Success Story

Cratex Adopts Fusion 360

Cratex Adopts Fusion 360

Customer challenge

Cratex de México Sa de Cv is a manufacturing company located in Tijuana, México. They specialize in abrasive products. One of their main tasks is creating molds. Previously Cratex used Autodesk AutoCAD and Sketchbook Pro for their mold design. As their business kept growing, Cratex was looking for a more advanced solution for their workflow. They were looking to get into 3D software although they didn't have any experience with it.

Project goals

Some of Cratex key goals were finding 3D software that's apt for their workflow (mold design), preferably with a soft learning curve. In addition to that, finding training in the respective software. Lastly, merging 2D and 3D applications and implementing collaboration tools, all these with the help of Autodesk solutions.

Solution

Grupo LAN presented Cratex with the variety of solutions the Autodesk Product Design and Manufacturing Collection had to offer. After the presentation, we decided that Autodesk Fusion 360 was their best introduction to the 3D world, as it responded to their main objectives and it represented a friendly tool for inexperienced users. Additionally, Grupo LAN offered an introduction and training for Autodesk Fusion 360.

Business outcome

Several Autodesk Fusion 360 licenses were delivered successfully to the Cratex design team, as well as a renewal of their Autodesk AutoCAD licenses. Introductory sessions were scheduled focused on their specific workflows. Emphasis was made on the interoperability of 2D y 3D design, as well as on the optimization of their workflow.

Conclusion

Grupo LAN is fully committed to supporting our clients with personalized service, giving adequate consulting and training. Our service has allowed new users to successfully adopt new technologies.
