Uses & Benefits

Three-D Modeling and computer animation provide a host of short and long-term benefits to the marketing, design, and management professional.  The following list reviews several of these benefits.

Marketing

  • Presentations - Concisely present your Manufacturing Assembly Design and Process
  • Raise Capital - Raise funding for expanded efforts
  • Design & Production
  • Test Designs Concepts - Interactively test theories, configurations, and process designs
  • 3D asset re-use - The re-use of 3D CAD models exploits a sunk cost to help make manufacturing and assembly more effective.
  • Shorten time to market with better processes - 3D models enable digital process design and animation simulation prior to manufacturing.

Management

  • More effective manufacturing assembly - Interactive 3D animations offer clear step-by-step instructions to guide workers and reduce errors.
  • More effective maintenance and repair - Step-by-step disassembly and repair guidance to improve field service productivity and guide customer self-service via a website.
  • Shorter training - Interactive & animated step-by- step instruction to accelerate training.
  • Multi-lingual Collaboration - Cross-border communications are increased using 3D animations instead of translated text.
  • Ease of use - Animations and simulations are easily operated via mouse with high-resolution exploded parts that enable users to pause, stop, play, zoom, and examine the assembly line at any point.
  • Auto updating - Automatically update measurements, annotations, numbering, and headers in new documents when 3D data is modified.

Legal

  • Patent Applications and Protection - Ensure patent applications are explained thoroughly as well as providing key protection from outside clients.
  • Safety / OSHA - Ensure workers are aware of safety steps and procedures
