  • Save time

    classmate DRAW reduces the effort for data acquisition and transfer to a minimum.

  • Linking with 3D models and ERP systems

    The recognized drawing information can be assigned directly to the 3D model and used for subsequent processes such as costing, routing or procurement.

  • Higher data quality

    Automated processing reduces the risk of manual transmission errors – for consistent, complete and correct data throughout the entire digital process.

  • No manual effort

    The software runs fully automatically in the background.

Faster insights. Smarter decisions.

classmate DRAW: Advantages of digitizing technical drawings

With the AI-based information extracted from the 2D drawings, you can simplify and improve processes in many areas:

  • Designers can now find similar parts even faster and more accurately, and benefit from greater efficiency, more intelligent digital twins and easier reuse.
  • Orders for mechanical manufacturing services and post-treatment are simpler, faster and more reliable.
  • Quality assurance is supported by intelligent 3D models.
  • The simus classmate calculation tools work faster and much more accurately because they take more relevant information into account in a targeted manner. This benefits buyers and work planners in companies, as well as suppliers and manufacturing service providers.

The following PMI can now be read from the drawings using AI, for example:

Dimensions / radii

Fits and tolerances

Shape and position tolerances (GD&T)

Thread details

Surface finish

Quality standards

Materials

Prerequisites for successful extraction of information:

  • Clean, clearly legible drawings in good resolution
  • use of annotations according to usual standards
  • no handwritten content
  • no scanned drawings

classmate DRAW is interesting for all companies in which

large quantities of 2D drawings are available that are to be processed digitally,

common CAD systems such as Autodesk® Inventor®, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, PTC Creo Parametric or Siemens PLM Software NX are used,

Designers should be relieved,

digital processes are playing an increasingly important role.
