Festo PARTdataManager2D/3D CAD data – now even faster and easierReduced workload thanks to2D/3D CAD data for more than33,000 products.The utilised CAD technologymakes it possible for you togenerate multi-CAD compatibleCAD data. Both neutraland native CAD formats canbe generated – entirely inaccordance with your needs.Festo PARTdataManager canbe installed as a separate application.Take advantage of comprehensive full-text searches, e.g. forpart numbers or product lines.Navigate through products sorted according to cate gories,set up your own favourites orstart a search with a keywordsuch as “gripper”. Create 2D drawings with frame and layersettings in accordance withyour requirements.Visit our website at www.festo.com.

The reworked user interface ofFesto PARTdataManager offersthe following advantages : The search function is alwaysaccessible Several search terms can beopened In addition to text-onlysearches, geometrical andvariable searches are alsoavailable optimised order code search Tabs can be used to changequickly between various typesof information such as searchresults and product images Convenient filter functionswithin the selection tables Switch quickly betweenpredefined views or save yourown arrangements at"Window"- "Manage views" Windows can be stacked inorder to save space Windows can be completelyseparated, thus, for example,allowing a 3-D view duringparts selectionNew:Compare products geometrically.For example add a completevalve terminal to partcomparison by right-clicking inthe 3D view.Find geometrically similarproducts.To do this, change over in the“Links” window to “Similarproducts”.Find accessories for selectedproducts.Example: find mounting forstandard cylinder DSBF?In the product view, changedirectly from the project DSBFto the project CRFNG. All thatis required is a click on theappropriate tile in the “Links”window!Click on the window in order tore-arrange it, just touch the titlebar of a window and drag it tothe desired position.3

Always the latest data, thanks to intelligent online updateUse the integrated, online updatefunction to ensure that youalways have the latest CAD dataavailable locally. Fast Safe Right up to dateIf necessary independently ofthe Festo Product Catalogue/DVD, to ensure your local CADdata is s ynchronized with theCAD gerwww.festo.com/cad update4

Activate the update reminderwhen installing FestoPARTdataManager. You will thenreceive a display of all updates.As standard, a check is madeeach time Windows is started tosee if CAD data updates areavailable. However, you can alsospecify how often to search forupdates.“Release Notes” function Displays products with updated CAD data Can be called up via theupdate tool by right-clickingon the “Catalogue” windowCall up a display of the differences between your installedCAD data and the latest version,or view information on olderversions.Advantage:You can decide beforedownloading the new CADdata whether the revisionsare relevant for you.The release notes are availablein 15 languages5

Festo CAD plug-inFesto’s CAD plug-ins assurea reliable link between the FestoPARTdataManager and yourCAD system.A Festo menu is added to yourCAD system, by means of whichpart selection is seamlessly integrated.The CAD plug-in can be down loaded on Festo Support Portal:www.festo.com/net/SupportPortal6Advantages: Much faster componentmodelling Quick assembly layoutsincluding matings Use of your own systemtemplates Individualised configuration of interfacesettingsFesto CAD plug-in for: AutoCAD Autodesk Inventor Creo Pro/ENGINEER NX SOLID EDGE SolidWorks

Festo’s CAD plug-ins allow fora complete product selection process within the CAD system.For example, the selected product can first be measuredin 3 dimensions, and is only generated in the native formatif it complies with engineeringrequirements. The engineerremains within the CAD system’suser interface throughoutthe entire process. There isno bothersome changing backand forth between variousapplications.7

Seamless integration into Autodesk Inventor Search for geometrical similarityLoad an available CAD modeland use the geometrical searchto find similar Festo products.This function can be used bothwithin the CAD plug-in andalso in Festo PARTdataManager.8

2D/3D CAD formats on the Internet at www.festo.comNeutral formatsNeutral formats such as SAT,STEP, IGES and DXF can be usedin almost any CAD system.Native formatsAs opposed to neutral formats,native CAD formats offer severaladvantages: Part numbers and ID codesare integrated into theCAD model and the model’sfilename. No imported geometry,but rather dynamicallygenerated data Part historyMacro-formatsThese offer the same advantagesas native formats, except that nocomponent mates are possible.In some cases, this formatcannot be used with the “openfile” dialogue in the CAD system. Components which are fixedin space, as well as movingcomponents such asextendable piston rods Component links(constraints, mates) Bill of materials information forcollision relevant components Minimal file sizeAdvantage:CAD data can be generatedin your own start utoCAD 20043D Studio MAXCATIA IUA*V4AutoCADHP ME 10 V9Medusa*VX (Varimetrix)2DVersion3DSoftwareVersionBMP (2D view)DWG2004 – 2013 2004BMP (3D view)DXF2004 – 2013Caddy SAT-V4.2DWFASCII 5.5IGES 2000iCATIA* V5 R8DWFBinary 5.5JT V5.0CATIA** V5 R8DWFCompressed 5.5MetafileV2CATIA IUA*V4DWG2004 – 2013Parasolid BinaryV15CoCreate Modeling* 2007DXF2004 – 2013Parasolid TextV15Creo Elements/Direct Modeling* 17HPGLV2PDF 7.01Creo Elements/Direct Modeling** 13SATV7.0Creo Elements Pro**5STEPAP203Creo Parametric2–5Creo Parametric**1–5STEPAP214COLLADACOLLADA 1.5 MetafileV1MetafileV2IFC2x meshSoftwareVersionJPEG (2D view)JPEG (3D view)SVGSTLInventor2014 – 2019Inventor**2014 – 2019VRMLWavefront Adv.VisualizerMegaCADSAT-V2.0XGLSiemens NX8 – 12Siemens NX**8 – 12SolidEdgeST6 – ST10SolidEdge**ST6 – ST10SolidWorks* 2001SolidWorks**2014 – 2019Think3 2006,2VX (Varimetrix) V5.0 V1.0*Makro-Format **Direkt to CAD function (PART2CAD)11
