RESULT IN BRIEF
Custom configuration of ergonomic assembly workstations with drag-and-drop functionality in the browser
Visualization of the Electrostatic Protected Area (EPA) for enhanced safety and automatic plausibility checks
Download of 2D and 3D CAD data, 3D PDF datasheet, and export to Parasolid
CONFIGURATION OF ASSEMBLY WORKSTATIONS
With the item workstation configurator, users can design their individual ergonomic workstation for manual production. Smart features, such as the visualization of the Electrostatic Protected Area (EPA), ensure additional safety and time savings.
Within the application, the end user can configure a workbench with various extras directly in the browser using drag-and-drop. Plausibility checks automatically exclude incorrect combinations.
FILE FORMAT DOWNLOAD: EXPORT TO PARASOLID
Afterwards, component information is transmitted via XML, and the 3D model is generated at runtime. As usual with our solutions, the product data can be downloaded in various file formats, including 2D and 3D CAD data, a 3D PDF datasheet, and export to Parasolid.
