K-Compare Revision

K-Compare® Revision software quickly identifies and easily documents any differences between two CAD models. Don’t waste time finding and documenting design differences.

Safely Identify All Changes to Model and Data

  • K-Compare® Revision easily visualizes changes in side-by-side or overlay mode.
  • Proprietary geometry matching. Analyzes the whole piece with its dimensions and details.
  • 3D geometric dimensioning and semantic control of tolerance definitions (GD&T)
  • Differences outside the specified tolerance are clearly highlighted on the model.

Handle Models from Any Source

  • You can easily open all major CAD extensions.
  • With K-Compare® Revision, you can open and compare even the most complex assembly files.
  • Advanced algorithms minimize processing time, even with large or complex data.

Fast and Complete Reporting of Comparison Results

  • With K-Compare® Revision, an automatic report page is generated for each difference.
  • You can group the related features/differences in a single report.
  • While examining the differences, you can manage the entire organization with a simple tree interface.
  • You can easily edit and change the titles and texts throughout the report.

Stay in touch with the whole team by reporting the changes in detail

  • You can still edit the three-dimensional images when you switch to each report page.
  • With K-Compare® Revision, you can customize report templates to meet company/customer standards.
  • You can add annotations to reports.
  • You can view the report files in any browser or export them to PDF.

K-Compare® Revision User feedback:

With K-Compare® Revision, "Circle 5 Tool & Mold" company can now quickly create comprehensive custom reports of the differences between any two versions of the CAD model.

“Design changes (ECOs) have been prone to errors (and fraught with problems) due to revisions and the methods used to address and resolve them,” says engineering manager Lise Kennette. Until we met Kubotek K-Compare® Revision software.”

One of the first adopters of K-Compare® Revision, Circle 5 Tool & Mold is a world class injection mold supplier that produces high volume steel and aluminum molds ranging from 50-2500 Tons, primarily serving the automotive and medical industries. Since 1987, the company has been committed to being at the cutting edge of technology and a leader in injection molding solutions for the 21st century.
Kennette said it's crucial to properly manage ECOs the first time around. Miscommunicated design changes often result in losses such as missed deadlines, rework and scrapping that can be devastating for any company. This need to minimize or eliminate ECO issues was the primary motivation for Circle 5 implementing K-Compare® Revision.

“Kubotek's K-Compare® Revision software is a developed and easy-to-use tool for effectively communicating design changes to the technical team. The person using the software understands exactly what has changed in the previous leg of the design. Simply put, knowing that design changes are inevitable, K-Compare® Revision opens 3D CAD data, compares them and reports differences, making it a seamless part of the workflow. It automatically generates reports in PowerPoint without the need for time-consuming cut and paste. Reports are easily customized to create fast, clear documentation to manage internal design changes or customer communication.”

“Most CAD products have a rudimentary comparison feature, but Kubotek realized there had to be a better way, and the result was K-Compare® Revision.”
“K-Compare® Revision takes into account tolerance differences. Comparison with K-Compare® Revision is strictly black and white, not gray”.
Kennette discovered that making comparisons and generating reports can be accomplished in much less time than was previously possible – a huge time saver. “The ability to clearly present benchmark results to clients ensures that the changes they want are reflected and the project is approved.”
“We always try to eliminate potential risks in production and K-Compare® Revision minimizes our risk.”

In conclusion, communication is everything and the core strength of K-Compare® Revision is:
Technology-driven communication that supports product quality improvement.
