3D design

The IT consulting company BDF Consultants has developed a new functionality for its add-on solution Material Control Center (MCC), which is fully integrated into SAP ERP. The powerful, tried-and-tested MCC platform for efficient material logistics now has a manufacturing integration that supports a transparent transition from 3D design to manufacturing. The aim of the solution is to bring design and production processes closer together. The following example of a turn/tilt fitting is a component for the manufacture of windows. This component is manufactured fully automatically and consists of around 350 individual parts. The specifications for production therefore require the corresponding data quality. The starting point for the process is CAD models and assemblies, which are stored and managed in SAP in a structured manner by the design department using the MCC (Material Control Center).
