CCE Releases ConfigLink 2012

By DE Editors

CCE has released ConfigLink 2012, a design automation tool that dramatically reduces time to generate custom designs for highly configurable product families.

ConfigLink includes two modules. The Author Master module is used by a product expert for a one-time set up of the configuration parameters,  and a User module can be used by any designer over and over again to generate variants. The results are 3D models of the new design variants, and associated 2D drawings. Separating the Author and User modules reduces cost and increases productivity as the one-time set up of the expert can be leveraged many times by non-experts.

In the current update the Author Masters User Interface has been enhanced to simplify the process of defining configuration parameters and constraints.

ConfigLink is integrated within several major CAD systems including Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0, SolidWorks 2011, Autodesk Inventor 2011 and Solid Edge ST4 on both Windows 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.
