Acquia has unveiled a new application service for Acquia Cloud that makes it easy for digital IT teams to build and run JavaScript alongside Drupal. “To help our customers build such digital experiences with headless Drupal, we added Node.js support to Acquia Cloud.” said Dries Buytaert, co-founder and CTO of Acquia.
One of the hardest problems facing the additive manufacturing industry is how to get quality manufacturing data into their systems. STL files have traditionally been used but are extremely problematic and error prone. By directly reading both native and standard CAD file formats, products can increase their ease-of-use and ultimately their print quality. HOOPS Exchange is the powerhouse toolkit that does this for hundreds of engineering specific applications including many in the 3D printing market.
3D printing is starting to incorporate traditional engineering techniques into their workflows like using geometry dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), computational engineering analysis (CAE), and metrology for quality control. HOOPS Exchange excels at supporting these advanced workflows with data accessed from the original CAD files.
By adding Tech Soft 3D’s HOOPS graphics engines, HOOPS Visualize for desktop and mobile, or HOOPS Communicator for web visualization, make an extremely powerful platform for rapid product development.
