 Design Automation Examples
Below are a few examples of customisations we have supplied to automate some of our our clients' design and data management processes:
Architectural Metal Design and Manufacturing:
| |
| Automated creation of complete spiral staircase assembly drawings, as well as detail drawings of steps, handrails, ballustrades etc., based on a few user input values
|
Marine, Transport and Automotive:
| | |
| Automatic calculation of the number of gear rings required in industrial-sized gear boxes based on a few user input values
| |
| Automatic production of propeller assembly and blade detail drawings based on figures passed from an aerodynamic shape calculation program
| |
| Entirely automated design of optimal heavy-duty batteries from individual cells, including calculation of fit and packaging requirements, based on user input of box size, voltage, current and lifetime requirements
| |
| Automated brake pipe bending jig design, where specialised clamps for bending machines are automatically designed based on drawings of the pipes they need to machine
| |
| Automated Web-based emergency vehicle configuration and drawing generation based on choice menu selections
|
Water, Power and Utilities:
| | |
| Automatic creation of terrain cross-section drawings, showing pipes routed in a 3D model created from survey information
| |
| Electric power distribution grid control and mapping: A direct database link between drawings showing an entire regional electrical power distribution and the control centre, allowing engineers to control power breakers in the field, for example, from the drawing
| |
| Automatic transmission tower (pylon) design and detailing system, which creates all tower assembly and detail drawings based on a set of user-determined parameters
| |
| Automated design and take-off of HVAC systems based on an arrangement drawing, automatically producing all detail drawings and updating design data to manufacturing systems
| |
| Automatic creation of electrical disc insulator drawings with different profiles based on simple input dialog
|
Chemical Processing:
| | |
| Integration of a new 3D system and analysis tools with existing CAD/CAM environment, to include automatic pump inducer model creation from value tables, and automatic drawing production, including developed sheet metal designs for manufacturing
|
General Data Management Applications:
| | |
| Automated plotting systems; e.g. the automatic creation and management of PDFs of drawings issued for release
| |
| Automated regeneration of PDF files of vault drawings after changes occur
