CGM - Convergence Geometric Modeler

CGM is the industry’s first commercial 3D geometry kernel made available to the market in over ten years; opening a new set of opportunities for application providers to deliver more advanced industry solutions. The 3D modeling kernel is the same robust innovative technology used in Dassault Systèmes’ V5 and V6 products. The modeling engine has been the foundation of V5 products for over ten years, proven in the most challenging application environments and in use by some of the world’s largest manufacturers.

CGM Delivers Advanced Technology Enabling:

  • Large model capacity and performance exceeding traditional system limitations
  • Advanced deformation and warping to address complex design and manufacturing workflows
  • Tight application data integration due to geometric data compatibility with V5 and V6

The geometry engine was developed with performance in mind. CGM’s unique memory optimization strategies give it unparalleled capacity for large data handling. Consequently, designing and manipulating large models is fast and reliable, especially when compared to other commercial modelers.

CGM Key Features:

  • Native B-rep Interoperability with Dassault Systèmes V5: preserves full geometric and topological integrity
  • Multi-Dimensional Modeling: a rich toolset to define and manipulate solid, surface and wire geometry
  • Foundation-based Tolerant Modeling: tolerant modeling designed in from the beginning to ensure precision for natively built and imported models
  • Tolerant Operators: fault-tolerant operators, accepting of tolerant topology inputs. Whenever possible, operators strive to improve tolerances, making the result more precise than the input.
  • Full Breadth of Operations: a complete suite of modeling operators required by applications in PLM workflows
  • High Scalability: optimized performance and low memory consumption for large models
  • Advanced Operations: a unique set of specialized operations for creation and modification of complex geometries
  • Robust Surfacing: capabilities include blending, covering, and sweeping, with behavior that maintains geometry integrity
  • Faceting: a function for generating a polygonal representations of the 3D model

The capabilities are delivered using current object-oriented design technologies with a consistent interface for easy integration.
