HELiCON Engineer

Optimise your design and engineering processes!

HELiCON Engineer is a powerful CAD configurator solution that extracts existing CAD data, constrains the valid product compositions and parts positioning by intuitive product rules, and shares the knowledge to any CAD user in an intuitive user interface. The user is automatically guided to the desired, valid product combinations - including the generation of complete CAD drawings, bills of materials and PDM data.

The HELiCON Engineer Edition consists of the following components:

HELiCON Connector
Ensures the re-use of existing CAD & PDM data from HiCAD and HELiOS.

HELiCON Studio
Enables an easy and intuitive rule creation on the basis of simple tables, formulae and relations.

HELiCON Configurator
Supports the creation of valid products via an intuitive, user-friendly GUI.

If desired, HELiCON Engineer can be upgraded to HELiCON Enterprise, a CAD- and PDM-independent high-end product configuration solution that offers a maximum of customisation and fine-tuning options. Furthermore, HELiCON Enterprise enables you to significantly reduce the time required for proposal preparation and order processing in your enterprise.

The extensive range of functions offered by this package provides every company with an enormous competitive advantage and is capable of accelerating design processes by factors:

• Costly design errors are detected and eliminated right from the start.
• Design times are reduced from days to minutes.
• The involvement of the engineering department can be minimized.
• All staff members can access the entire product knowledge at any time (“Sales Intelligence”).
• The creation of a configurator takes only a few minutes, the configuring of a valid product only a few seconds; all required drawings are generated in approx. 5 minutes.
