Cortona3D RapidAuthor is a robust, adaptable authoring suite that lets organisations create every kind of support documentation — interactive parts catalogues, maintenance manuals, training materials and work instructions. It reuses existing CAD data or other 3D sources to produce interactive 3D publications with minimal effort and shorter timelines, and the tools are intuitive enough to require no prior CAD or 3D experience. Each tool ships with the Cortona2D Editor Pro and wizards that streamline much of the authoring process. RapidAuthor is modular, so you acquire only the components you need and expand later.
RapidAuthor components
- RapidManual — develop 3D interactive electronic technical manuals, operational procedures and assembly instructions from released engineering data, for operations, servicing, maintenance or repair.
- RapidCatalog — build illustrated parts catalogues: online, interactive catalogues with drill-down navigation that reduce ordering and purchasing mistakes.
- RapidLearning — create HTML training applications that merge 3D procedures with educational content; the result can run standalone or inside an existing LMS.
- RapidIllustrator — generate exploded views and 2D/3D illustrations from 3D geometry for parts catalogues, procedures, job cards and other manufacturing and after-sales documentation.
