YoctoniQ
YoctoniQ is Yocto's own geometric software platform: the mathematical algorithms and optimization tools behind every Yocto development.
YoctoniQ is the engine behind everything Yocto builds. It is our own software platform of advanced mathematical algorithms and optimization tools for working with 3D CAD geometry. Born from years of hands-on automation experience as the Yocto Kernel, it has grown into the platform it is today.
From CAD model to usable data
A 3D model contains far more than its shape. YoctoniQ reads the exact geometry from the model and interprets what it means for production:
- Recognition: welded constructions, assemblies, sheet metal parts, tubes and profiles, purchased parts and production features are recognised automatically.
- Extraction: dimensions, material volumes, metadata and bills of materials are extracted into clean, structured formats such as JSON, CSV or text.
- Processing: from that geometry YoctoniQ derives what a machine or a downstream system needs, such as cutting contours, toolpaths and machine programs.
Because YoctoniQ works on the model itself, there is no export, no redrawing and no second copy of the geometry to keep in sync.
One kernel, many solutions
Every Yocto development builds on the same kernel:
- Custom software: the digital bridge between your CAD environment and your machinery, ERP, CAM or quoting system. See our services.
- CIMnext: work preparation, calculation and quotation software for the metal industry.
- Link2Mecanic: wire EDM programming straight from the 3D model inside SpaceClaim.
Every improvement to YoctoniQ benefits all of these at once, and what we learn in one project flows back into the kernel.
Why it matters for you
Because the hard geometric work is already solved in YoctoniQ, we can focus on your specific process. That allows us to deliver custom-tailored developments faster and more reliably than building from scratch.
