The
Challenge:
When Julio C. Banks, Senior Advanced Analyst, was faced with a
challenging engineering problem recently, he chose IronCAD as his
primary tool for solving it. The problem: a 20-piece manufacturing
run of expensive turbojet engine hubs ($15,000 each) was
improperly processed. Rather than scrap the parts, Julio was
tasked with determining whether the parts could be modified and
salvaged.
IronCAD
the Productivity Solution:
IronCAD's Design Flow architecture enabled Julio to make
design changes and iterations easily, without having to fight with
the constraint systems which entangle most traditional CAD systems
Summary
-
After several iterations, I
found a satisfactory solution to the problem.
-
We were able to salvage the
parts for a savings of $300,000.
-
IronCAD played a key role in
reaching a successful solution.
"IronCAD
allowed me to spend more time on the engineering problem itself,
rather than learning how the solid modeling software works."
- Julio C. Banks, P.E.

The
Challenge:
Mr. Schorn, system engineer of the Operation Research department
of DASA Dornier GmbH, selected IronCAD as his favorite 3D solid
modeler, because IronCAD's hyper-operability capabilities and it's
unique tools are in a single environment. There is no other
comparable 3D solid modeler that could offer him this quality and
functionality.
IronCAD
the Productivity Solution:
IronCAD enables Dasa Dornier GmbH to receive significant
calculation results in shortest time. The great number of
integrated import and export filters, the animation capabilities
and the photo-realistic rendering as well as the ease of use make
IronCAD the program of choice for DASA.
Summary
-
Using IronCAD, a universally
applicable 3D simulation instrument was built that
demonstrates loading simulations of the the TRANSALL C-160
cargo plane.
-
IronCAD makes it easy to build
component groups and to supress or unsupress these groups
for collision checking.
-
IronCAD's animation capabilities
let me generate the needed simulations in the shortest time
and enables me via the positioning tool, TriBall, to adjust
animation paths in a very simple method.
"IronCAD
gives the freedom to freely design the 3D models and the simple
handling in 3D space helps me save time, time which I then have
available to interpret the calculation results." - Mr. Schorn
