Product Overview

Tetra4D Automate

Tetra4D Automate is a server-based solution that automatically generates data-rich, interactive 3D PDF documents from PDM/PLM systems or internal storage networks.

Organizations that produce large volumes of CAD models need efficient ways to share product information and support collaboration across manufacturing teams. Tetra4D Automate addresses these challenges by automatically creating interactive 3D documents that can be easily distributed across the enterprise. Tetra4D Automate helps scale the use of 3D PDF by delivering documents tailored to key workflows, while requiring minimal IT effort and avoiding the need for costly or complex enterprise solutions.
