Making Metrology Equipment More Efficiently

Challenge

Dissatisfied with its current CAD software — a mix of AutoCAD and Solidworks — Hexagon Metrology sought a new 3D design system that offered performance and flexibility and that facilitated collaboration at the heart of the innovative design process it has developed for its metrology equipment. The new system also needed to have the capacity to work with large volumes of legacy 2D data.

Solution

IRONCAD’s Innovative Design technology freed Hexagon’s engineers from the limitations of traditional 3D modeling software, enabling them to work without constraint and parametric relationships — unless they wanted to.

Results

75% more productive than Solidworks
