Export CAD Data

How to export data from different software

BEAM/BUILDING ANALYSIS OVERVIEW

  • Generally, AGT Robotics can test beams and buildings with CORTEX to follow these objectives:
    • Validate the compatibility between the CAD software but mostly how the beams and columns are drawn;
    • Welds:
      • Validate that the welds modeled in the CAD software can be read by Cortex; OR;
      • Validate that the auto-generated welds by CORTEX are located at the right position and with the right size.
    • General accessibility:
      • Validate the overall results (what welds can be done with robots) ?
      • Validate main reasons if welds are not supported.

PROCEDURE TO SEND BUILDING FOR ANALYSIS

  • Identify a few representative beams OR a entire division of the model that is representative.
  • General guidelines to select beams:
    • The purpose of the welding robots is to eliminate welding labour. Do not send parts to test the limits. Send regular everyday beams and columns that represent 80% of your daily work.
    • For faster turnaround from AGT, select less than a 100 beams.

UPLOAD .AGTX and/or .IFC files

  • Contact your sales representative to get an upload link
  • Notify your sales representative that a file has been uploaded and is ready for analysis.
