Visualization of design! 3D CAD that realizes the advancement of work processes.
At "Nippon Steel Corporation Hiroshima Works," there were issues with changes in design information for large resin pellet manufacturing equipment (industrial machinery and plant facilities) that could not be covered by 2D planning drawings. The company decided to transition to 3D design with the aim of front-loading. After experiencing difficulties with a previously adopted history-based 3D CAD, they selected "iCAD SX," which does not suffer from slow response times even when handling tens of thousands of parts. As a result, they were able to enhance design reviews and disclose design information early through 3D models, leading to an acceleration of the design workflow and cost reductions through the compactification of equipment. **Main Benefits of Implementation** - Creation of overall planning drawings reduced by half (from 2 months to less than 1 month) - Significant reduction in assembly interference and a 20% reduction in design support personnel - Cost reduction through equipment compactification (e.g., 43% volume reduction) **Document Download** - Currently available for limited access on the special site.

basic information
iCAD Corporation's "COLMINA Design and Manufacturing Support iCAD SX" is a purely domestic 3D CAD specialized for machine equipment design. It continues to pursue a commitment to being "light" and "fast" through its unique CAD kernel technology, achieving overwhelming high-speed processing performance. In the design of large-scale machinery and entire production equipment lines, it can handle vast amounts of design information accumulated in 3D data with ease. The extensive "manufacturing information" accumulated can be utilized not only in design but also in manufacturing and maintenance services, contributing to the reduction of development lead times. It is adopted by many domestic companies and offers robust support unique to domestic development.

Company information
To support Japan's manufacturing, iCAD Corporation is developing the specialized 3D CAD 'iCAD SX V8' focused on mechanical design. iCAD achieves high-speed response, handling 3 million parts in 0.2 seconds, allowing for stress-free design consideration and verification of large-scale equipment and entire production lines consisting of tens of thousands of components. Leveraging its capability to handle vast amounts of information, it is possible to accumulate and utilize the design information necessary for equipment development, including piping, wiring, and control (motion), into a single CAD data set. This single data set can be utilized across various scenarios and departments, from design to manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance. This results in reduced development lead times and improved design quality.
