Cadmatic use in a nutshell
Customer challenge

Cadmatic solution
- Cadmatic’s distributed design system allows seamless and efficient distribution of design projects. Designers from different sites can work simultaneously on the same project.

It uses CADMATIC Hull for hull design, CADMATIC Outfitting for outfitting, and CADMATIC Electrical for electrical design, with a total of 370 internal users. The number of users of the Cadmatic information management systems CADMATIC eGo, CADMATIC eShare and CADMATIC eBrowser, which are used to utilize 3D model data on the production floor, has increased to 230.
“By utilizing digital technology, we have established a concurrent design system that allows the four sites to work together and in parallel.”
Tsuneishi Shipbuilding currently has design subsidiaries in Cebu, Philippines, Shanghai, China and Zhoushan, China, in addition to its domestic design headquarters, with a total of four bases carrying out design work.
By utilizing digital technology, the company has established a concurrent design system that allows these sites to work together and in parallel. By operating design work online and converting drawings to 3D, design instructions can be given in real time, and the progress of each person in charge can be monitored. The shift to using tablets to check 3D design data is also underway at manufacturing sites.
