Effective techniques you can use to customize building products with sheet metal drawings
Rise of customization in building products Building products are 80% customized and 20% standard
Major areas of customization in building products Product size Material Color Accessories Form and finish
Challenges in addressing customization Iterative drafting process Lengthy approval and design cycle Delayed manufacturing Rising project costs
To overcome these challenges, manufacturers need Faster design approvals Automation of non-productive drafting tasks
