Quotes that build their own models.
A salesperson picks the options. DriveWorks builds the 3D model, the drawings, and the parts list from those choices, and nobody has to retype a thing. We’ve set it up for shops that build to order, usually along with the part-number and PDM cleanup it depends on.
The rules are the real work.
DriveWorks is only as good as the rules behind it. We capture how your product changes from order to order and connect the results to PDM, so the models it builds behave like the ones your engineers make by hand. Keystone and DriveWorks are built to work together, so passing information between them is simple.
Keystone already saves a locked data package on each model for DriveWorks to read. An Excel version that DriveWorks can import directly, with every value labeled by where it came from and blanks left blank instead of guessed, is almost finished.
Where it pays off.
Think products that come in lots of sizes, options, left- and right-hand versions, or materials. If your engineers keep rebuilding models that are almost the same, we measure that time first, and it’s the first time you get back.
