Interactive Design Automation with TactonWorks

Manufacturers can reduce design customization work from days to minutes, by automating repetitive design adaptation tasks using the TactonWorks add-in to SolidWorks.

Some of the advantages with Tactonworks over conventional design automation tools are the high degree of interactivity, the ease of rules maintenance, and that it is a SolidWorks add-in which runs inside the SolidWorks interface.

Interactivity

• TactonWorks allows the user to explore all alternatives for configuration in order to get the optimal solution.
• Selections and input can be made in any sequence.
• The available options will always be compatible with the selections made so far.
• A valid design is generated every time even if the input only has partial requirements.

Ease of rule maintenance

• TactonWorks Studio, where the rules are defined, is an easy to use graphical point- and-click environment.
• Rules are designed intuitively and concisely as logical dependencies between design parameters.
• No programming skills are needed.
• The number of rules needed are drastically reduced using TactonWorks.

Embedded in SolidWorks

• No need to open additional software, TactonWorks runs next to the assembly document in SolidWorks.
• Easy to automatically generate complete 2D drawings and 3D models
• Possible to view changes made directly within SolidWorks.

The TactonWorks program suite for design automation consists of TactonWorks Engineer, TactonWorks Batch, TactonWorks Studio, and TactonWorks Online.
