Success Story

VIDEX Machine Engineering uses Inventor, CAD models and Vault to manage projects and large assemblies for machine manufacturing.

VIDEX Machine Engineering uses Inventor, CAD models and Vault to manage projects and large assemblies for machine manufacturing.

Customer challenge

Established in 1973, VIDEX Mechanical Engineering Ltd. manufactures machines for the wiring, screws and connector industry and provides end-to-end dedicated solutions (from raw material stage to final product) according to the requirements of its customers in the USA, Europe, Australia and South America.


VIDEX manufactures machines for producing large screws (such as 48 mm diameter screws for wind turbines) and controls a significant part of this industry.

The company also operates in the mining industry, mainly in Australia, Canada, and South Africa, as well as manufactures machines for producing bent screws for the truck and vans industry and machines for producing metal wire-based products.


As a worldwide solution provider, VIDEX is well known among its customers for its powerful ability to take an existing model, tailor it to the customer's requirement and provide each customer with a machine that produces the exact required products for its specific needs.



Project goals

Some of the missions and goals that VIDEX wishes to achieve in this project are:

  • Specific - VIDEX applies a variety of Autodesk technologies such as Inventor, CAD models and Vault for managing projects and large assemblies of the machines the company manufactures and markets.
  • Measurable - For years we worked manually with a drawing board. It was good as long as they made a very limited number of models and machines.
  • Agreed Upon with Business Line Leaders - Over the years documentation became an issue as they no longer could remember what VIDEX have done in the past and changes that were made were not documented. Then they realized that it is necessary to adopt the CAD world.
  • Realistic - VIDEX has been using Autodesk solutions for many years. They started with Autodesk AutoCAD, moved to Autodesk Inventor and then added the Autodesk CAD module and the Autodesk Vault module for managing projects and large assemblies.
  • Time-based - VIDEX plans to receive assemblies that we can put into the machine's books and receive documentation that can be sent to customers. Today they already use STP for providing external contractors with production drawings, which is a fairly new process for them.

Solution

VIDEX and TeamCAD have worked together to find the solutions for this project. Solutions are :


1. Autodesk solutions:

VIDEX has been walking hand in hand with Autodesk solutions for many, many years. They started with AutoCAD, moved to Autodesk Inventor and then added the Autodesk CAD module and the Autodesk Vault module for managing projects and large assemblies.


2.  Provider Services: 

When VIDEX rely on Autodesk Inventor, they actually rely on TeamCAD. Their service is excellent. It is impossible to work on software without the very close service of TeamCAD and the people in the field. This includes troubleshooting, new software installation, training new engineers, learning new modules, consultations on what can and cannot be done, adjustments of post processors to VIDEX's manufacturing machines and basically working closely together with TeamCAD on all ther needs.

Business outcome

Many outcomes have achieved from this collaboration with VIDEX and TeamCAD.


By Using Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk CAD and Autodesk Vault modules, it enables VIDEX in:

  • Managing projects and large assemblies of the machines it manufactures and markets.
  • Providing external contractors with production drawings.
  • Improve efficiency
  • Save time and costs


Relaying on Autodesk Inventor means relying on TeamCAD. Their service is excellent. This includes:

  • Troubleshooting
  • Software installation
  • Training new engineers
  • Consultations on what can and cannot be done
  • Adjustments of post processors to our manufacturing machines


It is impossible to work on software without the very close service of TeamCAD and the people in the field.

Service is the most substantial thing. The fact that we can count on certain people to provide us answers and be there to help us when we need them is the game changer.


Conclusion

To conclude, the collaboration between VIDEX and TeamCAD have been fruitful and it helps VIDEX in achieving the goals as demanded by VIDEX.


Using Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk CAD and Autodesk Vault modules enables VIDEX to better manage their projects through improved efficiency and save time and cost. Also, by relaying on TeamCAD, VIDEX is getting supports on troubleshooting, software installation, training new engineers, consultations service and also adjustments of post processors to their manufacturing machines.

MAYA Brings Many Opportunities for Improvement as it Significantly Streamlines Work Processes and Shortens Development Times

"We develop systems for several areas," describes Liat Arnheim, product manager at 4Cast and specifies: "We have 4Skills which provides managers and organizations insights and recommendations about employees' skills, competencies, performance, and engagement. 4Emergemcy, which is designed to address HLS needs, and 4Sim for constructive simulation." "Every year, 4Cast develops and manufactures a large number of products, many of which integrate 3D models," says Liat and continues "In the training world, for instance, we deal a lot with 3D modeling; hence, it was imperative to find software that will allow us to create different models in high resolution."

"We found that Autodesk's MAYA, FLAME and 3D MAX help us achieve our goals, friendly, suitable to our work environment and to coping with the challenges we are facing."

"By our very definition as a high-end creative studio, we strictly make sure to work with the best solutions that can address our requirements to the highest possible level." says Yoav Savaryego, Head of 3D and Compositing at Gravity and add "hence Autodesk MAYA and Autodesk FLAME are the software tools we have been working with since the beginning of our journey."


"We are working with Autodesk solutions and TeamCAD services for years and we never replace a winning horse"

With our joining to BD, the quality and regulatory requirements increased," notes Felix Bar, a manufacturing engineer at the company, adding: "We were required to maintain and improve many old Legacy products, which were still under our responsibility and we needed to collaborate with teams around the world in various aspects of design, quality and validation. Additionally, until we joined BD, we managed only the drawings in the PLM, while all of our 3D files were stored on the net and everyone had permission to write on those files. In light of the organizational changes, our colleagues overseas needed to access our local 3D files as well which was not possible before using the Autodesk Vault."
