Industrial Automation: Technical Drawing & Process Planning

Ship automation projects
faster than the competition.

Automation integrators and machine builders win and retain business by delivering on time. Foundation EGI compresses the documentation and planning work that slows every project, without touching your engineering standards.

Technical Drawing

Deliver complete drawing packages for every custom cell, without scaling headcount.

Every automation project is custom. Every custom project needs its own drawing package. As your project volume grows, the documentation burden grows with it, and hiring more draftspeople isn't a scalable answer.

Foundation EGI generates cell-level and component-level drawings directly from your CAD for each project, applying your standards automatically. Taking on more projects doesn't have to mean hiring more people to document them.

Process Planning

Get your integration sequence right before you're on-site.

Automation installations are high-pressure events. When you're on a customer's floor with a commissioning window, discovering a sequencing problem or a tooling interference issue isn't just an inconvenience. It's a cost overrun and a relationship risk.

Foundation EGI validates your multi-station line plan in simulation before you arrive. Installation sequences, robot reach envelopes, fixture positioning, and utility connections are checked against your actual CAD model, not assumptions made in a spreadsheet.

Benefit 03

Scale your project volume without scaling your documentation team.

The best automation integrators grow by winning more projects, not by growing their back-office overhead. When documentation is a manual bottleneck, every new project adds pressure, and the team that's supposed to be engineering is spending half its time on paperwork.

Foundation EGI changes that ratio. Drawings and process plans are generated as a natural output of your CAD work, not as a separate effort. As your project volume increases, your documentation throughput increases with it. Automatically.
