How to Ensure Quality Control When Converting Mylars to 3D CAD
How to Ensure Quality Control When Converting Mylars to CAD Many organizations have large inventories of old Mylar drawings. (Mylar is a trade name for BOPET (biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate) polyester film, which has been widely used by...
How to Go to the Cloud with NDT Data
How to Go to the Cloud with NDT Data Perhaps before we talk about “how” to go the Cloud with NDT, we should talk about “why” you should go to the Cloud. Quite simply, as so many industries have discovered, Cloud computing increases efficiency and helps cut overhead...
How to Leverage Existing 2D CAD Data to Simplify 3D Design
How to Leverage Existing 2D CAD Data to Simplify 3D Design Don’t stop using good design data just because it’s stored in 2D drawings. You can leverage your existing 2D CAD data to create new designs using virtually any 3D design software to simplify your design...

How Deviation Analysis aids Inspection in Aerospace & Defense. When it comes to production downtimes, the tangible and intangible costs can be overwhelming as well as detrimental to manufacturing organizations. One of the best ways to quickly jump these costly and...
Benefits of Virtual Simulation for Engineering Managers
Success can be measured by many standards. In product engineering, manufacturing and production, success is often measured by three standards: (1) profitability; (2) competitiveness; and, (3) design. It’s no accident that I listed them in this order. Regardless of a...
CAD and PLM
CAD and PLM PLM software is as much a part of manufacturing as CAD software. In fact, in some ways the two go hand-in-hand, PLM being the data management tool for design and engineering. PLM helps to drive the product lifecycle in an organization. PLM systems aid...
