Factory CAD, an E-factory product, is a factory layout software tool that    allows you to create detailed, intelligent factory models. Factory CAD provides    equipment symbols, block management, optimized layer management tools, and    smart factory objects -- everything you need to create an entire factory model.    Instead of drawing lines, arcs, and circles, smart objects represent floor and    overhead conveyors, mezzanines, cranes, operators, material handling containers,    etc. These objects allow you to snap together a layout model without wasting time    drawing the equipment.    Business Value    Factory CAD enables all users to spend time designing instead of drawing.    Because Factory CAD makes layout creation, modification, and visualization easier    and faster, design flaws and issues can be identified and eliminated earlier in the    design process, prior to physically building or modifying the factory. Re-using the    layout data in other related applications saves time, allows more design interations    to be assessed, and makes the layout information more valuable. Overall, getting    factories into production sooner with fewer last minute modifications provides    significant financial benefits.
