JETCAM has announced a v4 update to its free CAD Viewer, offering users an enhanced experience with several new features. The updated CAD Viewer delivers new features and usability improvements, providing intuitive viewing of 2D CAD files on Windows PCs.
The new release focuses on improving functionality and providing an improved interface experience.
Key enhancements include:
- Automatic Dark/Light Mode: Adapts to your Windows theme for a seamless viewing experience.
- 32-bit and 64-bit Versions: Choose the version that suits your system. The 64-bit version supports larger memory loads – best-suited for managing folders with component files.
- Layer Visibility Control: Show or hide individual layers in DXF and JETCAM files, helping users isolate and review key data, like bend lines.
- Raw Data Viewing: Access block and raw content data from DXF files for analysis.
- JETCAM Integration: Right-click on a JETCAM component to open it in JETCAM Expert (when set as default).
The JETCAM CAD Viewer is a lightweight tool that requires little memory or hard disk space. It is designed to be installed alongside existing CAD/CAM software to provide a one-click viewing of CAD files. The viewer is free, ‘as is’ and without warranty. It can be installed on an unlimited number of computers.
Additional benefits of the JETCAM CAD Viewer:
- Completely free: No ads, no spyware, no internet connection required.
- Lightweight performance: Uses under 100MB of memory.
- Easy file navigation: Includes a tree view for local and mapped network drives.
- Instant previews: Displays thumbnail images of supported 2D CAD files including JGF, DWG, DXF, and IGES.
- Customisable default viewer settings: Set as the default viewer for specific file types during installation.
- Precision tools: Built-in measurement tools display part scale, with pan and zoom of vector view.
Martin Bailey, managing director of JETCAM, said; “The CAD Viewer is an essential install for anyone that frequently works with CAD files. It installs within seconds, needs no setup, and is extremely quick to use. This update makes it even more powerful and user-friendly.”
