Taming Costly CAD Data-Exchange Pitalls

Today, more and more automotive-centric supply chain vendors are being

squeezed by their customer’s mandates and quite oten unreasonable

demands. From the CEO to Engineering managers to production personal,

everyone eels the burdens o these demands. More oten than not these

demands are extremely costly and ironically even counter-productive.

We understand the challenges you ace every day and that is why we

have developed a solution to address all your needs in a single, low-costproduct entitled – IronCAD™ Design Collaboration Suite (IC-DCS).

From major automotive part manuacturers and their vendors, to small

automotive customization shops, IronCAD’s solution helps engineers

communicate eortlessly with these large automotive manuacturer’s

data. Dual ACIS and Parasolid kernels allow precise, error-ree import

and export o native SAT and X_T les as well as common le ormats like

GES, CATIA V4, and STEP. Add the low-cost TRANS bundle and even access

native ormats such as CATIA V5, Pro/E Granite, UG/NX, SolidWorks, and

nventor.

Use IronCAD’s Design Collaboration Suite to acilitate an open exchange

o ideas and rene projects. Share work between designers in the ofce

or customers in the eld regardless o what CAD program they use.Edit almost any imported les without recreating geometry by using

direct ace modeling or adding new intelligent 3D parts rom standard

component catalogs – a perect t or suppliers who work around other

engineer’s designs. IC-DCS provides advanced technology that combines

3D Direct modeling, 3D Parametric modeling and a ully unctional 2D

mechanical drating tool, all within the same application and using the

same geometry” thus allowing you to edit your customers data in any

shape o orm you desire and reuse and communicate your 2D Design in

standard ormats.

magine replacing all your high-end applications that are wearing a hole in

your wallet with IC-DCS and reduce your capital costs, expensive training

costs, and most importantly your high cost o ownership!
