in a wide variety of formats but they perpetrate the same issues within their
own organizations by locking their co-workers out of access to the product
models," stated Robert Bean, Kubotek USA 's chief operating officer."
Kubotek Spectrum is a convenient way to review design data stored in the
most common and current engineering file formats, without the danger of
changing the data in any way.5 CKD (full support); CADKEY 5, 6, 7, 97,
98, 99 and 19 PRT (full support); IGES (drawings , wireframe, surfaces, and
solids); and STL (polygon).
