Adoption of Automation to Reduce Time Spent on Design Tasks and Reduce Errors

Adoption of Automation to Reduce Time Spent on Design Tasks and Reduce Errors

Customer challenge

Visobath is dedicated to the manufacture and marketing of bathroom furniture, thanks to effort and innovation, has become a benchmark in the furniture industry. Since its inception in Visobath, they have worked to offer the best solutions for the bathroom of their customers with innovative and quality products and good service and customer support. In Visohome Group, a business group to which Visobath belongs, Covid-19 has significantly impacted working. They decided to review all jobs, establish protocols to guarantee the safety of their workers and, fundamentally, promote the use of telematics tools. The biggest challenge they have faced at the organizational level has been the adaptation to remote teamwork, so they have implemented tools so that the computer can stay connected.

Project goals

Visobath's goal is to have the necessary technology to meet customer demand at the highest speed and the best price. To achieve this, they need to continue adapting their production and design so that the machinery is 100% linked with the design software, by using Autodesk softwares.

Solution

Technology has represented a fundamental instrument of progress in every phase and developing the talent of those who have been part of the organization. Having chosen to use Autodesk software because of the trust generated by the brand. For the design of their 3D models, they opted for Autodesk Inventor, which, thanks to its versatility and easy handling, has contributed very positively to its development. Designing its products without the need to manufacture them has allowed it to be more agile and decisive when offering solutions to its customers. They also rely on other Autodesk programs, such as Autodesk AutoCAD and Autodesk Vault, to carry out their projects. Thanks to the Autodesk Vault document manager, they make their work much better organized and secure. In the same way, Autodesk AutoCAD is still a very recurrent tool for certain types of jobs.

Business outcome

Having the support of 2aCAD from Graitec is essential when developing its products. The main values that 2aCAD, Autodesk Platinum Partner, brings them is the commitment to their customers, making their own the problems, and, of course, their professionalism and experience "With Autodesk Vault, we have managed to eliminate duplication of parts, standardize them and greater control of our work." Joaquín Alcobendas Product Technician, Visobath. More versatility with less time and errors. The implementation process of Woodwork has been satisfactory thanks to the training days given by Graitec technicians in Visobath's facilities, who have guided them in installing, using and resolving all incidents and doubts that arose during the process.

Conclusion

The furniture manufacturing industry in Spain has considerably increased its production in recent decades. The weakness of domestic demand has driven the strategy of the domestic manufacturer to seek international markets. Even so, the market has an incredible opportunity in export since the percentage of exports concerning the total domestic production remains low. Currently, the Spanish industry has an excellent adaptation and competitiveness compared to other markets. The Spanish product is increasingly exported without closing to the national market, demonstrating its quality and the demand that other markets make of it. The industry's flexibility, quality, and differentiation are key to having very optimistic future expectations.

Graitec helps Visivo optimise Autodesk 3ds Max to deliver high-performance gym designs

Visivo is a 3D animation company specialising in 3D visualisations, fly-through animations, and virtual reality (VR) representations of gyms. Visivo’s work enables gym owners or franchisees to visualise their gym designs more clearly, especially during the pre-sale period of a new franchise opening. The company uses 3D computer graphics software from Autodesk to carry out this work. In doing so, it draws on training and support provided by Autodesk platinum partner, Graitec. To be successful, Visivo needs to showcase to gym owners and franchisees how their gym might look if various design options are taken. That process of experimentation is key in the earliest stages of design as a new gym takes shape, and it will also be instrumental in how the gym looks in the future.
