Company: Ankarsrum Motors AB

Industry: Mechanical Machinery - Consumer Products

Location: Sweden

The Challenge:
Finding a CAD system that would allow greater flexibility and creativity in design and one that would also allow a user to work on existing designs without having to worry about breaking constraints and re-educating themselves on the structure of the model.

IronCAD the Productivity Solution:
IronCAD provided the perfect solution by offering a system that does not require a user to administer constraints. IronCAD's Freedom Architecture allows Ankarsrum Motors to create designs quickly and efficiently, without the inherent problems associated with constraint based modelers. Ankarsrum Motors are now over 100% more productive in their design group. Now designers can open up previously created designs without having to worry about the constraints setup in the model and may manipulate the designs without the fear of breaking the models structure.

Summary

• 100% more productivity when compared to prior systems of Pro/E and Caddes5.
• The rendering capabilities of IronCAD allow much easier communication of concepts.
• Engineers are able to act as designers, not as CAD users. They can design without having to pre-visualize the final model.

"IronCAD has made the design process much more efficient and effective allowing our designers more flexibility and freedom in their work than ever before. We could never be this efficient in Pro/E or other constraint based systems." - Anders Uddman
