As the shift towards 3D design and BIM progresses, what are the important points to consider when selecting 2D CAD? 2

図研アルファテック 図研アルファテック
In the future, it is predicted that the demand for cost reduction in 2D CAD will arise due to the need for the introduction of expensive systems such as 3D CAD, PDM, BIM, and CIM. However, even in such circumstances, designers must be provided with a reliable CAD with a sufficient number of licenses. The production management department is likely always troubled by this contradictory challenge. The solution to that problem is BricsCAD. There are three reasons why our company, which has been developing add-ons for AutoCAD since its founding, recommends this product: - The developer, Bricsys, is a key member of the non-profit organization "ODA (Open Design Alliance)" that provides .dwg software libraries, ensuring high reliability. - The drafting features are as user-friendly as high-end products. - It is offered with a perpetual license at a low price. You can also download a trial version from our website. You can experience performance that is the same as the product version. Please make use of it. For more details about the product, please check the related product page or catalog.

What are the important points for selecting 2D CAD?

BricsCAD, which also considers future 3D capabilities. A single platform that connects 2D, 3D, and BIM all through .dwg.

Currently, in the manufacturing and construction industries, there has been an increase in companies shifting from 2D CAD to 3D CAD design. However, the actual adoption of 3D design varies by field and product. While it is becoming more common in sectors like automotive and consumer electronics, many companies in industrial machinery and construction still rely on 2D CAD for their designs. In the context of digitalization in manufacturing, such as smart factories, and considering new initiatives like BIM and i-Construction in the construction industry, it is essential to think about hybrid CAD operations that incorporate 3D and BIM in the future. BricsCAD is a unique all-in-one platform that connects 2D, 3D, and BIM through .dwg files. It allows for the creation of 3D data from previously created 2D design data, as well as the ability to import high-end 3D CAD data, process it in .dwg format, and easily convert it to 2D, enabling seamless operation between 2D and 3D. We encourage you to consider a CAD solution that allows you to continue your current 2D design processes without difficulty while preparing for future advancements. *You can download a free trial version from the related links.

"Prototype casting, mass production, crack repair" We repair cracks in metal products without applying heat.

  • NEW
  • CATALOG

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact to the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If you require a detailed technical explanation, please contact us.
