Design Automation

Faced with competing demands for engineering productivity, faster time to market, improved product quality, and lower product costs, the answer is to work smarter not harder.

Design Automation works by building intelligence into a digital definition of a product so that it can be used to quickly create a new design within minutes ensuring a consistent quality on product that would usually take weeks to develop. Our version of Design Automation is based on  Pro/ENGINEER Wildfireä. By setting up a generic master Pro/ENGINEER model in the right way, companies can create a 3D representation of the product and add known design rules to build up a complete knowledge based system of a range of products. Once developed companies can quickly create variations of the design to produce a bespoke solution for their customers and generate new OEM versions efficiently. Not only does this give companies an effective way to product new products fast, it also provides an accurate costing solution with a complete Bills of Material and product representation for the customer within hours of ordering.

Engine assembly and parts designed in Pro/Engineer, with intelligent features.

 This knowledge based development system provides the ability to build a completely new variation with a simple front-end dialog box or web page by simply selecting the required options and specifying the required design size constraints. This information is then used to build a product to the desired size and configuration based on the specified options and dimensions using the design rules specified for the product.

Design Automation web page produced by Elite Consulting to control the design  by entering 2 variables, causing the model (assembly and parts), the drawings and the bill of material to regenerate automatically.

Design Automation is a reality that can be achieved with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfireä and the expertise of Elite Consulting. We are able to work with companies to gain an understanding of the design criteria and to build intelligence into the 3D model. This is achieved by using the powerful Parametric and fully associative design tools within Pro/ENGINEER Wildfireä where the functional design of product can be capture to produce a reusable design configuration tool. The continuous development of the digital definition will inevitably result in a consistent and ever improving quality of the core product range leaving more time for new innovative product development.

At Elite Consulting we have the experience helping companies to improve process, increase productivity and improve the quality of the design through the use of the PTC CAD software Pro/ENGINEER Wildfireä.
