Understand product data

Before starting a project, it is helpful to familiarize yourself with the product.

• Familiarize yourself with the product

  Switch to Halocline Assembly

  • Desktop overview
  Import the product model into Halocline Assembly

  • Desktop assembly
  Launch Assembly VR

  • Launch Assembly VR
  Check all relevant parts and assemblies for potential design issues

  • Select parts and assemblies
  • Move parts and assemblies
  Examine the arrangement of parts in the overall context

  • Set section views
• Create assembly sequence
  Select the parts or assemblies to be included in the assembly sequence

  • Select parts and assemblies
  Break down the selection

  • Document and export assembly sequence
  Test assembling parts and assemblies to ensure the sequence is correct and practical

  • Assemble parts and assemblies
  Save the assembly sequence

  • Document and export assembly sequence

• Export parts from Halocline Assembly to Halocline Layout

  Select the desired parts or assemblies to be exported

  • Select parts and assemblies
  Select the "Export" option in the menu

  • VR menu | Halocline Assembly
  Select "CAD-Fine" for exporting parts

  • Options for CAD import
  The objects are now available in Halocline Layout in the VR library

  • VR library

• Direct import of parts into the VR library

  Alternatively, parts and assemblies can be directly imported as CAD files into Halocline Layout

  • Import data
  Use the "CAD-Fine" option during the CAD import of product data

  • Options for CAD import

  • VR library

Import Your Equipment

We provide you with a variety of library elements that you can import into your VR Library and save. These can then be placed in Halocline Layout and customized to meet your needs.

Import Your 2D Layout

If you already have existing 2D layouts, you can use them as templates in Halocline.

Use Point Clouds

Use point clouds as 3D templates for recreating objects in virtual reality.
