During the past several years MULTI-CONVEYOR has transitioned several of the traditional, 2D CAD design positions into 3D Solid Modeling seats within our Engineering, Design & Developement department. The initial cost, in time and money, was significant however a decision was made that this was the direction that we wished to move our designers towards. That decision, along with an emphasis on the standardization of parts, has helped improve efficiencies in every aspect of the design, fabrication and assembly of our Custom Conveyors.
Along with a more efficient manufacturing process, the move towards 3D Design modeling has greatly improved design quality of our products because it is a more complete process than 2D design. As a result, many human errors that can occur with traditional 2D design methods are avoided. In the past problems such as component collisions, incorrect quantities or parts that don't fit, would happen because a designer who works in only 2D is forced to hold much of the information mentally. It is this point that gives rise to errors because the brain CANNOT visualize to exact scale. Reducing human error by using 3D Modeling Design methods has helped to minimize the need for re-work because the design quality improved greatly.
