A sure way to maximise the productivity of your timber frame, roof and floor manufacturing plant is to utilise powerful industry specific software packages to their full potential. ITW Industry have taken building design software to the next level by establishing dynamic links between timber frame design and roof & floor engineering software to further improve efficiency.
"Alpine VIEW" and "hsbCAD" are available together as a single fully integrated software suite, bringing huge benefits in time saving and accuracy to users. Both Alpine and hsbCAD are well established as specialists in their particular fields, and following their acquisitions by ITW in recent years, they have pooled their knowledge and resources to create the ultimate timber building software solution.
hsbCAD, an Autodesk preferred industry partner, is the tool for designing and detailing timber frame panels and even any associated steelwork, while VIEW is the structural analysis program developed to economically engineer roof trusses and open web joists which seamlessly integrates with hsbCAD. This new software suite allows the designer to access all structural elements within one application.
When the job is ready for manufacture, hsbCAD sends CNC output to production machinery reducing costly and time consuming manual set-up. Furthermore, all this and other daily processes can be controlled by Alpine's AiMS management system which can handle projects from enquiry to invoice.
Savvy software utilisation could be the key to the profitability of your business. To discuss the VIEW and hsbCAD software suite further, please call ITW Industry's customer services on 01792 563540.
