Hydnet AB has offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö, and designs and supplies advanced hydraulic products for mobile, industrial, and marine applications. Its product line includes cartridge valves, hydraulic blocks, valve blocks, and hydraulic filters, among other items.
Customers have high expectations for efficient and flexible hydraulic solutions. Hydraulic blocks and other components must be visualized for the customer early in the project, and technical solutions, sales support, calculations, drawings, and hydraulic diagrams must be produced quickly and without errors.
Hydnet was looking for a capable and flexible 3D and 2D system and chose IRONCAD, which met the requirements for user-friendliness, flexibility, and speed. The catalog system makes it possible to build libraries of ready-made, flexible components that can be dragged into the 3D environment like Lego pieces, and the complete 2D environment with symbol libraries handles hydraulic schematics within the same solution.
The design of hydraulic blocks and systems has become more efficient, visualization and communication with customers clearer, and precision higher. Customers get a concrete picture of the finished solution early in the process, and fewer errors occur when everything is in the same system.
