavisWorks™ can be used across organisations to communicate design intent. Regardless of model size, or environment of origin, NavisWorks™ can unite multiple models and guarantee frame rate. Whether checking for interference, presenting to clients, creating 4D construction simulations, or using the model for facilities management, effective interactivity is assured.

THE COMPANY

Formed in 1999 as part of LightWork Design and now operating as an independent Limited company, NavisWorks is based in Sheffield UK and has a USA subsidiary, NavisWorks Inc, located in Phoenix, Arizona.

The products are sold worldwide through a network of professional resellers and software partners, as well as direct in some territories.

ENHANCING NAVIGATION

The revolutionary technology that drives NavisWorks™ delivers smooth real time navigation through 3D models regardless of size.

Easy 3D Review

Without specialist CAD skills and using a modest PC, the latest model of a design project can be reviewed.

NavisWorks™ easily visualizes the huge models generated by construction projects. Millions of polygons can be navigated with no slow down in the frame rate.

ENHANCING COLLABORATION

Team working to increase effectiveness is accepted practice in the construction industry. Improved collaboration may result from the industry wide adoption of improved IT and communication solutions.

The Opportunity to Get the Whole Team Working Together

Using NavisWorks™ , project team members can navigate through the design, discuss it, show each other changes and everybody is actively involved - no matter where they are.

With NavisWorks™ decisions are made quicker and nobody misses important changes. The project can move faster, operate smoother, and finish on time and budget.

Uniting File Formats

NavisWorks™ works with ArchiCAD and other popular AEC CAD software. Different file formats can be imported into NavisWorks and reviewed as one model.

This ability allows a wider range of companies, contractors and designers to collaborate - without different file formats getting in the way of effective communication.

ENHANCING COORDINATION

Finding Design Faults Early

Uniting the design models in NavisWorks™ means interferences can be checked early. Sharing problems with other project team members using 3D Mail provides the opportunity to rapidly agree and implement solutions.

NavisWorks™ can find and show areas where the models "clash" with each other. Solving these faults early - during the design process, rather than on site - saves time and money.

NAVISWORKS IS EXCELLENT VALUE

The First Affordable Solution

As 3D CAD becomes an integral part of the design process for large projects, the need to visualize different files together in one model is vital. Design review and digital mock-up hardware and software have cost too much, require too much training to use them and expensive hardware to power them.

NavisWorks™ is the first affordable solution for digital mock-up visualization and real-time review of large 3D design models.
