Concurrent Engineering Blog

For our 25th Anniversary, Concurrent Engineering will be running an open day to celebrate CAD software innovation next month. This free event will offer visitors the chance to learn more about the capabilities of CAD software and how it can innovate product development for a range of businesses. 

CAD has been used in certain industries for many years. Some industries couldn’t do without it. However, in areas such as packaging, CAD technology has not been seen as useful.

There was a time when the number of CAD software applications could be counted on one hand. Now, with a constantly expanding world of developers, and numerous tools with which they can create enterprise-level apps for multiple platforms, searching for new CAD software has become rather tricky.

Updating CAD software is costly, especially if the upgrades are released every one or two years. Yet there are practical reasons that make a CAD software upgrade more cost-effective than you (or your boss) might think. 

You know that, as a manufacturer, it’s a tireless process looking for ways to improve efficiency and get products to market faster than ever before. One way which you can do this is by bridging the gap between CAD applications and technical publications.

It’s a well known fact that last minute calls on your design process can extend schedules, sometimes well into the night, to get the job done.

Coping with late stage design changes is one of the most common challenges facing modern engineering and design departments. As you probably already know, many design changes occurlate in the process. Often, many months after the original design was created. Late stage design changes can be a real problem for companies. But there is hope, and tackling this challenge with Creo Parametric makes the process somuch easier, meaning your designs won’t underperform.
