About Klaus

Areas of Activity:
• Design and development of products
• Procurement and optimization of parts and assemblies
• CAD optimization
• CAD integration

How we differ from the competition:
• Earliest possible search and involvement of suppliers
• Optimization of the product and parts / assemblies with the
suppliers and not just later
• Building a supply chain at the earliest possible development stage
Result:
• Prototypes made from series parts can be built and tested earlier.
• Prices are known in advance.
• Time to zero or pre-series production is shortened

Typical:
• Our customers often have no in-house development
• There are diverse opinions about what the newly developed
product should be capable of.
• Internally, there is disagreement on what truly gives a new product
unique selling points
• Often, a new development has been postponed for years
• The timeline for a prototype is short (the planned trade fair or
presentation date is known long in advance)
• KD-Cad is only involved late in the process

What is important to us:
• We listen to the customers and try to understand what is really
important or needed
• Based on this, we create virtual models to show the customer the
feasibility
• We then also make new suggestions based on our experience. Customers are often stuck in their thought patterns.
• The mix makes it. From our suggestions, the customer's wishes,
and the suggestions of our suppliers, we form an overall solution

What we work with:
CAD systems:
• SolidWorks Premium, all versions from 2015 onwards
• Pro Engineer Wildfire 4.0
Other systems are possible on request, e.g.
• Autodesk Inventor
• Solid Edge
• Space Claim
