The Synthesis Company now offers parametric consulting expertise to create turnkey automation applications for manufacturing companies, with no up front costs to slow down decision making

The Synthesis Company, software developers of Synthesis Release 16 - 3D parametric software for AutoCAD, now offers parametric consulting expertise to create turnkey automation applications for manufacturing companies.

CAD automation can be implemented from desktops or by accessing a company web site.

New Synthesis turn key consulting services allow manufacturing companies to discover, evaluate and enter the design automation field with a low risk, high return "proof of concept" CAD automation project.

Development costs for the first automation project module are not billed until the customer has a working and productive design module and is satisfied.

Synthesis software and project development costs can also be spread out over a 24 month period to reduce total up front investment costs.

With parametric experts available and no up front costs to slow down decision making, more companies are now getting into AutoCAD automation with Synthesis.

The Synthesis parametric software creates new, custom AutoCAD drawings at speeds 100-300 times faster than drawing by hand.

Additional benefits include: reduction in design errors and the ability to distribute CAD automation designs via the Internet.

Internet automation capabilities make the Synthesis parametric solution a compelling one for many manufacturers.

Synthesis advanced 3D parametrics works with AutoCAD 2000I drawings.

Examples of internet based automation projects are available on the Synthesis web site at www.synthesiscompany.com.

New AutoCAD drawings are created in a few seconds and can be viewed from an Internet browser with nothing to down load.

Typical customer applications include creation of drawings for sales quotes.

Also Synthesis is used to create manufacturing information and production drawings.

Drawings can be generated from a standalone computer or by accessing company internet web sites.

Web based AutoCAD automation can be hosted by Synthesis or by the company's own server.

Current companies benefiting from Synthesis automation assistance include HVAC giant York International which is using Synthesis for 650+ sales representatives and customers world wide to create drawings of HVAC units.

ABB Power Transmission and Distribution is deploying Synthesis for 33 offices world wide for manufacturing information drawings.

Other applications include web based packaging designs, web based bearings, web based marinas, web based overhead cranes.

To proceed with a "proof of concept" automation project, a customer can simply e-mail a typical CAD drawing and design rules to Synthesis.

Synthesis design experts will call and then begin to automate your design on the web.

No charge until satisfied.

Users can see their new drawings being created from a password protected link on the Synthesis web site.

If a company likes the speed, error reductions, 24 hour availability and potential for distribution of automated CAD to sales people or non-draftsmen, they can then simply continue to sign up for a low cost automation project.

Synthesis will provide a turnkey package of software, drawings and designs and programming that can get a manufacturing company off to a running start.

Employees at manufacturing firms can easily add more drawing and designs building on the foundation built by Synthesis turn key services.
