11.20.15
Esko has launched the newest version of ArtiosCAD, an important release of one of its leading structural design editors for packaging and displays. The updated version showcases Canvas Design, which improves the workflow due to a series of new features. The program is intended for anyone designing and producing multi-component displays and packaging, and the enhancements are the result of customer input.
The new Canvas File in ArtiosCAD is a master design template. A designer can create all the pieces on a single canvas and see how they interact. From that one canvas, they can now redirect those components that need graphics, separate the components based upon how they are manufactured and identify each part for reports, database searching or for integrating with a business system. ArtiosCAD maintains a unique board assignment for each part. Parts made on mixed substrates can be designed and viewed together. Unique database information is stored for each part, making them easy to identify. When parts are output, they can be done so, separately. Moreover, if a separate part file is edited, ArtiosCAD notes the change and allows it to be updated on the master Canvas File. ArtiosCAD also streamlines a workflow. It makes it easy to tie into an MIS, allowing the business system to create unique parts for inventory and costing; or helping to run a bill of materials. If a display is created, only those parts that require artwork can be sent to the graphic design department – not the entire display, eliminating any confusion. For manufacturing, companies are now able to separate the canvas into different parts and deliver only those pieces that require a specific manufacturing technique.
