Challenge: design standard that has evolved over decades
Over the years, the company has developed a specific methodology - well thought-out, reusable and tailored to your design practice. This is contained in your 3D models: Feature structures, parametrics, sets of rules, model hierarchies.
Problem of conventional migration
Standard formats such as STEP or IGES only transfer geometry - but no intelligence. Your models end up as "dead" solids in the target system. Feature logics, histories and model structure are lost.
Our approach: Feature-based CAD migration
With our method, we not only capture and transfer the geometry, but also the conceptual model behind the component.Your feature structures, design principles and reuse logic are retained - in the new system, traceable and capable of further development.
