3DVIA Virtools

Virtools in use at PSAVirtools has been widely used by the games industry and has significant potential for the wider commercial and academic markets, especially in product design, owing to its seamless integration with CATIA. As well as the ability to create top notch demos for presentations and VR environments in, for example, automotive seating bucks, there are additional modules which can give extra capabilities, such as physical properties to CAD models.

As part of Dassault Systèmes, Virtools slots into that Company’s Product Lifecycle Management solution, which is used by industrial giants like PSA, Boeing and EADS. Using advanced real-time, 3D content development tools and a proven production process, Virtools is the long-time market leader in delivering a high quality, efficient and cost-effective method of developing a virtual environment and in applying interactivity to 3D models.

Virtalis is the only reseller for Virtools in the UK and has recently installed the system at a couple of its more hush-hush clients, as well as for academic customers like the University of the West of England. We also provide Virtools training.


“Virtools has a wide range of capabilities and can be used by non programmers, because it has a toolset-based system that allows you to do all the straight forward things quickly and easily.” - Tim Goodwin, System Modeller
