Tetra4D Reviewer is a high-performance native CAD viewer and mockup tool that allows users to easily interact with components and assemblies from over 20 major CAD formats. It enables non-CAD users to easily access 3D CAD models for visualization and design review purposes, without requiring the CAD application. This saves time and money by providing access to native CAD files, including precise geometry, which is critical for tasks such as design review, product validation, and assembly preparation. Any user, even those without a CAD license or training, can measure precise geometry, merge, compare, and modify CAD data, and edit materials, textures, and lighting. Once review or modifications have been made, users can export to a neutral CAD format such as STEP or Parasolid, and the universally accessible 3D PDF. The software is a 64-bit application designed for processing large models.
