Case Study: Aero-safe Technologies Inc. achieves seamless precision manufacturing and faster design-to-production with IronCAD

The Right CAD System for Manufacturing Precision Parts

Aero-safe Technologies Inc., a precision parts and assemblies supplier serving aerospace, satellite communications, life support, defense, optical, and medical industries, needed a CAD system that could work with many customer file formats, support strong modeling, and be easy to learn. The company also wanted a solution that would integrate with its new CAM workflow and help it keep up with customers moving to solid-model-driven design. IronCAD was selected after an exhaustive search.

IronCAD implemented a CAD solution with broad import/export support and the ability to work in ACIS and Parasolid kernels, helping Aero-safe move engineering data more seamlessly from customers into manufacturing. As a result, Aero-safe reduced time spent reworking files, started fixture design earlier in the quote stage, and identified manufacturing issues sooner. The company reported that even new CAD users became productive quickly, and IronCAD’s support was described as excellent.
