CATI to Sell Visual Components Digital Factory
 BUFFALO
GROVE, IL, May 7, 2008 - CATI, the first US SolidWorks provider, and a
one-stop, full-service solution for professional services, to offer a
complete 3D plant layout with robotics and material flow simulation in one
easy-to-use application.
This new partnership will bring cost-effective plant layout simulation to
CATI’s clients. This best-of-breed application for production line
validation is using plug-and-play equipment libraries based on 3D and 2D CAD
data.
Juha Renfors, CEO of Visual Components, remarked, “The Visual Components
Digital Factory is specifically suited to companies operating in the
construction of production assembly systems and this is a great fit to
CATI’s client base. CATI is very proactive in looking for ways to extend the
use of SolidWorks data to improve their customers business processes – and
with the Visual Components partnership we can certainly provide a boost in
that area.”
Visual Components is unique in that it offers the only robotics and
material flow simulation in one easy-to-use application. Also unique, is
that it allows for component and layout reuse throughout the project
lifecycle, “Visual Components will revolutionize the way our clients work
from sales proposals through PLC program validation all before the designs
are physically complete,” remarked Robert Konczal, CTO of CATI.
Some of the greatest benefits CATI clients will see when using this
software are a huge increased efficiency in sales and delivery of factory
ramp-up and production systems and processes. Clients will find an improved
product quality paired with lower manufacturing costs, as well as a
shortened product development time. Other benefits will be realized by many
departments and personnel such as visualization for marketing and sales,
plant layout tool for sales and factory engineers, simulation with trusted
results, simulation for production optimization and visualization of the
control mechanisms.
“By reusing engineering CAD data within 3DCreate, our clients will enjoy
another ROI boost on their initial investment of SolidWorks,” said Konczal.
