CraniMAX Crane Software Ports to Bricscad V9
 GHENT,
Belgium, Oct 1, 2008 - Bricsys and Germany-based craniMAX announce that the
craniMAX software portfolio has been successfully ported to Bricscad V9.
The Cranimation software uses Bricscad V9 to show immediately outrigger
loads and ground pressure through duty charts. The calculation and capacity
checks are done in real-time.
 Cranimation allows designers to move digital models of cranes within
their degrees- of-freedom. Cranes can be erected, assembled, and
disassembled in 3D, using the dimensions and specifications provided by
crane manufacturers.
With Bricscad V9, the software enables a realistic representation of
resource scheduling and provides collision detection. This ensures that
tower cranes do not collide with any obstacles, even as changes occur on the
work site.
Michael Koelsch, founder and CEO of craniMAX, explains: "craniMAX is a
worldwide player within a very specialized vertical market. Thanks to our
direct relationship with all major crane manufacturers, we have the most
complete software suite in the field. With Bricscad V9 as our new graphical
engine, we can deliver unmatched simulation capabilities in areas where
planning of this kind is crucial and mission-critical.”
“Traditionally, we have has large contractors as clients. craniMAX is a
new application that adds real value to Bricscad V9,” continues Erik De
Keyser, CEO of Bricsys. “This software offers unique features to allow
professionals to plan the locations of cranes on building sites in 3D, as
well as to simulate all crane movements and to determine the limits of
movement relative to the building.”
The craniMAX software suite will be distributed and supported by Bricsys
on four continents.
