Below there are examples of some custom development add-on software which automate modeling tasks inside Pro/ENGINEER.
BAE - Optical Modeling Extension
Simulation of rays going from a defined light sources through complex optical-mechanic assembly created in Pro/ENGINEER. The result is stored within the model as datum curves to be used for different kind of measurement.
DBT - Conveyor System Configurator
Configuration and automation of coal conveyor systems.
Consists of several application - Front-End for administrating database, GUI Wizard, Collision control and the main engine which builds up whole conveyor from user's input and information in database, updates drawings and prepares data for collisions testing.
Eagle
New Graphical User Interface for creating holes in Pro/ENGINEER that is made-to-measure for the company internal standards. The dimensions of holes, detailed description of hole notes and relations are specified in configuration files. User interface is similar to standard Pro/ENGINEER hole dialog.
FAMAC
This application reads data from Pro/ENGINNER drawing table and shows it in web browser. User adds some data in web browser and the application creates a text file in desired format and sends this text file via email.
FERRARI
The application creates Pro/ENGINEER part and drawing of cam generated according to data from Excel spreadsheet. The process is maximally automated, the user only selects Excel file and then all needed parameters for part geometry creation are computed automatically. Drawing is created using customer`s template and table with dimensions at measurement points is filled.
Goldhofer
Wizard style configurator of long trailers steering Pro/E models by changing dimensions, pattern tables, exchanging assemblies, assembling components according to user's input and rules stored in database.
Heller
The application adds support for a special type of dimension on a drawing to be used with special NC machine standards. The new dimensions are fully parametric, so they can be regenerated after model change.
INA
The application generates a drawing table with coordinates of a selected sketched curve and places special symbols on Pro/E drawings.
Larga
The application analyzes models and adds additional parameters to Family table to support searching in Pro/INTRALINK for specific instance of UDF.
MAPAL
The application explores the model structure of selected Pro/E MFG model to find placed groups and their references. The application places automatically new UDFs in the model according to references of existing CAD_UDF's in Pro/E model.
MATADOR
Provides functionality for conversion of 2D picture of tyre sidewall created by an artist/designer onto real 3D model in Pro/ENGINEER.
ODU
The product is described with 19-character number. The application is able to read this number and create valid Pro/ENGINEER model, create drawing and fill the parameters. The application can calculate the price and create a description of the product.
RICOSYS
Cargo management system for Heavy Multi-Purpose Container vessels. (coop. with INNEO)
The Pro/TOOLKIT part of the project allows the ship planner to simulate loading, shifting and discharging of the cargo simply by mouse clicking in Pro/ENGINEER assembly.
SIEMENS CosmeticTEXT/CosmeticLIST
Automation of entering text into Pro/E model, customization of placing special symbols (UDF) and export information about those texts/symbols in a special format for a laser writer.
Spal
The customer wants to provide 3D models to his contractors, but he needs to protect some technological secrets. The application exports Pro/E assembly where the real geometry of some parts/curves is hidden.
Termaco - Battery Tray Configurator
The configuration of sheet-metal boxes for special accumulators. The application is designed in wizard style. The user is led by the application to create the box step by step.
Thermokey - Heat Exchanger Configurator
Automatic configuration and assembling of heat exchangers, created for Italian company Thermokey. Particular heat exchanger is automatically created and assembled from parametric generic models, using simple and easy, wizard-like user interface.
