Heavy Machinery: Technical Drawing & Process Planning
Heavy machinery programs involve thousands of parts, deep assembly hierarchies, and documentation requirements that scale with every new variant. Foundation EGI handles the complexity so your engineers can focus on building machines that perform.
Technical Drawing
A single heavy machinery program can require thousands of drawings, from high-level assembly views down to individual weldment details. Managing that at scale manually means either a large documentation team or chronic delays. Neither is sustainable.
Foundation EGI generates complete drawing packages from your 3D models, handling the entire hierarchy from top-level machine assembly down to component-level detail drawings. Variants, configurations, and revision cycles are handled without starting from scratch each time.
Process Planning
Heavy machinery builds are long-cycle events where a mistake discovered late in assembly doesn't just cost time. It can mean weeks of rework on a machine that may already be partially shipped to a customer site. The only way to avoid it is to get the build sequence right before assembly begins.
Foundation EGI generates and validates your assembly process plan directly from CAD, checking operation sequencing, tooling access, and crane lift paths before any physical work begins. Problems surface on a screen, not on the floor.

Benefit 03
Heavy machinery operates under real safety demands. Load ratings, material certifications, weld specifications, and lifting provisions all have to be right. Documentation errors in these areas aren't just quality issues; they're liabilities.
Foundation EGI generates documentation directly from the authoritative CAD model, eliminating the transcription layer where most errors are introduced. What's in the drawing always matches what's in the model, because they come from the same source.
