Success Story

Automation of Tunnel Modeling for Mumbai Metro Rail Project using Dynamo

Automation of Tunnel Modeling for Mumbai Metro Rail Project using Dynamo

Customer challenge

Geoconsult India is specialized in tunnel designing and other infrastructure projects. One of the main challenges was that they were into conventional 2D workflow with a lack of information rich BIM model. In addition to that, one of the other challenges was to automate a BIM model development in order to avoid repetitive tasks.

Project goals

The two main goals set by Geoconsult India were: 1. To develop the Information rich BIM model for better engineering visualization of the project. 2. To develop a script for automation in BIM model development to avoid repetitive tasks such as placing the tunnel segments (20 m interval) along the path defined by actual project coordinates.

Solution

To solve the issues faced by the customer, we used the following Autodesk solutions: 1. Application of Revit to develop detailed federated BIM model; creation of BOQ & Construction Documentation 2. Application of Dynamo to automate the BIM model development by elaborating the script to avoid the repetitive tasks. 3. Application of Navisworks for Clash detection, Coordination and Visualization.

Business outcome

We responded to the challenges Geoconsult India faced before implementing the solutions. Indeed, we managed to deliver the project quickly and efficiently, incorporating automation in BIM model development and using customized coded scripts that meet the customer's requirements.

Conclusion

With the advanced training and continuous technical support from Capricot Team, Geoconsult India is now able to deliver their projects on BIM platform, optimizing the time along with enhancing the quality.

Truck Measurement System and Sampling Collection System

With Prefect Hydraulics Pvt Ltd, the Application had challenges in Assembly and Integration. Aggregates from various Parties were used to make this Hydraulic System. The necessity was to have a mock assembly before we take up the actual assembly. Autodesk products helped us to visit and make a 3D drawing which helped us to visualize the Product Assembly and avoid last-minute surprises which could have cost dearly in the Project. We were able to carry out assembly and testing activities much faster and deliver the system on time.

MINERAL PROCESSING EQUIPMENT

The products for which the Autodesk Inventor CAD tool was used were magnetic separators, heavy media drums, centrifuges, and sampler machines. For product development and design, Inventor comes in very handy to determine interferences and eliminate them using the tested and successful model for different sizes without much difficulty. The main advantages are in converting the concept into a design, reviewing the model, making necessary changes, and developing prototypes for testing. The biggest advantage is quality of work and time savings.


KAAPPAAN [Tamil] [Feature Film]

KAAPPAAN is an action thriller film from 2019 in the Indian Tamil language. It was written and directed by K. V. Anand, co-written by Pattukkottai Prabakar, and produced by Lyca Productions. The Film was released in theatres on 20 September 2019 and emerged as a commercial success by grossing ₹100 crores at the box office. However, in the making, the film had presented Firefly Creative Studio with a challenge to capture and enliven the attack of a genetically altered locust swarm on village crops at a time when the farmers were preparing to reap the sow. Being centric to the action, it became vital for Firefly Creative Studio to capture the details of the insects in terms of looks, proportions and mechanics.
