Technology Overview

This technology represents a pioneering approach in CAD systems, focusing on a server architecture that supports scalability, CAD-agnostic operations, and improved efficiency. By addressing critical issues such as long loading times and the cumbersome process of translating CAD data across different systems, this project aims to significantly reduce design cycle times and foster better collaboration within Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems.


Key Advantages

  • Scalable server architecture capable of handling large assemblies and multiple users
  • CAD-agnostic database schema that eliminates the need for data translation between different CAD systems
  • Implementation of occlusion culling techniques to reduce CAD load times
  • Automated unit tests to ensure system reliability and efficiency

Problems Addressed

  • Long loading times for large CAD assemblies
  • Inefficiencies in translating CAD data between various systems
  • Limited scalability in existing CAD system architectures

Market Applications

  • Enhancement of collaborative capabilities in PLM systems
  • Reduction of design cycle times in manufacturing and design processes
  • Provision of a unified platform for diverse CAD system operations
