As the shift to 3D design and BIM progresses, what are the important points to consider when selecting 2D CAD? 2

図研アルファテック 図研アルファテック
In the future, as the introduction of expensive systems such as 3D CAD, PDM, BIM, and CIM is required, it is anticipated that cost reductions for 2D CAD will be necessary. However, even in such situations, designers must be provided with a reliable CAD with sufficient licenses. The production management department is likely to be constantly troubled by these conflicting challenges. The solution to that problem is BricsCAD. There are three reasons why we recommend this product, developed by our company, which has been creating add-ons for AutoCAD since its founding. ■ The developer, Bricsys, is a key member of the non-profit organization "ODA (Open Design Alliance)" that provides .dwg software libraries, ensuring high reliability. ■ The drafting features are as user-friendly as high-end products. ■ It is offered with a perpetual license at a low price. You can also download a trial version from our website. You can experience performance identical to the product version. Please make use of it. ▼ For more details about the product, please check the related product page or catalog ▼

What are the important points for selecting 2D CAD?

BricsCAD, which also considers future 3D capabilities. A single platform that connects 2D, 3D, and BIM all through .dwg.

Currently, in the manufacturing and construction industries, an increasing number of companies have shifted from 2D CAD to 3D CAD design. However, the actual adoption of 3D design varies by field and product; while it is becoming common in sectors like automotive and consumer electronics, many companies in industrial machinery and construction still rely on 2D CAD for their designs. In the context of digitalization in manufacturing, such as smart factories, and new initiatives in construction like BIM and i-Construction, it is essential to consider a hybrid CAD operation that incorporates 3D and BIM in the future. BricsCAD is a unique all-in-one platform that connects 2D, 3D, and BIM through .dwg files. It allows for the creation of 3D data from previously created 2D design data, as well as the import of high-end 3D CAD data, which can be processed and easily converted to 2D in .dwg format, enabling seamless operation between 2D and 3D. We encourage you to consider a CAD solution that allows you to continue your current 2D design processes smoothly while preparing for future advancements. *You can download a free trial version from the related links.

HK-2

Recommended for earthquake measures for automatic doors and equipment! Seismic device HK-2.

  • NEW
  • PRODUCT

Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" For more details, please download the materials or contact us.
