We customise CAD for automation. Automation of CAD operations is useful when the designing and drafting processes are complex and time-consuming. CAD Customisation is mainly used in the manufacturing sector where the overall process time is less so the company makes more profit.
CAD Automation is used mainly for four reasons:
Industries that make large products containing hundreds of components, customise their CAD operations. Often such products are modified to suit individual clients' needs. Generally, the companies want to make design changes in less time and accurately. Industries manufacturing caravans, cabinets, and buses/truck bodies prefer to customise their CAD operations.
To make a process automatic in a CAD program, we write a script using a compatible programming language that calls the desired functions as needed. This script will appear as a button in the CAD program interface. The user will need to click on it to begin the process. We can automate one or more processes depending on the user input.
Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.
CAD automation is the way to operate CAD software. For example, to mirror a geometry, we turn on the mirror tool from the toolbar, select the geometry to mirror, press Enter or Esc and click at two locations: point 1 and point 2 (about which we want to mirror the shape), press Enter or Esc to finish the command. Using CAD Automation, we click on the macro button, select the geometry, and press Enter or Esc to complete the command, and it mirrors the geometry, horizontally or vertically. So four clicks and two keys are replaced by two clicks and one key.
CAD software featuring application programming interface (API) can be automated. Such software can be programmed internally using Visual Studio for Application or externally by linking it to a coding software.
No. We are not resellers of software. You will need to own a suitable CAD program licence for us to work on it.
