面向售后/MRO、服务和备件领域的可视化

The problem:
Today, machine manufacturers use e-mail and apps to inform their service staff about necessary work. Often, however, only a customer name and an address are given here, perhaps also which machine it is. However, it could often be an advantage if the service employee could assess exactly what the problem is and how it could be solved while on the road. And whether any spare parts are required, without which a repair would not be possible. This requires graphics that run even on smartphones and that also get by with a small bandwidth.

The solution:
With the 3DViewStation WebViewer version, the service employee can see exactly where the problem occurs on the machine while he is on the move. He can now access current and historical status information of the affected component. It provides links from a part to related maintenance and troubleshooting documentation and information about required replacement parts.

The benefits:
The forthcoming assignment can be better assessed while on the move. If it is clear that spare parts are required, use that is pointless at this point in time can be avoided and costs saved. Since some machine manufacturers also operate the 3DViewStation on the machine itself, the additional effort for such a solution is negligible.

The problem:
Many manuals and technical documentation are still printed or published in 2D today. Internal departments often work on the content, but there are also many external service providers. Colleagues often receive 3D CAD data from which they have to derive images or vector illustrations themselves. These are then often transferred to editorial systems or incorporated directly into documents. Since editors are not CAD specialists, they need an easy-to-use tool to get their job done.

The solution:
The Kisters 3DViewStation desktop version is often used here. 2D and 3D CAD data from a wide variety of CAD systems and also neutral formats can be read and processed. This includes isolating subassemblies, changing colors or transparencies, attaching annotation or free-standing text, exploding assemblies, and attaching balloon graphics. The individual processing steps are created in views and then exported as images or vector drawings in the desired data format.

The benefits:
With an intuitive tool, 3D CAD data from a wide variety of sources can be processed quickly and easily. In addition, the 3DViewStation is cheaper than a CAD system.
