“Now at Schnaithmann we can create custom designs for our customers faster and with much higher quality within our flexible profile system, in the area of plant engineering the creation time for layout planning has been significantly reduced by IronCAD.”
Andreas Schnitzer , Senior Designer.
As an industry leader, Schnaithmann is always looking for ways to improve services to its customers. One way they were able to improve customer service was with IronCAD, using it to create a modular design system that allows their sales team to deliver 3D design concepts to customers quickly and efficiently in order to secure orders.
After evaluating various CAD systems including IronCAD, Schnaithmann realized that IronCAD provided a solution that would deliver above and beyond their needs. In addition, they realized that IronCAD products could be used in many areas of their business, not just in design.
To begin, they started by using IronCAD and its innovative design tools such as drag-and-drop functionality, the patented TriBall tool, and catalogs to rapidly build libraries of their components in 3D. Then they stored these completed parts and assemblies in new IronCAD catalogs to facilitate rapid machine creation using a modular design process when working with customers.
Furthermore, the Schnaithmann sales team was able to visit customers onsite with laptops running lightweight versions of the IronCAD. While on site, these sales representatives were able to build custom designs to order, getting the sign-off on the designs while with the customer. By using this component of IronCAD, Schnaithmann sales representative could also create bills of materials (BoM), pricing sheets, renderings, and animations while with a customer. This functionality led to significant increases in sales velocity.
Schnaithmann leveraged this speed gained through its modular design system as a competitive advantage to increase customer confidence, better meet their customers’ needs, and rapidly deploy design solutions, accelerating the growth of their business.
