With the global outbreak of COVID-19, businesses have hit rock-bottom. While some manufacturers fear losses, other predicts a steep rise with new laid norms and operational challenges. At this juncture, the critical need for profitability raises a need for new business strategies.
The new mantra: Manufacture fast and without errors
One of the ways to achieve this is reduction in design cycle time by eliminating drawing changes. A competent CAD drafting Services partner can help reduce drawing changes to almost nil by aligning initial drafts with the shop’s tooling capabilities.
What are the challenges in engineering design cycles?
Incompetent CAD drawings for shop floor needs
Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) in manufacturing drawings from shop floor
CAD models that are not versatile
Limited knowledge of automation tools like Drive Works, Tacton and other platforms
Iterative prototype testing and budget constraints
Overcoming the challenges: Collaborating with a CAD design support company
An external support from a design and drafting support partner can not only help you with high quality drafting but also optimize time because of their expertise. Outsource CAD support partners are virtually an extended design arm for your product design, development and engineering teams.
1. Product design and engineering: Save on costs and get better quality
Offshore design support companies have on their rolls dedicated CAD drafters and industrial design engineers well-versed with industry leading CAD tools to support your design engineering tasks.
2. Design automation: Get the benefit of shorter design cycles
Another major reason to collaborate with external design firms is their competency to implement automation to eliminate repetitive tasks. They develop versatile master models that can be customized at later stages as per customer needs.
3. CAE: Test new designs and obtain proofs for new design concepts
While there are manufacturers who have pressing needs to meet deliveries, there are several verticals that have come to a stand-still due to the pandemic. Design engineers contributing to these verticals are currently dedicating their time to inventing new designs.
Some benefits of CAE include:
Tool based testing with ANSYS CFX or ANSYS Fluent are cost effective
Virtual prototype testing give fast, safe, and accurate results
Design concepts proofs are available before manufacturing starts
Final words
At a time when the world fights an unknown enemy, manufacturers and design engineers, who contribute a fair share towards a better tomorrow, are advised to turn to time-tested solution of partnering with external experts.
