Tetra4D Automate

Tetra4D Automate provides a simple, easy to deploy solution to automate the creation of rich, interactive 3D PDF documents from PDM/PLM systems or internal storage networks, automatically or on-demand. Utilizing highly customizable Tetra4D Enrich templates, companies can now automatically generate hundreds or thousands of consistent mission-critical documents such as Product Visualization, Engineering Data Release, Design Change Notifications and Parts Catalogs.

Realize the benefits of creating data-rich 3D PDFs to further streamline documentation and communication workflows, and efficiently scale 3D PDF usage in key manufacturing use cases with less IT effort and without the need for a costly and complex enterprise-level solution. Tetra4D Automate requires minimal customization, training and integration support, allowing companies to start using the product immediately without any interruption or downtime to their processes. Tetra4D Automate translates the same formats as Tetra4D Enrich and Tetra4D Converter with full support of assembly structure, PMI, views and CAD attributes.
