A Canvas GFX Case Study
GlenDee MGI, a sub‑assembly manufacturer in aerospace & defense, faced a costly documentation bottleneck: only highly paid CAD engineers using expensive CAD packages could create the 2D renderings and technical illustrations required for manufacturing processes and AS9100 records. To address this, GlenDee MGI adopted Canvas GFX’s Canvas X3 to give broader teams access to 3D model views without buying full CAD licenses.
Canvas GFX implemented Canvas X3 across the organization so operators and managers can import, manipulate and export precise illustrations from 3D CAD models on their own workstations. The result eliminated multi‑person delays and reduced dependence on expensive CAD talent, speeding documentation and knowledge capture — one user produced an annotated installation sheet with BOM in about 30 minutes — delivering measurable time and cost savings and more efficient manufacturing workflows.
