Advance Your Shop

The supply chain depends on your flexibility, responsiveness & specialized expertise

We develop technology & products for the 3D problem-solving unique to small and mid-size manufacturing

How manufacturing shops handle CAD data is distinct — we know, because we've been dedicated to this segment for 20+ years

Flexibility & Choice

We trust shops to know what they need to get their job done. Our tools fit in, to help bring new productivity to your established process

Any CAD is Native CAD

Getting different file types from different customers is no headache with our best-in-class tools. Be ready to work with whatever model comes your way

New Day, New Demands

You need to respond to different challenges every time new CAD data comes in from a customer: our tools are built around this reality

We're a small, specialized technology company focused on supporting shops looking to maximize their time & simplify working accurately with client-supplied files

Model-Based Definition:
the shift is underway

You have certainly heard talk about how model-based definition (MBD) is going to transform the industry. Maybe that sounds like hot air to you. Maybe it sounds like an expensive gamble. Maybe it sounds like something that only serves the large-scale operations like OEMs and primes. We have our own perspective:

MBD Connects Operations

You know all about getting a workpiece through your manufacturing systems to produce the deliverable. Fundamentally, MBD is just a new way to document that — the "digital thread" — and there are tools to help

MBD For Independence

Getting consistent data across multiple systems increases reliance on standard, non-proprietary formats like STEP. This is huge for independent shops: standard formats keep you in control of which systems you use

MBD Made Practical

Costly errors can creep in when the model and the drawings are separate — you've seen it happen. MBD provides a way to step around this obstacle, as well as take a step forward in inspection planning

We support end users in manufacturing in a wide variety of industries and specializations — all across the globe, all facing similar challenges

Innovation & Entrepreneurship

We are so committed to developing tools that let shops and other innovators do their work better that we created our own software development kit.

It's built to allow unconstrained data sharing and outperform legacy kernels developed before multi-processing hardware. It's how our end-user software adapts to each customer project — and gets jobs turned around fast

Serving independent shops for decades

We've been providing CAD-based tools and support to users in manufacturing for more than 20 years. From the beginning, our products have been developed around the diversity of application and category specialization typical of manufacturing.

Our software is not from the world of PLMs, ERPs, and other enterprise-based technology that tries to lock everything into a single system.
