Your challenges

Your customers demand highly customized products, creating a situation where CAD designs must be drawn quickly and accurately. This puts engineers under pressure to quickly deliver accurate renderings of each customized product. Without a proper solution, designs are left up to guesswork and rework. Automate repetitive, inefficient operations that take up your engineers’ time with Design Automation.

Help your sales and engineering teams work better with Design Automation. Ensure detailed 2D and 3D configured product designs straight from your CAD system. Use Tacton to reduce order errors and automatically generate configuration-specific drawings and manufacturing information.

What Does Automation Design Software Do?

Automation technology can help optimize the process with various innovative features in a design studio. This includes parametric modeling, rule-based design, 3D visualization, and integration with other tools. It caters to engineers, product designers, and businesses that need to design products quickly and efficiently.

Using automation in design significantly speeds up the process. It allows businesses to create complex and customized products quickly and with fewer errors than designing them manually. It also helps make the team more productive with features like rule-based configuration, visualization, 2D and 3D design automation, and strong integration with existing systems.

Our Design Automation Software: Features

Automated 2D and 3D Designs

Automatically generate 2D drawings or 3D models based on specifications and custom designs. Our automation design software includes visualization tools to help users see changes in real time. These design automation tools enable users to experiment with practical applications in the design in just a few clicks, saving time and allowing them to see different components in action.

 

Configurator Tool

The configurator tool enables users to customize product designs efficiently based on predefined rules and constraints. Its main purpose is to streamline and validate the design process instantly, preventing it from creating an invalid configuration.

Once you set up your design for automation using the configurator tool, you’ll eliminate costly design errors that take time and money to repair.

Automation Scripts and Workflows

Gain access to a robust scripting language that allows you to program the software to perform tasks and sequences automatically within your CAD program. This is especially useful for eliminating repetitive and time-consuming tasks.

Our automation design software speeds up your engineer’s workflow considerably, freeing them up to focus on more productive parts of your project. Instead of having to manually maintain various processes, automation projects enable employees to focus their engineering knowledge on the design intent of the products, helping dramatically reduce time requirements.

 

CAD Integration

Our mechanical design automation solution can be integrated into all major CAD software, including AutoCAD, Catia, and Solidworks. Automation can be applied to tasks, such as detailed modeling and drafting.

In addition, our automation design software supports common CAD file formats to ensure interoperability with other design systems and engineering tools. This helps it to work seamlessly with the rest of your product design pipeline and costly design errors to deliver optimal solutions.
