Press Release: September 17, 2009

MARLBOROUGH, Mass. – Kubotek, the leader in history-free direct 3D modeling, announces that KeyCreator Version 9 will be available this fall.

Highlighted in KeyCreator Version 9 will be the industry leading direct dimension-driven editing. KeyCreator Version 9 will display significant improvements in the 3D placement of smart dimensions on solids. This furthers Kubotek’s pioneering dimension-driven editing capabilities, creating an incredibly fast environment for precise, unrestricted, direct editing of mechanical solids. This revolutionary new approach also provides a simple and intuitive alternative to traditional solid modeling which constrains models based on how they were constructed.

Additionally, KeyCreator Version 9 will include these noteworthy performance and productivity enhancements:
• Dramatically faster loading and more efficient memory use when opening large non-KeyCreator files
• New file size optimization routines create smaller CKD files
• Improved graphics algorithm for faster frame rates
• New display options for improved visual display and performance
• Windows 7 support
• Enhanced associative part mating functionality
• New dynamic 3D handle operator for moving entities
• New detailing options for productivity gains

A short video is available to demonstrate the planned dimension-driven enhancements.
