AUTOMATED DIMENSION DRAWINGS FOR OFFER CREATION

Tortec is Austria’s leading fire protection door manufacturer, specializing in architecturally high-quality custom solutions.

Based in Wolfsegg, Upper Austria, Tortec, part of the Hörmann Group, produces fire protection doors and gates for high-demand projects both domestically and across Europe. Their door product portfolio is characterized by a wide variety of options, with consistently high-quality aesthetics for all fire protection requirements and multi-purpose applications.

In 2020, Tortec approached us to generate automated dimension drawings for offer creation. The configuration of fire protection doors was to continue using the existing product configurator and offer system.

The Implementation

Using our CADClick® technology, models are controlled via predefined parameters, delivering the required dimension drawings. Data generation is handled directly by Tortec, with their staff trained by KiM Project Manager Oliver Kunz.

We began with a proof of concept, followed by regular meetings to guide the 2D/3D model data creation and project implementation. The Tortec team tackled these complex tasks with dedication and success. The models created now form the foundation for future 3D visualizations and BIM output.

After roughly a year of development and internal testing, the automated dimension drawing generation was presented to the public at the “BAU” trade fair in April 2023. The official go-live within the Hörmann offer and order system took place following the event. We appreciate the positive feedback on integrating CADClick®-based dimension drawings.

With the implementation of Tortec‘s fire protection doors, we proudly showcase another successful project where CADClick® integrates seamlessly into existing configurator systems and digital workflows, extending them with 2D/3D CAD/BIM data.
