Enhanced productivity for manufacturers

Enhanced productivity for manufacturers

Unleashing 3D CAD design information from within the engineering department to flow through an organisation and onto the supply chain, Bristol-based company Xype has recently been appointed as the UK Master Reseller of the market-leading publishing technology, Seemage.

Best known for work within the aerospace industry, with clients such as Airbus and BAE Systems, Xype helps manufacturing and engineering companies increase productivity by the potential of IT systems. With Seemage's powerful capabilities to enable end-users to create rich product deliverables, Xype can now bring the benefits of 3D CAD information and product metadata out of the proprietary world and integrate it across the enterprise. The Seemage product suite allows a company's existing 3D product information to be additionally utilised across departments such as manufacturing, shop floor assembly,technical publications, service support, sales, marketing and distribution.

From generating high-specification 3D illustrations to interactive animations of assembly, installation or operational sequences, Seemage allows traditionally unwieldy CAD data to be easily accessed on standard desktop PCs and produces lightweight, XML- based files which do not require a CAD license – thus opening up exciting new marketing, service, support and production opportunities for manufacturers in the UK.

With ever increasing pressures on manufacturers to perform, being able to further use their valuable CAD design assets to effectively share technical information across both the internal and external enterprise helps organisations make significant improvements in critical areas such as time to market, customer satisfaction and ultimately profitability.
