[Case Study of 3D CAD Software for Mechanical Design] Aichi Machine Industry Co., Ltd.
COLMINA Design and Manufacturing Support iCAD SX
[Free Case Study Provided] A case study of a CAD that is suitable for production equipment design and has strong data compatibility!
We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of "iCAD SX" at Aichi Machine Industry Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the manufacturing of small automobiles, as well as automobile engines and transmissions. The company had been using 2D CAD for many years, but following the introduction of high-end CAD in the development department, it was decided to also implement 3D CAD in the manufacturing equipment department. By efficiently combining design reviews and layout considerations utilizing 3D, along with 2D design, they have achieved improved design productivity. 【Case Overview】 ■ Background of Implementation - Decided to introduce 3D CAD to strengthen collaboration with the development department. ■ Results - Demonstrated excellent compatibility with CAD for automobile design, allowing for quick initiation of equipment design. - Enabled fixture design that considers space in 3D, such as avoiding tools entering from two diagonal directions in the machining center, contributing to internal design reviews. - Rich drawing functions reduced the number of touches by 20% compared to conventional 2D CAD. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

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.
