T-FLEX Parametric CAD ( http://www.tflex.com ) is a mechanical design system with a flexible and intuitive workflow which is used for mechanical design applications including 3D/2D design, drafting, conceptual sketching, reverse engineering, tolerancing inspections, rapid prototyping, and downstream manufacturing.
Components are provided for CAD, CAM, Dynamic Simulation and Analysis.
T-Flex Dynamics is a general-purpose motion simulation add-on application for studying the physics-based motion behavior of a CAD design without leaving the T-FLEX CAD environment. T-FLEX Dynamics is the virtual prototyping software for engineers and designers interested in understanding the performance of their assemblies.
The latest release of T-Flex provides the ability to directly import parts and assemblies from Solid Edge and SolidWorks. When importing part or assembly data from a “live” running copy of SolidWorks, the data is transferred from SolidWorks to T-Flex CAD retaining all the assembly structure and mates information.

At the recent Autodesk University, Autodesk, have announced a collaboration with Microsoft to integrate DWF technology with Windows Vista using the XML Paper Specification (XPS).
This will provide users with the ability to view and manage DWF documents without requiring additional downloads of plug-ins or the need of special viewing software, directly within the Operating System.
In addition to automatic DWF file viewing, the Windows Vista desktop search function will make it easier and faster for customers to find relevant design files with Live Icons and Preview Pane features. For example, a product designer can search for files based on specifications, designs, or any piece of related data such as an address or supplier’s name. Regardless of where the information is stored, Windows Vista returns Live Icons — thumbnail images of files retrieved — that let the designer see files’ general content at a glance.
