Casework pipeline walkthrough

Plans in. Parts out.

Point it at an interior elevation and the bid that goes with it. It reads the drawing the way a drafter does — dimension chains, cabinet extents, appliance openings — reconciles what it found against the scope, then builds the room and returns a drawing set and a cut-ready parts list.

This is a step-by-step walkthrough of the casework pipeline, not a video: each stage below is an illustration of that step, and a drafter reviews every package before it ships.

For steel shops

Same approach, pointed at a beam line instead of a panel saw.

A steel shop that drafts in-house already has a management system that imports a file per job, and a floor that runs machine files off the same model. Both get keyed or exported by hand, then fixed by hand when they disagree with the drawings. That is the repetitive part we take off the drafter's desk.

We start from one job your shop has already run: the import file it produced, the machine files, the drawing set. The build reproduces that import file line for line from the model, so estimating, purchasing and the floor all read from the drawings instead of re-keying them. Machine-file exports are checked against the model, mark by mark, before the floor sees them.

Nothing on this page names a client, because those builds run inside a shop's own standards and stay there. See the full list of what we automate →

What comes out of a steel build

Your management system's import file, generated from the model and matched to the one your shop already produces
Machine files for the beam line and the burn table, exported from the same model and checked against it
Bolt and material summaries and gather sheets that agree with the marks on the drawings
Your title block, layers and sheet setup as the template every package starts from
Batch plotting of approval and shop sets in the order your floor wants them
