Case Study: Shibuya Hoppmann accelerates design search and quoting with CADDi

Shibuya Hoppmann finds reference drawings in seconds with CADDi

Shibuya Hoppmann, a manufacturer of industrial packaging machines, faced a significant challenge in utilizing its vast library of hundreds of thousands of past design drawings. Its aftermarket and sales teams struggled with time-consuming and inconsistent searches for relevant historical designs when handling new customer requests and RFQs, which hindered efficiency and increased lead times. They turned to CADDi and its AI-powered platform to solve this problem.

CADDi implemented its AI-empowered search tools to streamline the process of finding similar past designs. The solution could search based on text, metadata, or even the shape of the drawings themselves and automatically link relevant production and historical data. This drastically reduced the time to find a reference from up to an hour to just a few seconds, accelerating both the design and sales quoting processes and enabling better collaboration between teams.
