Power Translators for 3ds Max

Power Translators for 3ds Max significantly reduces the time it takes to import large models and assemblies into 3ds Max. What used to take days or weeks can now be accomplished in a matter of hours. Power Translators for 3ds Max is the answer to get CAD models and assemblies into 3ds Max with the push of a button. Power Translators for 3ds Max reads IGES, STEP, SAT, and Rhino files, and then creates a Power NURBS surface/solid within 3ds Max to represent the precise geometry defined in the files. It then creates a mesh at render time to a specified user defined tolerance relative to the size of the object in the image.

Power Translators for 3ds Max can easily pay for itself on a single project in time savings alone! Power Translators for 3ds Max is a ground breaking, highly efficient tool that combines state-of-the-art hardware and networking technologies with the advanced geometric modeling technology from IntegrityWare. Power Translators for 3ds Max has been built from the ground to solve today’s difficult problems of getting quality CAD data into 3ds Max. The plug-in has been battle-hardened in the most demanding productions at some of the best 3ds Max visualization rendering facilities in the world. Power Translators for 3ds Max is the plug-in of choice for professionals who want the most advanced, best integrated, highest quality 3ds Max CAD translator on the market today.

A tolerance of 2 or 3 pixels will produce an extremely high quality image with very smooth edges that do not have polygonal artifacts. The Power NURBS surface/solid introduced by Power Translators for 3ds Max can have materials applied at the sub-object level and is able to utilize most 3ds Max Mesh modifiers (such as twist, UV Map, and so on).

Precise NURBS Representation

Imports precise geometric NURBS data for trimmed surfaces, solids models, and assemblies from IGES, STEP, SAT, and Rhino formats. Assemblies can be imported into a Power Assembly to maintain their hierarchical structure.

Power NURBS Export

Exports Power NURBS objects into IGES, STEP, SAT and Rhino formats. Bring your Power Solids objects into your favorite CAD system.

Power Join

Combines one or more Power NURBS objects into a single Power NURBS object with optional sewing, merging, or intersecting.

Power Assembly

Maintains imported data’s instancing hierarchy to prevent unnecessary duplication, reducing memory requirements and allowing for larger more complex data sets.

Resolution Independent Mesh

Power Translators for 3ds Max imported NURBS objects are procedural -- allowing you the freedom to increase or decrease the polygon count of the View port Mesh or Render Mesh.

Power Editable NURBS

Direct editing of NURBS objects similar to 3ds Max’s Editable Mesh tool. It includes: Hide, UnHide, Delete, Faces, Flip Normals, Unify Normals, Intersection, Attach, Detach, and more.

Power Navigator

Provides a full hierarchy browser giving you immediate access to objects nested in the history stack.
