The problem

Designing similar tools meant repeating the same modelling steps again and again. I wanted to take that routine work off the designer.

What it does

You enter the parameters of a tool and the system builds the CAD model automatically.

Add two or three sentences from the user's point of view: what you type in, what you get back, what is possible. Keep it to what the tool can do, not how it does it.

My role

I developed the system and introduced it to my colleagues.

What I learned

Write two or three sentences, for example about planning a tool for other people, testing it, and training users.
