Smart Cooperation of IMK and CoreTechnologie:
3D Human Simulation for all CAD Formats
By integrating the 3D CAD interfaces of the software manufacturer
CoreTechnologie into the current version of the Ema Software Suite from IMK
Automotive, the simulation tool is now compatible with all common CAx
systems.
Moembris, 14.10.2021 (ab/mas) - The 3D Kernel IO Software Development Kit (SDK) from
the German-French software manufacturer CoreTechnologie (CT) is now integrated in
the current version of the Ema Software Suite. The cooperation means that 3D human
simulation and virtual workplace and process design are now directly compatible with all
common CAD systems and formats.
Digital Precision
The Ema Software Suite enables consistent digital production and assembly planning
as well as precise process planning for the human-robot collaboration. A unique selling
point of the planning tool is the time analysis and ergonomics assessment with
comprehensive consideration of the standard performance reference. In order to
simulate complex manufacturing scenarios with human involvement precisely and
realistically, throughput times are determined validly on the basis of the digital human
model and the ergonomic boundary conditions.
CAD Interoperability
The integration of CoreTechnologie's Software Development Kit (SDK) 3D Kernel IO
gives IMK an easy and fast access to all major 3D formats. The CT interface tool
includes 34 different interfaces such as Catia, Nx, Creo, Solidworks and Inventor as
well as JT, STEP, IFC and typical visualization formats such as FBX, GLTF and OBJ.
By using the SDK, IMK can always provide its customers with the latest interface
versions.
The SDK 3D Kernel IO is a complete in-house development by CoreTechnologie and
can be licensed by software manufacturers as part of a worldwide flat rate. By being
