Now in its third decade of development, PolyTrans|CAD is used by tens of thousands of production studios and professional 3D users to cross convert crack-free and render-perfect BREP solids CAD models (in native formats, not reverse engineered secondary CAD formats) to 3ds Max, Maya, XSI, Lightwave, Cinema-4D and all major downstream file formats ranging from COLLADA to Wavefront OBJ and dozens more. Most importantly, Okino does not use reverse engineered CAD modules as is done by others, but rather licenses the real and actual CAD geometry engines from Autodesk (Inventor COM client), Dassault Systemes (a live version of CATIA v5), PTC (a live version of ProE inside of Okino software), Solid Edge (native Simens SDKs), SolidWorks (integrated SolidWorks source code and native COM client), Spatial (for ACIS solids engine), UGS/Siemens (JT Open
toolkit) and others
The DCC/Animation side of PolyTrans has long provided for the defacto and production-proven bidirectional conversion of animation, scene and skeleton + skinned mesh data between all major animation systems (3ds Max, Maya, XSI, Lightwave, Cinema-4D) and core animation related file formats such as BVH, COLLADA, FBX, LW, U3D, XAML-3D and others. The twinned PolyTrans-for-MAX and PolyTrans-for-Maya conversion system provides the tightest integration between 3ds Max and Maya, being in use by all major MAX+Maya production studios since the mid-90's.
Okino's conversion software is in daily use by almost every major top-named company around the world, with tens of thousands of paid and satisfied customers. Data translation is a very critical business for which Okino's professional production customers must have perfect conversions, and as such Okino has always guaranteed its data translation software. The software incorporates hundreds of man years of development and over 2 decades of customer usage, testing and refinement which has made PolyTrans the main conversion system used throughout the 3D software industry.
Using PolyTrans you'll never again have to spend hours hand-tweaking a translated model since PolyTrans converts every aspect of a 3d model, including all shading parameters, texture mapping coordinates, texture map information, skinning + skeletons and animation data.
PolyTrans Major Features
- Just load the translated model into your favorite 3d program and press the render button - nothing could be simpler!
- Robust import, optimization & rendering of CAD, VisSim, D.C.C. and AEC models
- Converts & optimizes all major CAD formats to 3ds Max, Maya, XSI, Lightwave, Cinema-4D, OpenFlight and dozens more file formats and 3D programs
- Highly refined & popular 3ds Max <-> Maya pipeline via native plug-ins, with over 12 years of development & production use
- Import and compose 3D scenes from a plethora of 2D/3D file formats then render out to high quality images for print media, training manuals, or marketing brochures

PolyTrans Add-on Modules:
CAD/Pack
Autodesk Inventor importer, DXF/DWG importer/exporter, IGES import and export (surface-based, not BREP), Solid Edge import and SolidWorks import.
Extremely popular for Okino's SolidWorks importer which provides error-free imports.
DCC/Pack
The main license for PolyTrans-for-Maya and/or OpenFlight. Also includes COLLADA, FBX import/export, PolyTrans-for-Softimage XSI native plug-in system, Softimage XSI (.dotXSI) import/export, and Softimage 3D .hrc and .dsc import/export.
Granite/Pack
Okino's most popular CAD module, for those not converting Inventor, Solidworks, or Solid Edge (see CAD/Pack). Provides crack-free conversion of BREP solids -- robust, fast and well refined.
ACIS® SAT (up to v7), IGES (solids), Parasolid®, ProE® native parts & assemblies, Pro/DESKTOP®, STEP & VDA-FS. Also includes Okino surface-based IGES importer as a complement to the solids-based PTC IGES importer.
This is the only importer which handles native, encrypted ProE files by using the real ProE software licensed from PTC.
