Gilman Precision has announced the addition of a 3-D Linear Products CAD Configurator to its website for increased efficiency and ease when viewing and adjusting product specifications.
The Gilman 3-D Linear Products Configurator will serve engineers and other prospects by allowing them to select, view and insert Gilman 3-D CAD models and 2-D drawings directly into their own CAD systems. This online resource can increase efficiency in the design and customization process by allowing users to include and manipulate Gilman products into CAD designs to tailor a product for a specific application.
The Gilman 3-D Linear Products Configurator was built by Catalog Data Solutions Inc. (CDS) and is powered by CDS' CDS Catalog and CDS ModelServer solutions. The following Gilman products are featured in the configurator: Dovetail, Linear-Guide and Hardened-Way Slide Stages and accessories.
The configurator is user-friendly and will work on any operating system or web browser. Users visit the "Resources" section of Gilman's website and log into the program using their designated username and pin. Users then have 100% access to search and view all of Gilman's linear designs, select products and alternative options, download a specified CAD drawing and integrate it into their own CAD designs.
"We are excited to present this state-of-the-art service to our customers. Its capabilities will reduce the time and cost involved in purchasing standard and custom products," said Doug Biggs, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Gilman Precision. "We have put in the work up front to give our customers the best experience possible when working with Gilman Precision, and we will continue to do so as we find new ways to create engineered solutions for exacting needs."
This program creates enhanced customer service during the customization process by reducing the time and cost involved in quoting a project. Customers will no longer have to wait on project drawings, but may choose to modify the CAD files themselves using their own engineers that are familiar with the problem at hand. "As usual, customers always have direct access to Gilman engineers during the customization process. Professionals are never more than a phone call away for assisted product selection, suggested solutions for unique applications and overall guaranteed customer satisfaction," said a company spokesperson.
