Description

Cognitive Design by CDS offers an advanced concurrent engineering platform tailored for OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers in the Aerospace, Defense, and Automotive sectors. Utilizing a unique implicit-geometry engine, this platform seamlessly integrates generative design techniques, manufacturing constraints, simulation analysis, and AI-driven design exploration into a single cohesive system. Engineers are able to rapidly generate and evaluate high-performance concepts while incorporating design for manufacturability constraints early in the process, including considerations for Casting, Machining, and Metal Additive Manufacturing. Moreover, it streamlines and automates workflows across entire product lines, significantly reducing design time and minimizing the need for rework at later stages. This innovative solution is utilized by industry leaders not only in Japan but also throughout Europe and the United States, enhancing collaboration and efficiency across global markets.

Description

Liberate designers from mundane and repetitive tasks that drain their time and creativity. The process of preparing intricate drawings can be both laborious and prone to mistakes, consuming valuable time that could be better spent on high-impact activities rather than mere busywork. Conventional techniques for generating 2D fabrication drawings often result in significant time wastage, which can prolong project timelines and escalate operational expenses. Engineers with expertise frequently find themselves ensnared in monotonous drawing tasks, hindering them from concentrating on the more intricate and innovative components of their projects. Furthermore, the manual drawing approach is vulnerable to human errors, which can lead to discrepancies and inaccuracies that may trigger serious manufacturing challenges downstream. Consequently, delays in design and drafting can result in halted production lines. Teams aim to maintain continuous and seamless operation of their manufacturing processes to optimize overall efficiency. DraftAid eliminates the friction and errors associated with drawing, ensuring a smoother workflow. Seamlessly integrating with your current CAD software, DraftAid enhances your existing processes while allowing designers to focus on what truly matters. By streamlining the drawing process, it not only saves time but also significantly boosts productivity and accuracy in design workflows.
