关于客户
Bill's Custom Fab, Inc. 是一家家族拥有和经营的企业,自 1990 年以来一直提供定制设计和制造服务,为各种不同的应用创建结构钢部件。该公司与各种各样的客户合作,使制造车间将其知识、经验和专业知识扩展到许多行业,从建筑和重型机械客户到住宅和步入式客户。除了定制设计和制造之外,比尔定制工厂的服务还包括钢材安装、等离子燃烧、钢材销售、剪切、弯曲、铝和不锈钢焊接以及内部和便携式焊接。
挑战
Bill's Custom Fab, Inc. 是一家家族企业,自 1990 年以来一直提供结构钢部件的定制设计和制造服务,该公司面临着更有效地支持其业务的 2D 设计要求的挑战。该公司使用 2D CAD 制造用于各种应用的结构钢,包括建筑、扶手和楼梯梁。管理团队致力于质量改进,定期重新评估其设计和制造工具,以提高效率、提高生产力或增加功能。然而,他们之前的 CAD 提供商的许可变更导致 Bill's Custom Fab 重新评估其 2D 设计解决方案。该公司需要的解决方案不仅功能齐全,提供良好的投资回报,而且稳定、兼容主要 CAD 格式,并能够运行 LISP 宏和例程,该公司使用这些宏和例程来创建常见的结构钢特征。
解决方案
Bill's Custom Fab, Inc. 实施了 DraftSight® Professional 2D 设计软件,以更有效地满足其设计要求。选择该软件是因为其稳定性、与主要 CAD 格式的数据兼容性以及运行 LISP 宏和例程的能力。由于该软件的用户界面和功能与旧版 CAD 类似,因此可以无缝过渡到 DraftSight Professional 软件,无需停机或培训。这使得公司能够保持高水平的生产力。此外,在 DraftSight 中继续使用 LISP 语言宏和例程的能力有助于通过使用自动化命令来保持效率和生产力,同时还降低了成本。该公司使用 DraftSight 绘制钢结构制造和安装图纸、定制制造车间图纸,并使用 DXF 功能绘制等离子切割台。

Continuous Casting Machines in a Steel Factory
With a very broad range of applications, steel is an important material and has been developed into the most extensive alloy in the engineering world. Since delivering high quality is absolutely crucial for steel plants, ensuring maximum productivity and the best quality production are the keys to competitiveness in the steel industry. Additionally, working conditions in steel factories are not suitable for workers to stay in for long periods of time, so manufactures usually adopt various machines to complete the steel production processes. However, the precision of these machines is often overestimated and the lack of flexibility also makes supervisors unable to adjust operating procedures. A renowned steel factory in Asia planned to improve its Distributed Control System (DCS) of furnaces as well as addressing the problem of insufficient accuracy. However, most well-known international equipment suppliers can not provide a satisfactory solution and local maintenance because the project needed new technologies to more accurately control equipment operations. By implementing Advantech’s automated monitoring and control solution, steel factories can not only improve the manufacturing processes but can also allow users to add additional functions to the existing system so as to make sure the operation runs at high efficiency.
