Design and Production of Mining Machines at Eko-Bud II - Using the Power of the PD&M Collection

Design and Production of Mining Machines at Eko-Bud II - Using the Power of the PD&M Collection

Customer challenge

Eko-Bud II has been comprehensively dealing with the design and production of machines for mines and gravel pits since 1998. Their production process covers all stages: from mining planning, through the development of aggregate processing stages, to the production and delivery of specialized machines. Eko-Bud II needed to quickly optimize the entire mining plant, which required the creation of several to even 15 project concepts. Due to the very large assemblies, a stable, parametric CAD system was needed.

Project goals

When designing complete mining plants in 2D, Eko-Bud II often experienced problems with planning, management and ongoing implementation of investments. The company Eko-Bud II wanted to eliminate complications during the assembly of devices and avoid improvised modifications that caused unexpected delays in implementation and increased costs. A CAD solution was sought for an entire highly complex 3D mining plant design.

Solution

After a first phase of implementation with Autodesk solutions, Eko-Bud II immediately noticed the significant benefits of Autodesk Inventor, including: • generators of machine parts so there is no need to manually model them, • a very good and extensive library of standardized parts, • the possibility of parameterization from simple parts to large assemblies, which greatly facilitates and speeds up the creation of repeatable models, • very high program stability when working on large teams, • good program optimization, which translates into the speed of Autodesk Inventor compared to other CAD programs on the same computer, • the ability to perform calculations of frame structures, which allows to quickly create a concept of a load-bearing frame along with its analyzes and modifications. After the successful initial implementation of the first license, PCC Polska implemented for Eko-Bud II another set of licenses and the Autodesk Product Design & Manufacturing Collection solution.

Business outcome

Inventor Professional and AutoCAD from the PD&M Collection enabled Eko-bud II to design a complete mining system in 3D, consisting of: pretreatment unit, sand storage, buffers, heaps, processing plant and mining machines. Eko-bud noticed also the convenience of communicating with the client and the possibility of introducing changes in the design phase. The model of manufactured machines and devices can be easily presented, rotated, put on a map and displayed on a scale. Autodesk Inventor Professional software reduced assembly errors by 99%. The remaining 1% are human errors. “Inventor Professional is a very good system. It offers many solutions that streamline the design process. It allows for parameterization to such an extent that the constructor's work is limited only to changing parameters in the assembly or the control sketch. " - says Jan Jakimiszyn, constructor and programmer at Eko-Bud II

Conclusion

The implementation and cooperation betweem Eko-Bud II and PCC Polska was very optimistic, with great involvement of the construction department. The first effects were visible after the first month of working with the programs included with the Autodesk PD&M Collection. Eko-Bud II also recognized the development potential of Inventor Professional and used the iLogic and VBA development environment to create tools to automate repetitive tasks. Eko-Bud II also associates its future plans such as creating assembly and transport instructions, which would eliminate assembly and transport problems and reduce unnecessary costs. They also want to learn how to use the Inventor Nastran tools in the PD&M Collection for better and more precise strength calculations.

Improving Asset Creation and Pipeline in Game Dev Studio - Render Cube S.A.

Render Cube is an independent Polish game development studio based in Lodz, Poland, providing outsourcing services and later developing games on its own (Monster League, Medieval Dynasty). The main problem after the early release of the second game turned out to be the high expectations of players regarding the quality of the final product. Render Cube wanted to deliver the final version of the game in the highest possible quality. This required filling the whole universe with the highest quality assets and animations. The entire game was built on Unreal Engine, so in order to take advantage of its capabilities, the models had to be prepared in a perfect way with a great topology. Also, the variety of models could have been problematic due to the short time until release.

CERTYFI-CAD: Enhancing and Accelerating the Design Process and Communication with the Customer - PD&M Collection

CERTYFI-CAD is a design office in Rzeszow, Poland, established in 2012. In its activity, it offers services in designing mechanical machines and devices for various industries. In all cases, the scope of design work is agreed with the client and the best variant is proposed in order to achieve the intended effect as soon as possible. The company employs qualified engineers with vast knowledge and experience gained during execution of various projects. Moreover, the team is distinguished by excellent knowledge of 3D design software. During many years of work on various projects, CERTYFI-CAD has developed its own style which is based on involving the client in the project so that the final product is one hundred percent tailored to his needs. One often occurring problem during such cooperation was the lack of an ability to quickly design assembly configurators with different variants of parts or presenting variants of individual parts.
