Step 2 MDTools converter and MDTools gives
manifold block manufacturers a competitive edge |
Issues faced by manifold block manufacturers: |
 |
Need to quickly and accurately quote manifolds. |
 |
Need to catch design errors before machining. Avoid scrapping manifolds, with consequent money loss and targets missed. |
 |
Need to check the circuit of a manifold, though the 3d model comes from another CAD system. |
 |
Need to suggest design modifications to customers. |
 |
Need to modify manifold designs, though most of the job work comes from other designers with different CAD systems. |
|
|
Benefits for block manufacturers: |
 |
Use Manifold AutoQuote cloud based real-time manifold quotation system. |
 |
Extract a manifold net list, and check it against the hydraulic circuit. |
 |
Check manifold design before machining: wall thickness and wrong connections. |
 |
Modify a manifold and show customer a 3d model for approval. |
 |
Port data from MDTools design to a CAM system. |
 |
Redesign a manifold with MDTools manifold design software. MDTools has embedded manifold design data and logic enabling design within hours, not days. Also includes powerful automated design checks: wall thickness, circuit, quality of connections, manufacturability, energy efficiency... |
