On this episode of Beyond 3D, we talk with Shaan Hurley, a Community Manager from Autodesk about why building a community for companies and the people who use those products.

The Importance of Community for Developers and Software Companies

On this Beyond 3D podcast, Umair Ejaz from Visual Components joins us to talk about how software is changing the way we build factories and what the future may hold.

The Evolution of How We Build Factories with Umair Ejaz

In this round table discussion on digital transformation, our panel will be delving into some key challenges that still need to be addressed in our industry. Join Ron Fritz, CEO of Tech Soft 3D, Tyler Barnes, President of Tech Soft 3D, Sam Burgess, CEO of SamsonVT, Andy Cheadle, CTO of CloudNC, Milan Kocic, Founder of Sixth Sense, and Suchit Jain, Solidworks VP of Strategy and Business Development as they share their insights and predictions for the future.

Beyond 3D - CEO Roundtable on Digital Transformation

Today for International Women in Engineering Day, we interview two women at Tech Soft 3D, Cour Scalf-Crickenberger and Anca Cimpoaca, about their experiences in the engineering world.

Beyond 3D - International Women in Engineering Day

Recently, Ron Fritz, CEO of Tech Soft 3D, hosted a roundtable discussion with six other technology executives to gather their thoughts on what’s going on in the AEC space, what issues they’re surprised still exist in the year 2023, and what might be on tap for construction in the next 5-10 years. Topics discussed include the challenges inherent to a project-based industry, like construction and friction points created by a lack of industrialization. Additionally, the execs wonder if we should be paying more attention to the business model of construction itself rather than any technical limitations if we want to push the industry to new levels of innovation—and what role AI might have to play.

Challenges and Opportunities Facing AEC

The AEC industry has been talking about Digital Twins for 20 years, but now manufacturing and other industries have adopted the concept and technology as well. Creating and maintaining a digital twin can be difficult, but one way of capturing 3D data and creating 3D models that are used in digital twins is with reality capture technologies. In this episode we talk with Shaun Bryant, owner of CADfm Consulting, publisher of the NotJustCAD newsletter, and co-host of the Beams and Columns podcast, about the transition from 2D to 3D (and how it’s still happening), and the rapid adoption of reality capture technologies that speed up the digital twin process.

Capturing the 3D World Faster than Ever Before

Digital Twins are all the rage, but how many companies are actually using them? Turns out companies aren’t even getting their final digital twin model even though they’ve paid for it. Get your lawyers out and get them to execute on that contract to get you the assets you’ve paid for! Today’s discussion with Melanie Stone, Senior IWMS Consultant for R.O.I. Consulting Group, and author of the Mistress of the Dorkness blog, talks about life in facilities management and all the opportunities being left on the table.

Digital Twins Are Only Valuable if You Use Them

Advances in reality capture technology have taken huge leaps in the past few years, and in this episode we talk with Pete Kelsey, Owner at VCTO Labs, about just how far things have come (some of the stuff is just wicked cool!). These advances lead to questions about creating more agile file formats that can go from scanner to 3D model easier and faster. Going beyond CAD? What does that look like? Listen in and let us know what you think.

Going Beyond CAD to More Innovative, Agile Formats

In today’s episode we talk with Kenneth Wong, Senior Editor at DigitalEngineering24/7, about how AI is making a stronger impact on the design and engineering world now than it did even just 3 years ago. It started with generative design, and now we are seeing AI seep into nearly every aspect of engineering - everything from simulation to digital twins in the metaverse. Listen in and let us know how you think AI will transform the engineering world.

How AI is Impacting Engineering, Design and Simulation

Automotive suppliers take in hundreds of CAD files a day, all varying in format. Consuming and working with all that data is a feat on its own, but now you have finance, marketing, sales and other departments needing information from the 3D models, customers asking for changes, engineering saying they need changes, and now you’ve lost your digital thread. In this episode, Peter West, VP of Marketing at Actify, talks about the value of giving everyone across the enterprise, in every department, access to view and annotate CAD files. Crazy you say? Have a listen and then let us know what you think.

CAD Visualization Across the Enterprise

Today we talk with Ken Alger, a developer advocate at MongoDB, and he was also named one of the top 25 developer advocates for 2019! We discuss how the role of the software developer has changed, what's important to them and also trends in cloud computing.
